Description
本發明係關於一種設於電力轉換機器之濾波器裝置,特別是關於一種用以降低起因於開關之共用模式電流及EMI(電磁干擾)雜訊流出至交流系統之量之主動濾波器裝置及將主動濾波器裝置設於輸入側之電力轉換裝置。The present invention relates to a filter device provided in a power conversion machine, and more particularly to an active filter device for reducing a common mode current and EMI (electromagnetic interference) noise caused by a switch to an AC system. The active filter device is provided on the input side power conversion device.
隨著電力用半導體元件之特性提升,可實現開關頻率之高頻化。以無停電電源裝置或通訊用電源裝置為代表之電力轉換裝置,基於對高速回應或低噪音之要求、濾波器之小型化要求等,廣泛使用利用PWM(脈寬調變)控制之高頻開關方式。As the characteristics of semiconductor components for power are increased, the switching frequency can be increased. A power conversion device represented by an uninterruptible power supply device or a communication power supply device is widely used for high-frequency switching using PWM (pulse width modulation) control based on requirements for high-speed response or low noise, miniaturization of filters, and the like. the way.
隨著開關頻率之高頻化之進展,透過直流連結部或纜線流至大地之高頻洩漏電流變大。此高頻洩漏電流成為流入交流系統之雜訊,對連接於交流系統之其他裝置造成不良影響而成為社會問題。例如,在無停電電源裝置,特別是將大容量之蓄電池以懸浮方式連接於直流側時,會有大的高頻洩漏電流從此蓄電池及變長之直流纜線流至大地之傾向,此高頻洩漏電流對連接於交流系統之其他交流機器造成不良影響。As the frequency of the switching frequency progresses, the high-frequency leakage current flowing to the ground through the DC link or the cable becomes large. This high-frequency leakage current becomes a noise flowing into the AC system, which adversely affects other devices connected to the AC system and becomes a social problem. For example, in an uninterruptible power supply device, particularly when a large-capacity battery is connected to the DC side in a floating manner, there is a tendency for a large high-frequency leakage current to flow from the battery and the variable-length DC cable to the ground. Leakage currents adversely affect other AC machines connected to the AC system.
作為降低流出至交流系統之高頻洩漏電流之方法,例如已知有專利文獻1所揭示之主動濾波器裝置。圖5係專利文獻1所示之習知雜訊降低裝置及電力轉換裝置的構成 圖。圖5中,接地E0,E1,E2係共通之接地,但為了便於說明分別賦予不同符號。As a method of reducing the high-frequency leakage current flowing to the AC system, for example, an active filter device disclosed in Patent Document 1 is known. 5 is a configuration of a conventional noise reduction device and a power conversion device shown in Patent Document 1. Figure. In Fig. 5, the groundings E0, E1, and E2 are common grounding, but different symbols are given for convenience of explanation.
圖5中,具備三相交流電源1、電力轉換裝置3、負載5、及設於三相交流電源1與電力轉換裝置3間之主動濾波器裝置7。In FIG. 5, a three-phase AC power supply 1, a power conversion device 3, a load 5, and an active filter device 7 provided between the three-phase AC power supply 1 and the power conversion device 3 are provided.
作為電流檢測器之電流變壓器20,捲繞有1匝數之電源線1a~1c與N匝數之檢測線20a,藉由檢測線20a以檢測比1/N(N>1)檢測電力轉換裝置3產生之共用模式電流io且輸出為檢測電流io/N。電容器C2具有電容器C1之(N-1)倍之導納。The current transformer 20 as a current detector is wound with a number of power lines 1a to 1c and N lines of detection lines 20a, and the detection line 20a detects the power conversion device with a detection ratio of 1/N (N>1). The generated common mode current io is 3 and the output is the detection current io/N. Capacitor C2 has an (N-1) times admittance of capacitor C1.
由電晶體11a,11b構成之放大器11之輸入(基極)與輸出(射極)間連接有檢測線20a,在電容器C1流過與檢測電流相同之電流io/N。又,在電容器C2流過在電容器C1流過之電流io/N之(N-1)倍之電流(N-1)io/N。亦即,在接地E1流過檢測電流io/N之N倍之電流io。A detection line 20a is connected between an input (base) and an output (emitter) of the amplifier 11 composed of the transistors 11a and 11b, and a current io/N which is the same as the detection current flows through the capacitor C1. Further, a current (N-1) io/N of (N-1) times the current io/N flowing through the capacitor C1 flows through the capacitor C2. That is, a current io that is N times the detection current io/N flows through the ground E1.
由於檢測電流係電力轉換裝置3之共用模式電流io之1/N倍,因此流過放大器11之電流與共用模式電流io相同,可抵銷流出至交流系統之共用模式電流。藉此,可降低流出至交流系統之共用模式電流。Since the detection current is 1/N times the common mode current io of the power conversion device 3, the current flowing through the amplifier 11 is the same as the common mode current io, and the common mode current flowing out to the AC system can be offset. Thereby, the common mode current flowing out to the AC system can be reduced.
然而,圖5所示之電力轉換裝置3中,流過大的補償電流時,會有電容器C1,C2之端子電壓變高之情形。此端子電壓超過放大器11之電源電壓時,放大器11飽和,無法獲得共用模式電流之降低效果。為了解決此問題,根據最大補償電流設計放大器11之電源電壓。However, in the power conversion device 3 shown in FIG. 5, when a large compensation current flows, the terminal voltages of the capacitors C1 and C2 may increase. When the terminal voltage exceeds the power supply voltage of the amplifier 11, the amplifier 11 is saturated, and the effect of reducing the common mode current cannot be obtained. In order to solve this problem, the power supply voltage of the amplifier 11 is designed according to the maximum compensation current.
圖6及圖7係習知主動濾波器裝置之直流電源之具體構成例。圖6中,僅以二極體D7及電容器C5使交流系統之三相交流電源1之交流電壓整流平滑並產生放大器11之直流電源(動作電源)。圖7中,以二極體D7,D8,D9、電容器C5,C6、電晶體Q7及電阻13c使交流系統之三相交流電源1之交流電壓1/2電壓整流平滑並產生放大器11之直流電源(動作電源)。6 and 7 show a specific configuration example of a DC power supply of a conventional active filter device. In Fig. 6, the AC voltage of the three-phase AC power supply 1 of the AC system is rectified by the diode D7 and the capacitor C5 to generate a DC power supply (operation power supply) of the amplifier 11. In Fig. 7, the diodes D7, D8, D9, capacitors C5, C6, transistor Q7 and resistor 13c rectify the AC voltage 1/2 voltage of the three-phase AC power supply 1 of the AC system and generate the DC power of the amplifier 11. (action power).

然而,圖6、圖7所示之構成,對構成放大器11之電晶體11a,11b恆施加直流電源Vc(電容器C5之端子電壓)之大致一半之電壓,有電晶體11a,11b之散熱變大之缺點。又,電晶體11a,11b之損耗與放大器11之電源電壓(及補償電流)成正比。即使用以補償(抵銷)共用模式電流之補償電流較小時,亦產生大的放大器損耗,系統整體之效率變差。However, in the configuration shown in Figs. 6 and 7, the voltage of the DC power supply Vc (the terminal voltage of the capacitor C5) is constantly applied to the transistors 11a and 11b constituting the amplifier 11, and the heat dissipation of the transistors 11a and 11b becomes large. The shortcomings. Moreover, the losses of the transistors 11a, 11b are proportional to the supply voltage (and compensation current) of the amplifier 11. Even if the compensation current for compensating (offsetting) the common mode current is small, a large amplifier loss is generated, and the overall efficiency of the system is deteriorated.

放大器11以振幅度1將流過檢測線10a之i0 加以增幅,使電流經由低頻分離電容器C1流至接地E1。此時,以二極體D8及電容器C3使電晶體11a,11b之射極之輸出整流平滑,將電阻R1與電阻R2之連接點之電壓檢測為放大器11之輸出振幅,根據檢測之輸出振幅檢測訊號使可變直流電源30之直流輸出電壓Vr為可變。是以,用以抵銷共用模式電流之補償電流較小時,放大器11之電源電壓變小,可降低放大器11損耗。The amplifier 11 amplifies i 0 flowing through the detection line 10a by the amplitude degree 1, and causes the current to flow to the ground E1 via the low frequency separation capacitor C1. At this time, the output of the emitters of the transistors 11a, 11b is rectified by the diode D8 and the capacitor C3, and the voltage at the junction of the resistor R1 and the resistor R2 is detected as the output amplitude of the amplifier 11, and the amplitude of the output is detected according to the detection. The signal causes the DC output voltage Vr of the variable DC power source 30 to be variable. Therefore, when the compensation current for canceling the common mode current is small, the power supply voltage of the amplifier 11 becomes small, and the loss of the amplifier 11 can be reduced.
圖2係顯示與實施例1之主動濾波器裝置之電容器C3(與電阻R1與電阻R2之連接點之電壓對應)之兩端電壓對應使可變直流電源30之直流輸出電壓Vr為可變之情況。如圖2所示,與電容器C3之電壓成正比,可變直流電源30之直流輸出電壓Vr呈直線變化。2 shows that the voltage across the capacitor C3 (corresponding to the voltage at the junction of the resistor R1 and the resistor R2) of the active filter device of the first embodiment corresponds to the DC output voltage Vr of the variable DC power source 30 being variable. Happening. As shown in FIG. 2, in direct current with the voltage of the capacitor C3, the DC output voltage Vr of the variable DC power source 30 changes linearly.
圖3係實施例2之主動濾波器裝置及電力轉換裝置的構成圖。圖3所示之實施例2之主動濾波器裝置7-2,相對圖1所示之實施例1之主動濾波器裝置7-1,在電流變壓器20捲繞有N匝數(N>1,例如10匝數)之檢測線20a。Fig. 3 is a view showing the configuration of an active filter device and a power conversion device of the second embodiment; The active filter device 7-2 of the second embodiment shown in FIG. 3 is wound with a N-turn (N>1 in the current transformer 20 with respect to the active filter device 7-1 of the first embodiment shown in FIG. For example, 10 turns of the detection line 20a.
在電晶體11a,11b之射極與接地端子E之間連接有低頻分離電容器C2。低頻分離電容器C2具有低頻分離電容器C1之導納之9倍之導納。亦即,低頻分離電容器C2具有低頻分離電容器C1之電容之9倍之電容值。A low frequency separation capacitor C2 is connected between the emitters of the transistors 11a, 11b and the ground terminal E. The low frequency separation capacitor C2 has an admittance of 9 times the admittance of the low frequency separation capacitor C1. That is, the low frequency separation capacitor C2 has a capacitance value nine times that of the low frequency separation capacitor C1.
根據以上述方式構成之實施例2之主動濾波器裝置,首先,在電流變壓器20,共用模式電流i0 流過1匝數之電源線1a~1c時,在10匝數之檢測線20a流過共用模式電流之十分之一之電流i1 =i0 /10。According to the active filter device of the second embodiment constructed as described above, first, in the current transformer 20, when the common mode current i 0 flows through the power supply lines 1a to 1c of one turn, the detection line 20a of 10 turns flows. The current i 1 = i 0 /10 of one of the common mode currents.
放大器11等效於具有以使流過低頻分離電容器C1之電流i1 相等於電流i0 /10之方式控制電壓之增幅部V1及具有與增幅部V1之電壓相同之電壓、用以使電流i2 =9i1 =9i0 /10流過具有低頻分離電容器C1之9倍之電容之低頻分離電容器C2之增幅部V2。The amplifier 11 is equivalent to having an amplitude increasing portion V1 for controlling the voltage so that the current i 1 flowing through the low-frequency separation capacitor C1 is equal to the current i 0 /10 and a voltage having the same voltage as that of the amplification portion V1 for making the current i 2 = 9i 1 = 9i 0 /10 The amplification portion V2 of the low-frequency separation capacitor C2 having a capacitance nine times that of the low-frequency separation capacitor C1 flows.
亦即,增幅部V1以振幅度1將檢測線20a檢測之共用模式電流之十分之一之電流i0 /10加以增幅,使電流經由低頻分離電容器C1流至接地E1。又,增幅部V2使流過低頻分離電容器C1之電流i1 =i0 /10之9倍之電流i2 =9i1 =9i0 /10經由低頻分離電容器C2流至接地E1。That is, the amplification unit V1 amplifies the current i 0 /10 which is one tenth of the common mode current detected by the detection line 20a by the amplitude degree 1, and causes the current to flow to the ground E1 via the low frequency separation capacitor C1. Further, the amplification unit V2 causes the current i 2 = 9i 1 = 9i 0 / 10 which is 9 times the current i 1 = i 0 / 10 flowing through the low-frequency separation capacitor C1 to flow to the ground E1 via the low-frequency separation capacitor C2.
是以,在接地E1流過與共用模式電流i0 相同值之電流 i0 ,因此可降低流出至交流系統之共用模式電流。因此,可降低產生之雜訊,謀求低價且小型化。Therefore, the current flowing through the ground E1 i 0 the same value as the common-mode current i 0, thus reducing the common mode current flows to the AC systems. Therefore, the generated noise can be reduced, and the price can be reduced and miniaturized.
又,以二極體D8及電容器C3使電晶體11a,11b之射極之輸出整流平滑,將電阻R1與電阻R2之連接點之電壓檢測為放大器11之輸出振幅,根據檢測之輸出振幅檢測訊號使可變直流電源30之直流輸出電壓Vr為可變。是以,用以抵銷共用模式電流之補償電流較小時,放大器11之電源電壓變小,可降低正常時之放大器11損耗。Further, the output of the emitters of the transistors 11a and 11b is rectified and smoothed by the diode D8 and the capacitor C3, and the voltage at the junction of the resistor R1 and the resistor R2 is detected as the output amplitude of the amplifier 11, and the output amplitude detection signal is detected based on the detected output. The DC output voltage Vr of the variable DC power source 30 is made variable. Therefore, when the compensation current for canceling the common mode current is small, the power supply voltage of the amplifier 11 becomes small, and the loss of the amplifier 11 in the normal state can be reduced.
圖4係實施例3之主動濾波器裝置及電力轉換裝置的構成圖。圖4所示之實施例3之主動濾波器裝置7-3,相對圖3所示之實施例2之主動濾波器裝置7-2,取代電容器C1,C2設置電阻R3,R4、電容器C4,將電阻R3,R4串聯並連接於電晶體11a,11b之基極與射極之間,在電阻R3,R4之連接點與接地端子E之間連接電容器C4。4 is a configuration diagram of an active filter device and a power conversion device of the third embodiment. The active filter device 7-3 of the third embodiment shown in FIG. 4 is provided with resistors R3, R4 and capacitor C4 instead of the capacitors C1 and C2 with respect to the active filter device 7-2 of the embodiment 2 shown in FIG. The resistors R3 and R4 are connected in series and connected between the base and the emitter of the transistors 11a and 11b, and a capacitor C4 is connected between the connection point of the resistors R3 and R4 and the ground terminal E.
電阻R4具有電阻R3之導納(阻抗值之倒數)之9倍之導納。亦即,電阻R4具有電阻R3之1/9倍之阻抗值。Resistor R4 has an admittance of 9 times the admittance of the resistor R3 (the reciprocal of the impedance value). That is, the resistor R4 has an impedance value of 1/9 times the resistance R3.
根據以上述方式構成之實施例3之主動濾波器裝置,首先,在電流變壓器20,共用模式電流i0 流過1匝數之電源線1a~1c時,在10匝數之檢測線20a流過共用模式電流之十分之一之電流i1 =i0 /10。According to the active filter device of the third embodiment constructed as described above, first, in the current transformer 20, when the common mode current i 0 flows through the power supply lines 1a to 1c of one turn, the detection line 20a of 10 turns flows. The current i 1 = i 0 /10 of one of the common mode currents.
放大器11等效於具有以使流過電阻R3之電流i1 相等於電流i0 /10之方式控制電壓之增幅部V1及具有與增幅部V1之電壓相同之電壓、用以使電流i2 =9i1 =9i0 /10流過具 有電阻R3之1/9倍之阻抗值之電阻R4之增幅部V2。The amplifier 11 is equivalent to having an amplitude increasing portion V1 for controlling the voltage so that the current i 1 flowing through the resistor R3 is equal to the current i 0 /10 and a voltage having the same voltage as that of the amplifying portion V1 for making the current i 2 = 9i 1 = 9i 0 /10 flows through the amplification portion V2 of the resistor R4 having an impedance value 1/9 times the resistance R3.
亦即,增幅部V1以振幅度1將檢測線20a檢測之共用模式電流之十分之一之電流i0 /10加以增幅,使電流經由電阻R3與電容器C4流至接地E1。又,增幅部V2使流過電阻R3之電流i1 =i0 /10之9倍之電流i2 =9i1 =9i0 /10經由電阻R4與電容器C4流至接地E1。That is, the amplification unit V1 amplifies the current i 0 /10 which is one tenth of the common mode current detected by the detection line 20a by the amplitude degree 1, and causes the current to flow to the ground E1 via the resistor R3 and the capacitor C4. Further, the amplifying portion V2 causes the current i 2 = 9i 1 = 9i 0 / 10 which is 9 times the current i 1 = i 0 / 10 flowing through the resistor R3 to flow to the ground E1 via the resistor R4 and the capacitor C4.
是以,在接地E1流過與共用模式電流i0 相同值之電流i0 ,因此可降低流出至交流系統之共用模式電流。因此,可降低產生之雜訊,謀求低價且小型化。Therefore, the current flowing through the ground E1 i 0 the same value as the common-mode current i 0, thus reducing the common mode current flows to the AC systems. Therefore, the generated noise can be reduced, and the price can be reduced and miniaturized.
又,以二極體D8及電容器C3使電晶體11a,11b之射極之輸出整流平滑,將電阻R1與電阻R2之連接點之電壓檢測為放大器11之輸出振幅,根據檢測之輸出振幅檢測訊號使可變直流電源30之直流輸出電壓Vr為可變。是以,用以抵銷共用模式電流之補償電流較小時,放大器11之電源電壓變小,可降低放大器11損耗。Further, the output of the emitters of the transistors 11a and 11b is rectified and smoothed by the diode D8 and the capacitor C3, and the voltage at the junction of the resistor R1 and the resistor R2 is detected as the output amplitude of the amplifier 11, and the output amplitude detection signal is detected based on the detected output. The DC output voltage Vr of the variable DC power source 30 is made variable. Therefore, when the compensation current for canceling the common mode current is small, the power supply voltage of the amplifier 11 becomes small, and the loss of the amplifier 11 can be reduced.
