AC AC converter single phase systems

Buildings.Electrical.AC.OnePhase.Conversion.ACACConverter

Information

This is an AC/AC converter, based on a power balance between both circuit sides. The paramater conversionFactor defines the ratio between the RMS voltages as

V2 = conversionFactor V1

where V1 and V2 are the RMS voltages at the primary and secondary sides of the transformer, i.e., the connector N and P, respectively.

The loss of the converter is proportional to the power transmitted. The parameter eta is the efficiency of the transfer. The loss is computed as

Ploss = (1-η) Ptr,

where Ptr is the power transmitted. The model is bi-directional and the power can flow from the primary to the secondary side and vice-versa. Furthermore, reactive power on both side are set to zero.

Note:

This model is derived from Modelica.Electrical.QuasiStationary.SinglePhase.Utilities.IdealACDCConverter.

Information

This is a detailed transformer model that takes into account the winding Joule losses and the leakage reactances on both primary and secondary side. The model also describes the core or iron losses and the losses due to magnetization effects.

The losses are represented by a series of resistances R1, R2, Rm and inductances L1, L2, and Lm.

The model is parameterized using the following parameters

Given the nominal conditions, the model computes the values of the nominal impedances at both primary and secondary side. Given these values, the per unit values are transformed into the actual values of the resistances and inductances.

The magnetization losses can be enabled or disabled using the boolean flag magEffects.

AC DC converter

Buildings.Electrical.AC.OnePhase.Conversion.ACDCConverter

Information

This is an AC/DC converter, based on a power balance between both circuit sides. The paramater conversionFactor defines the ratio between the RMS voltages as

VDC = conversionFactor VAC,

where VDC is the voltage of the DC circuit and VAC is the RMS voltage at the primary side of the transformer.

The loss of the converter is proportional to the power transmitted. The parameter eta is the efficiency of the transfer. The loss is computed as

Ploss = (1-η) Ptr

where Ptr is the power transmitted. The model is bi-directional and the power can flow from both the primary to the secondary side and vice-versa. Furthermore, reactive power on both side are set to 0.

Note:

This model is derived from Modelica.Electrical.QuasiStationary.SinglePhase.Utilities.IdealACDCConverter.
