Evaluation of output connections of interleaved dc-converter stage for photovoltaic ac-module configurations
Thierry Meynard
University of Toulouse
T.A. Meynard graduated from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure d’Electrotechnique, d’Electronique, d’Hydraulique de Toulouse in 1985, became a Doctor of the Institut National Polytechnique de Toulouse, France, in 1988 and was then an invited researcher at the Université du Québec à Trois Rivières, Canada, in 1989. He joined the Laboratoire d'Electrotechnique et d'Electronique Industrielle as a full-time researcher in 1990 and was Head of the Static Converter Group at the LEEI from 1994 to 2001. He is now part-time consultant with Cirtem on a regular basis, Directeur de Recherches CNRS at the LAPLACE, and associate director of the national program 3DPHI.His research interests were initially related to series multicell converters and he is co-inventor of several topologies transferred to Alstom and ABB with main applications in the field of industrial drives (0.5-10MW, 1-10kV). Since 2000 he focused on parallel multicell converters for high performance applications and integration for power electronics.
Abstract
The continuous increased installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems have made possible the interest in their development, oriented to reach a high efficiency system. There are four traditional configurations of... [ view full abstract ]
