Simulation of Output Voltage Waveforms of Power Electronic Converters and Measurement of their Average and Effective Values by Using LABVIEW
Main Article Content
Abstract
The target of this research is to investigate the possibility of finding online true RMS or average value for a none uniform or distorted ac signal. Such signals are frequently found at the outputs of power electronic converters as a result of signal chopping when using power electronic switches. This is an important issue especially when it is required to stabilize or regulate the effective voltage value at the output of the converter. Using Lab VIEW environment, we proposed a practical methodology in order to simulate different types of signals associated with different converter configurations and to find online their RMS values. Results of simulation are compared with known analytical equations and the results are found to be the same.
