Question: A single - phase voltage source inverter ( VSI ) is connected to a 2 4 0 V / 5 0 Hz utility system, as

A single-phase voltage source inverter (VSI) is connected to a 240V/50Hz utility system, as
shown in Figure 2.
A. Build the circuit of the DC/AC converter for the inverter to output 10A current (RMS) in phase with the grid voltage; Assume bipolar PWM scheme applied to the inverter and the Total harmonic distortion (THD) needs to be less than 5%. answer the following question:
1. Specify a suitable PWM switching frequency, a line inductance L and a DC link
voltage for the inverter. Comment on the specifications. What is the minimum dc-link
voltage required for the inverter to grid connection requirment?
2. Explain how the PWM signals are generated.
3. Present the output current and voltage waveforms. Comments on the effects of the
switching frequency and the inductor on the ripple (THD) of the output current.
4. How to achieve 6 A (RMS) output current with a leading output power factor of 0.866
for the inverter? Present the output current and voltage waveforms.
5. Assume 10% variation for the grid voltage, what is the minimum DC link voltage
required for the grid connection?
