Abstract

The purpose of this article is to present a method to equalize power imbalances in single-phase loads driven by three-phase voltage source inverters. The objective is to unbalance the line-to-line voltages in order to equalize the individual load power. The method is evaluated under non-linear loads, considering the dispersion of the high-voltage transformer electrical parameters values usually found in ozone generating systems. Two methods are considered for equalizing the load power. In the progressive method, the power equalization is performed by a microcontroller and works setting up the voltage applied over each load in response to power feedback from the other loads. In addition, Fuzzy Logic concepts are also applied, permitting a fast response, in spite of lower precision in the power balancing. Analytical, simulation and experimental results validate both methods. (AU)
