Abstract

This paper discuss the comparative analysis of the Flying Capacitor Multi Level Matrix Converter and the H-Bridge Multi Level Matrix Converter topologies (replacing the conventional two stage converter and simple matrix converter) connected to a DFIG machine feeding the rotor from the grid to increase the efficiency of the machine. The THDs are compared with the interconnection of the DFIG machine to the grid with flying capacitor and H-Bridge multi level matrix converter. The complete analysis and graphical representations of the voltage and currents of the DFIG machine stator are shown with FFT analysis of current waveform in MATLAB Simulink software.
