Figure 3: The primary contributors to bus capacitance are the builtin capacitors of the power supply and the capacitance in the drives. An insuficient capacitor on a power supply will reflect in a poor rectification of the AC power, resulting in large voltage variations of the DC bus voltage under load (see figure 4).
Capacitor bank In order to keep the bus voltages at nominal values, capacitor groups are connected to reduce the power losses so that the voltage drops are also reduced. The capacitors connected to the load bus for power factor improvement cause a voltage rise in the bus they are connected to.
Bus capacitance is the total capacitance of the main DC bus. The primary contributors are the built-in capacitors of the power supply and the VP+ capacitance in the drives (see figure 3). The power supply includes an output capacitance that smooths the harmonics of the AC rectification bridge.
The bus capacitor (Cbus) selection algorithm consists of few simulation iterations of a circuit model based on the output power requirements (Pout), assumed efficiency (η), and the duty cycle of the converter (D) this algorithm enables selection of capacitors that will provide the service life required by the application.
Selecting two 47uf capacitors in parallel for a total of 94 uf yields a minimum bus voltage of 78-V and a total (Ilft) of 924 mA, 100-Hz RMS low frequency current , (462 mA of low frequency current (Ilf) through each Cbus capacitor). Figure 4. Ripple Voltage Simulation, Cbus = 2x47uf
Capacitor Cbus is charged every half line cycle by low frequency current and discharged continuously by the high-frequency current pulses drawn by the converter. This action results in a low frequency ac current (Ilf) and a high frequency ac current (Ihf) passing through Cbus.
