  2. AC-to-AC converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC-to-AC_converter

    Conventional Direct Matrix Converters (Fig. 4) perform voltage and current conversion in one single stage. There is the alternative option of indirect energy conversion by employing the Indirect Matrix Converter (Fig. 5) or the Sparse matrix converter which was invented by Prof. Johann W. Kolar from the ETH Zurich. As with the DC-link based VSI ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_energy_conversion

    The conversion is based on a Traveling-Wave Direct Energy Converter (TWDEC). A gyrotron converter first guides fusion product ions as a beam into a 10-meter long microwave cavity filled with a 10-tesla magnetic field, where 155 MHz microwaves are generated and converted to a high voltage DC output through rectennas.

    The matrix converters are subdivided into two types: direct and indirect converters. A direct matrix converter with three-phase input and three-phase output, the switches in a matrix converter must be bi-directional, that is, they must be able to block voltages of either polarity and to conduct current in either direction.

  5. Electric power conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_conversion

    A power converter is an electrical device for converting electrical energy between alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC). It can also change the voltage or frequency of the current. Power Converters can include simpler tools such as transformer or more complex like a resonant converter.

    indirect AC converter An AC converter with a DC link. indirect AC/DC converter An electronic AC/DC converter with a DC or AC link. indirect commutation A series of commutations from one principal arm to another or back to the original one by successive commutations via one or more auxiliary arms. indirect (power) conversion

  7. High-voltage direct current - Wikipedia

    Long distance HVDC lines carrying hydroelectricity from Canada's Nelson River to this converter station where it is converted to AC for use in southern Manitoba's grid. A high-voltage direct current (HVDC) electric power transmission system uses direct current (DC) for electric power transmission, in contrast with the more common alternating current (AC) transmission systems.

  9. Sparse matrix converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparse_matrix_converter

    Fig 5: Zero DC link current commutation shown for the Sparse Matrix Converter. The drawback of the multistep commutation describe before is its complexity. Indirect matrix converters like the Sparse Matrix Converter provide a degree of control freedom that is not available for the Conventional Direct Matrix Converter.
