Vs/2-V0=0
Where output voltage V0= Vs/2
Where output current i0 = V0/R= Vs/2R
In case of supply current or switch current, the current iS1 = i0 = Vs/2R, iS2 = 0 and the
diode current iD1 = iD2 = 0.
Case 2 (when switch S2 is ON and S1 is OFF): When switch S2 is ON from a time period of
T/2 to T, the diode D1 and D2 are in reverse bias condition and S1 switch is OFF.
Applying KVL (Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law)
Vs/2+V0=0
Where output voltage V0= -Vs/2
Where output current i0 = V0/R= -Vs/2R
In case of supply current or switch current, the current iS1 = 0, iS2 = i0 = -Vs/2R and the diode
current iD1 = iD2 = 0.
The single-phase half-bridge inverter output voltage waveform is shown in the below
figure.
So output voltage waveform from converting time ‘T’ to ‘‘ωt” axis is shown in the below
figure
Converting Time Axis of the Output Voltage Waveform
When is multiply by zero, it will be zero; When is multiply by T/2, it will be T/2=π; When
is multiply by T, it will be T=2π; When is multiply by 3T/2, it will be T/2=3π and so on. In
this way, we can convert this time axis into the ‘ωt’ axis.
V0 (avg) = 0
I0 (avg) = 0
The RMS value of output voltage and output current is
V0 (RMS)= VS/2
I0 (RMS) = V0 (RMS) /R =VS/2R
The output voltage we are getting in an inverter is not pure sinewave i.e a square wave.
The output voltage with the fundamental component is shown in the below figure.
bn=VS/nᴨ(1-cosnᴨ)
The bn =0 when substituting even numbers (n=2,4,6…..) and bn =2Vs/nπ when
substituting odd numbers (n=1,3,5……). Substitute bn =2Vs/nπ and an=0 in Cn will get
Cn=2Vs/nπ.
ϕn=tan-1(an/bn)=0
V01(ωt)=2 VS/ᴨ * (Sin ωt)
Substitute V0 (avg) = 0 in will get
V01(max) =2VS/ᴨ
The RMS value of the fundamental voltage is
V01(RMS) =2VS/√2ᴨ=√2VS/ᴨ
The fundamental component of the RMS output current is
I01(RMS)= V01(RMS)/R
We have to obtain the distortion factor, the distortion factor is denoted by g.
In the output voltage the total harmonic distortion THD=48.43%, but as per IEEE, the
total harmonic distortion should be 5%.
P01= (V01(rms))2/R=I201(rms)R
By using the above formula we can calculate the fundamental power output.
In this way, we can calculate the various parameters of the single-phase half-bridge
inverter.
