Abstract
 As the deployment of renewable generation increases in the worldwide electrical grids, the development of distributed energy storage becomes more and more of an essential requirement. Energy storage devices connected at Medium Voltage allows for much higher powered deployments and this Ph.D. will focus on the power converter used to interface the energy storage device to the electrical grid. Multi-level converters can be used to provide this interface without huge ltering requirements or the need of a Low Frequency step up transformer. However traditional Multi-level converter topologies require a large number of electrolytic capacitors, reducing the reliability and increasing the cost. Multi-level converters constructed from a Cycloconverter Topology do not require any additional electrolytic capacitors, however the High Frequency transformer, used to provide isolation has to be considerably larger. This Ph.D. will investigate a novel hybrid converter topology to provide an interface between an energy storage device, such as a super-capacitor or battery, to the Medium Voltage grid, designed for high reliability and power density. This topology is called The Hybrid Cycloconverter Topology and is based on a Cycloconverter Topology connected to an auxiliary 3-Phase VSI. A comprehensive simulation study is carried out to investigate the semiconductor losses of this novel converter topology and compared against two alternative topologies. An experimental converter is constructed to validate the theory of operation and to justify its e ectiveness.

(Abstract)
 Recently, different with the conventional load, the present load devices such as computers, Automated production equipments, precision electronic devices are very sensitive to the power quality. These load devices sensitive to the power quality are increasing sharply and people are paying more and more attention to the AC-AC power conversion devices like instantaneous voltage-compensators, phase-shifters, electronic transformer which are installed in the side of power system or consumers. Similarly, the AC chopper, PWM AC-AC converter, matrix converter and Z-Source AC-AC converter also belong to the AC-AC power conversion devices referred above. among these devices, due to the latest research method, the Z-Source AC-AC converter has quite simply structure and control method and is possible to boost output voltage in phase and boost or buck output voltage out of phase with respect to input voltage.

Nevertheless, since the Z-Source AC-AC converter operates in DCM (Discontinuous Current Mode), stress of the elements is bigger compared with the case of CCM(Continuous Current Mode) and it's very disadvantageous viewed from the waveform. It is probable to solve the problems referred above by Quasi Z-Source AC-AC converter. However, the operation of buck mode is impossible, even though it's possible to boost or buck the output voltage out of phase and boost the output voltage in phase.

In this study, a single-phase quasi Z-source AC-AC converters with a series connection of the output terminals is proposed. The proposed system has configuration that the input terminals of two quasi Z-source AC-AC converters are connected in parallel and its output terminals are connected in series. for output of in-phase buck mode with respect to the input ,the intersection switching control is presented and the current flow in both of the out phase mode and in phase mode and the output voltage's forming process was shown.

In addition, a DVR(Dynamic Voltage Restorer) though using a single-phase quasi Z-source AC-AC converter connected with the output terminals in series is proposed. In general, among the problems which cause the lower quality, the Voltage Swell or Voltage Sag could be the major one which brings great influence to the consumers with high frequency and sensitive load. The Voltage Swell which is the increasement of the supply voltage's magnitude in duration of 0.5∼30[cycles] while the voltage magnitude is 1.1∼1.8[p.u] of nominal voltage and the Voltage Sag which is the drop of the supply voltage's magnitude in duration of 0.5∼30[cycles] while the voltage magnitude is 1.1∼1.8[p.u] of nominal voltage can lead to the accidents happening in most of the nearby distribution circuits. Such Voltage Swell or Voltage Sag causes the misoperation or suspension of work and bring about Nevertheless, since the Z-Source AC-AC converter operates in DCM (Discontinuous Current Mode), stress of the elements is bigger compared with the case of CCM(Continuous Current Mode) and it's very disadvantageous viewed from the waveform.
