Inhalt:
The need for inexpensive high performance battery systems for stationary and automotive applications stimulates the investigation of Modular Multilevel Converters (MMCs) with integrated battery cells – herein referred to as Modular Multilevel Battery Systems (MMBS). MMBS offer considerable advantages in designing flexible and highly efficient Li-Ion battery systems. This paper compares different MMBS topologies for 3-phase applications and presents their simulation results as well as a prototype design. Suggestions for the design of a MMBS are provided.
