A Non-Sinusoidal Reference Wave for Pwm Ac Drives

Abstract:

In this paper we propose a suitable reference wave for Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) AC Drives. Staircase reference waves whose levels are calculated to eliminate certain harmonics are studied and a certain staircase reference waveform with L levels is constructed. When L is made very large in limit, this staircase waveform approaches a continuous one which is called Quasine (Quasi + Sine). This approach compared to the classical harmonic elimination method has the advantage that the magnitude of non-triplen harmonics is reduced. A computer program by TURBO PASCAL 6  was developed to enable us to have a comparison between the harmonic contents of output voltage for various reference waveforms.

Fuzzy-tuning current-vector control of a three-phase PWM inverter for high-performance AC drives

This paper proposes a new discrete fuzzy-tuning current-vector control (FTC) scheme for three-phase pulsewidth modulation (PWM) inverters. The proposed current control scheme can achieve fast transient responses and, at the same time, have very low total harmonic distortion in output current during steady-state operation. The proposed FTC scheme generates quasi-optimum PWM patterns by using a c...

A Novel Soft-Switched PWM Inverter for AC Motor Drives - Power Electronics, IEEE Transactions on

AbstructA novel soft-switched inverter topology is derived from the passively clamped quasi-resonant link (PCQRL) circuit. By introducing magnetic coupling between the two resonant inductors, the number of auxiliary switches can be reduced from two to one, and only a single magnetic core is required for the resonant dc link. An analysis of this novel PCQRL topology with coupled inductors is pre...

Inverter Nonlinearities Estimation and Compensation for High Performance PWM VSI based AC Drives

AC drives based on pulse width modulation (PWM) voltage source inverters (VSI’s) have many drawbacks, Especially for high performances applications. The inverter nonlinearities such as dead time and power devices voltage drop are one of the main reasons. In this paper a new method to estimate and compensate inverter nonlinearities is presented. The proposed method is based on Model Reference Ad...

Power Factor Improvement and Harmonic Current Reduction in Dual Feedback Pwm Controlled Ac/dc Drives

The electrical power industry has grown rapidly and loads are changing from simple, non-electronic loads to electronic ones. These electronic loads draw a non-sinusoidal current even when the supply voltage is perfectly sinusoidal. In this paper PWM controller with dual feedback loop with simple single-stage single-switch input-current shaping circuit was designed, simulated and tested for AC/D...
