A zero-voltage transition (ZVT) soft-switching inverter for an induction motor drive is developed. The proposed soft-switchng inverter is formed from the traditional pulse-wi dth modulated (PWM) inverter by simply augmenting with auxiliary resonant circuits, and the soft switching is acheved through applying PWM switching control signals with suitable delays for the main and auxiliary switches....

The objective of this paper is to present a multilevel inverter topology for induction motor with open-end winding. Multi level inversion is achieved by feeding an open-end winding induction motor with a two-level inverter in cascade with three auxiliary circuits from one end and a single two-level inverter from the other end of the motor. The combined inverter and auxiliary system with open-en...

This paper presents the development of a resonant DC link inverter for an electric vehicle application. The resonant link frequency is approximately 70kHz and the inverter drives a low voltage 2.2kW AC induction motor. The IGBT inverter operates off a 240V DC supply and an active clamping circuit limits the resonant bus voltage to 500V. A synchronized PWM scheme is used to modulate the resonant...

Multilevel inverters offer several advantages compared to the conventional 3-phase bridge inverter in terms of lower dv/dt stresses, lower electromagnetic compatibility, smaller rating and better output features. This project presents a 9-level diode Clamped inverter using Sinusoidal pulse width Modulation techniques as the control strategies. The algorithm has been developed within the carrier...

Multilevel cascaded and hybrid inverter systems conventionally use three level bipolar PWM for each individual inverter, with their carriers phase shifted to achieve maximum harmonic cancellation within each phase leg. This has been shown to give a harmonic performance equivalent to APOD modulation of a NPC multilevel inverter, when the switching frequencies are scaled to achieve the same numbe...
