The aim of study of this paper is design and implementation of a simple and efficient soft switched Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for three-phase induction motor drives. Soft-switching techniques have gained popularity in recent times because they offer many advantages over hard-switched Pulse Width Modulated inverters such as higher efficiency, higher power density and better performances. The ...

The B lymphocyte subpopulations producing immunoglobulin (Ig)E and the regulatory T cells modulating this IgE production in normals, and in atopic patients with respiratory allergy, atopic dermatitis, and markedly elevated serum IgE levels (>5,000 ng/ml), were investigated. Peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) were separated into T and B cell fractions and the ability of B cells to produce IgE in...

A traveling wave-type ultrasonic motor (USM) has a self-locking characteristic due to a static frictional force present when its power supply is turned off, because its rotor is pressed strongly to the stator in the USM. We propose a pulse width modulation (PWM) method in consideration of this self-locking characteristic in order to control the motion of USM. The vibration waveform and the driv...

In this paper, characteristics of blushless direct current (BLDC) motor including core loss are analyzed considering pulse width modulation (PWM) of inverter. Input voltage of BLDC motor due to PWM is calculated considering duty ratio and carrier frequency of inverter in order to control torque or speed of BLDC motor. For the calculation of core loss, the input current with harmonics due to PWM...

Pulse width modulation (PWM) has been widely used in power converter control. Most high power level converters operate at switching frequencies up to 500 kHz, while operating frequencies in excess of 1 MHz at high power levels can be achieved using the planar transformer technology. The contribution of this paper is the development of a high-frequency PWM generator architecture for power conver...

This paper presents a novel scalar based pulse width modulation (PWM) algorithm for four-level asymmetrical dual inverter fed induction motor drive. In the conventional carrier based PWM algorithms for dual inverter fed induction motor drive, both inverters will be operated at all modulation indices. But, the proposed PWM algorithm operates only one inverter at lower modulation indices and othe...

With advances in solid-state power electronic devices and microprocessors, various pulse-width-modulation (PWM) techniques have been developed for industrial applications. This paper presents the comparison of two different PWM techniques, the sinusoidal PWM (SPWM) technique and the space-vector PWM (SVPWM) technique applied to two level VSI for micro grid applications. These two methods are co...

Analysis and minimization of output current ripple of multiphase carrier-based PWM inverters are presented in this paper. Analytical expression of rms value of output current ripple of multiphase PWM inverters as a function of the reference signal is first derived. Based on this expression, it is shown that a pure sinusoidal signal is the optimum reference signal that results in minimum output ...

A technique for selecting the element values of the PWM AC chopper circuits to improve the input power factor is presented. This technique analyzes the phase angles of input current, output current and voltage for selecting the optimal value of the filter capacitance. This produces the phase angle of input current in phase with that of input voltage. Therefore, the PWM AC chopper can operate at...
