The steady state analytical performance of a line commutated inverter fed three phase synchronous motor under variable speed condition is presented. The firing pulses for six silicon-controlled-rectifiers of the three phase inverter are generated by the control circuit in proper sequence with the help of synchronizing signal derived from the induced electromotive force of the synchronous machin...

Multilevel inverters are used in high power and medium voltage applications. Employing multilevel inverter with renewable energy alone, the voltage balance cannot be made because the number of level increases in multilevel inverter the control gets complexity. So voltage imbalance problems are introduced. The voltage imbalance problems can be classified into two types; Midpoint unbalance and th...
