Absrracl--A dual two-level inverter fed open-end winding induction motor drive is proposed in this paper. A total of 64 voltage space phasor combinations are possible in this scheme as each inverter produces eight voltage space phasors. The proposed scheme produces voltage space phasor locations similar to that of a 3-level inverter. In a 3-level Inverter the series connected DC link capacitors...

This paper combines quasi-Z-source into a typical five-level inverter, which includes two dc voltage sources, two quasi-Z-sources and five switching devices. In this structure, the output voltage amplitude is not limited to dc voltage source and it can be increased by quasi-Z-source. Besides, due to nature of Z-source families, this new structure is reliable and higher efficiency. Also, in this...

In high power high voltage application BLDC motor are widely used because of high efficiency, simple construction, low cost less maintenance and high torque or high output power per unit volume. For driving the BLDC motor we required inverter. PWM inverter which gives good performance. In two level inverter there is a problem of harmonics distortion, lower electromagnetic interference, high DC ...

The role of multilevel inverters in improving power quality has been already proved long back ago. The major concern in using multi level inverters is the number of switches used in it. As the level of inverter increases. So there is a need to reduce the component count in multilevel inverter. In this paper we use a statcom which is consists of a multilevel inverter with reduced switch count. T...
