Received May 11, 2013 Revised July 10, 2013 Accepted July 28, 2013 This paper cite comparative performance characteristics of Z-Source inverter fed IM drives with mostly used VSI & CSI fed IM drives. ZSI has both voltages buck and boost capabilities as they allow inverters to be operated in the shoot through state. It employs an exclusive Z-Source network (LC component) to dc-link the main inve...

In order to utilize the energy from the renewable energy sources, power conversion system is necessary, in which the voltage source inverter (VSI) is usually the last stage for injecting power to the grid. It is an economical solution to add the function of power quality conditioning to the grid-connected VSI in the low-voltage distribution system. Two multifunctional VSIs are studied in this p...

In this paper represent the simulation analysis of space vector pulse width modulated(SVPWM) inverter fed Induction motor drives.

The most commo...

This Paper introduces new hybrid converter topologies which can supply simultaneously AC as well as DC from a single DC source. The new Hybrid Converter is derived from the single switch controlled Boost converter by replacing the controlled switch with voltage source inverter (VSI). This new hybrid converter has the advantages like reduced number of switches as compared with conventional desig...

This project presents the operation of a distributed generation (DG) system driven by a dcdc step-up converter and a dc-ac voltage source inverter (VSI) interfaced with the power grid by Fuzzy Controller. To create a stable mode when different kinds of loads are connected locally or when working under contingency, the step-up converter must regulate the dc link voltage, allowing the VSI to stab...

Renewable energy sources (RES) place main role in present days to generate power. The Switched Boost Inverter is a single stage dc-ac power converter, whose output voltage can be either greater or less than its input dc voltage. This converter can supply both dc and ac loads, simultaneously, which makes it suitable for micro grid applications. Also, this converter allows shoot-through of the in...

This paper presents a simple modified unipolar carrier-based pulsewidth modulation (CBPWM) strategy for the three-level neutral-point-clamped (NPC) voltage source inverter (VSI). Analytical expressions for the relationship between modulation reference signals and output voltages are derived. The proposed modulation technique for the three-level NPC VSI includes the maximum and minimum of the th...

The main objective of the paper is to control the speed of an induction machine with scalar control technique. Induction motor (IM) because of its poor dynamic response in comparison to the DC motor drives. A Voltage Source Inverter (VSI), it is possible to control directly the stator flux linkage and the electromagnetic torque by the optimum selection of inverter switching vectors. The scalar ...

Adjustable speed drive system requires variable voltage and frequency supply which is invariably obtained from a three-phase voltage source inverter (VSI). A number of Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) schemes are used to obtain variable voltage and frequency supply from an inverter. The most widely used PWM schemes for a three-phase VSI are carrier-based sinusoidal PWM and space vector PWM (SVPWM)....
