In this paper, the cascade 3-phase IHMCL inverter using two low frequency transformers is proposed. The proposed inverter is constructed by connecting a 3-phase IHCML inverter. the cascade 3-phase IHCML inverter has several advantages. One advantage is that only one input power source is required because of using transformers to isolate. Another advantage is that the switching frequency of the high power switches is almost fundamental frequency of reference and the other the switching frequency of the low power switches is higher. It can be known that cascade 3 phase IHCML inverter has the excellent efficiency and the outstanding electric quality. lastly, we tested the 5kW cascade 3-phase IHCML inverter to clarify the proposed electric circuit and reasonableness of control signal for the proposed inverter.

This paper proposes a new double-connected 3-phase voltage source inverter with improved output voltage waveform. An auxiliary single-phase inverter injects a ripple voltage into the double- connected inverter to convert 12-step operation to 36-step operation. The KVA rating of the output phase-shifting transformer is reduced by employing a harmonic canceling reactor. The whole rectifier-inverter system including the proposed technique is introduced and the experimental results are provided.

In this paper, we applied a three-level T-type inverter with the one more voltage level than two-level inverter. However, the three-level T-type inverter has a systematic problem with voltage unbalances. So neutral point control is essential. Therefore, the voltage unbalance problem of the three - phase inverter was confirmed to be controlled within 5V using the neutral point control algorithm in charge and discharge mode. In addition, total harmonic distortion was reduced in three phases (u phase, v phase, w phase) when neutral point control was performed in charging mode and also in three phases (u phase, v phase, w phase) in discharge mode. In this paper suggests a neutral point control algorithm to solve the voltage unbalance of a three-level T-type inverter, and shows the improvement of the performance of the proposed algorithm through experiment.

In this paper, three kinds of the inverter topologies for the variable speed drive of 2-phase induction motor are compared and analyzed. The 2-phase inverters are classified into 2-leg, 3-leg, and 4-leg types depending on the number of power switching devices. And they use the output voltage vectors of the different forms according to the inverter topologies. Based on the comparative analyzed results, the effective values of output voltage have been defined by the linear modulation range. Therefore, the motor design guideline is proposed in order to decide a rated voltage of 2-phase induction motor according to the inverter topologies. Also, the computer simulations are carried out to verify the output voltage and current characteristics of each inverter topology.

This paper deals with the phase converter. The single-phase inverter with 120.deg.C phase-lagging is used for the phase conversion. As the waveform of the inverter is rectangular, the output waveforms of the three-phase lines include the harmonics. Single-phase operation by using phase converter and three-phase balanced operation of the three-phase induction motor are compared, and the effects of the harmonics are analyzed and discussed.

It is complex to realize the reference voltage vector by the space vector PWM method in three-leg two-phase inverter In this paper a new PWM technique for three-leg two-phase inverter fed two-phase induction motor is poroposed assuming that three-leg two-phase inverter is equivalent circuit for 'four-leg two-phase inverter with the connected two windings'. From assumption, six sectors are decreased to four sectors, and simple sinusoidal PWM method instead of SVPWM is applied to three-leg two-phase inverter. Also, the switching pattern to determine the switching periods at each sector is proposed. Practical verification of theoretical predictions is presented to confirm the capabilities of the new techniques.

The number of transformer and the size of transformer in inverter using 3-phase transformer could be reduced compare with a multi-level inverter using single phase transformer. but still the 3-phase transformer inverter needs many switches. In this study, we proposed the isolated multi-level inverter using 3-phase transformers and common arm, in this paper. Also, using phase angle control method with switching frequency equal to output fundamental frequency, harmonics component of output voltage and switching loss can be reduced. Finally, We tested multi-level inverter to clarify electric circuit md reasonableness through Matlab simulation and experiment by using prototype inverter.
