This paper proposes and describes the design and operational principles of a three-phase three-level nine switch voltage source inverter. The proposed topology consists of three bi-directional switches inserted between the source and the full-bridge power switches of the classical three-phase inverter. As a result, a three-level output voltage waveform and a significant suppression of load harmonics contents are obtained at the inverter output. The harmonics content of the proposed multilevel inverter can be reduced by half compared with two-level inverters. A Fourier analysis of the output waveform is performed and the design is optimized to obtain the minimum total harmonic distortion. The full-bridge power switches of the classical three-phase inverter operate at the line frequency of 50Hz, while the auxiliary circuit switches operate at twice the line frequency. To validate the proposed topology, both simulation and analysis have been performed. In addition, a prototype has been designed, implemented and tested. Selected simulation and experimental results have been provided.

일반적으로 3상 BLBC 전동기 구동을 하기 위해서는 6-스위치 인버터와 회전속도를 제어하기 위해서는 회전속도와 회전자 위치에 대한 정보를 필요로 한다. 본 논문에서는 3상 BLDC 전동기 구동을 위한 방법으로서 4-스위치 인버터와 회전자 위치를 간접적으로 검출하는 센서리스 구동방식을 제안하였다. PM BLBC 전동기의 고정자전압 특성중 하나인 3고조파 전압 성분을 이용하여 기존의 위치 검출 센서인 Hall-ICs의 신호를 생성하여 회전자의 위치를 판별함과 동시에 속도 센서를 대신하여 사용할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다.

This paper proposes high speed SRM drive system for blower with a new 4-level inverter and precise excitation position generator. For the high speed blower, a proper 12/8 SRM is designed and analyzed. In order to get a fast build-up and demagnetization of excitation a current, now 4-level inverter system is proposed. The proposed 4-level inverter has additional charge capacitor, power switch and diode in the conventional asymmetric converter. The charged high voltage is supplied to the phase winding for fast current build-up, and demagnetization current is charged to additional capacitor of 4-level inverter. In addition, a precise excitation position generator can reduce turn-on and turn-off angle error according to sampling period of digital control system. The proposed high speed SRM drive system is verified by computer simulation.

토크, 효율 등 전동기의 최대특성을 얻기 위해 모든 전동기는 각 전동기 특성에 맞게 설계된 범용인버터를 기본적으로 사용한다. 그러나 최근 연구 결과들을 살펴보면 BLDC 범용인버터인 6-스위치 인버터를 이용한 SRM 구동 연구, 3상 BLDC 전동기를 4-스위치 인버터를 이용한 구동 연구사례들을 살펴볼 수 있다. 따라서 기존 범용인버터에서 벗어나 각 전동기를 구동할 시킬 수 있는 구동 및 제어에 대한 여러 방법에 대해 접근하여 연구 방법들을 모색할 수 있다. 이러한 연구 경향에 맞춰 본 논문에서는 SRM 구동용 컨버터인 C- dump 형태의 컨버터를 BLDC 전동기의 구동 드라이버로 적용하여 이에 대한 특성과 가능성에 관해 연구하였다.

The efficient power MOSFET inverter applied for a simple and low cost power supply is proposed for driving the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) lamp load. For decades, the DBD phenomenon has been used for ozone gas production in industry. In this research, the ultraviolet and visible light sources utilizing the DBD lamp is considered as the load for solid-state high frequency power supply. It is found that the simple voltage-source single-ended quasi-resonant ZVS inverter with only one active power switch could effectively drive this load with the output power up to 700 W. The pulse density modulation based control scheme for the single-ended quasi-resonant ZVS inverter using a low voltage and high current power MOSFET switching device is proposed to provide a linear power regulation characteristic in the wide range 0-100％ of the full power as compared with the conventional control based Royer type parallel resonant inverter type power supplies.

본 논문은 가전용 교류 전동기 구동을 위한 인버터 회로에 포함된 지능형 스위칭 모듈인 IPM 모듈에 대한 특성 및 신뢰성 계측 회로 설계 방법에 대한 연구이다.

Recently, with increasing efficiency of DSC (photo-electrochemical using a nano-particle), The Performance of DSC solar generation system also needs improvement. The approach consists of a Fly-back DC-DC (transfer ratio 1:10) converter to boost the DSC cell voltage to 300VDC. The four switch (MOSFET) inverter is employed to produce 220V, 60Hz AC outputs. High performance, easy manufacturability, lower component count., safety and cost are addressed. Protection and diagnostic features form an important part of the design. Another highlight of the proposed design is the control strategy, which allows the inverter to adapt to the: requirements of the load as well as the power source. A unique aspect of the design is the use of the DSP TMS320LF2406 to control the inverter by current and voltage feed-back. Efficient and smooth control of the: power drawn from the DSC Cell is achieved by controlling the front end DC-DC converter in current mode.

Transformerless solar inverters have a higher efficiency than those with an isolation link. However, they suffer from a leakage current issue. This paper proposes a family of single phase six-switch transformerless inverter topologies with an ac bypass circuit to solve the leakage current problem. These circuits embed two unidirectional freewheeling current units into the midpoint of a full bridge inverter, to obtain a freewheeling current path, which separates the solar panel from the grid in the freewheeling state. The freewheeling current path contains significantly fewer devices and poor performance body diodes are not involved, leading to a higher efficiency. Meanwhile, it is not necessary to add a voltage balancing control method when compared with the half bridge inverter. Simulation and experiments are provided to validate the proposed topologies.

It is very important to maintain the balanced output voltage waveforms under the unbalanced DC-link voltages in the four-switch three-phase inverter(FSTPI). In this paper, the improvement of output voltage waveforms is proposed with the aid of DC-link voltage ripple estimation. The proposed method can be implemented without the additional voltage sensor. The proposed method applied to the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is simulated and experimented in order to verify its feasibility.

This study describes the influence of the mutual inductance between the adjacent phase windings of variable reluctance motor[VRM] and presents a new type of inverter for reduction of such influence. In this inverter topology, though an additional power switch is used as compared with the conventional C-dump inverter circuit, unwanted negative torque produced by the mutual inductance is remarkably reduced. Hence, the circuits results in increase of the average torque and contributes to the improvement of overall drive efficiency. Theoretical prediction is verified by experimental results obtained with the integration of presented inverter and prototype 6/4 VRM.
