In this paper, filtering techniques to reduce the adverse effects of motor leads on high-frequency PWM inverter fed AC motor drives will be examined. The filter was designed to keep the motor terminal from the cable surge impedance to reduce overvoltage reflections, ringing, and the dv/dt, di/dt. Therefore, filtering techniques are investigated to reduce the motor terminal overvoltage, ringing, and EMI noise in inverter fed ac motor drive systems. The output filter is used to limit the rate of the inverter output voltage and reduce EMI(common mode noise) to the motor. The performance of the output filter is evaluated through simulations (PSIM) and experiment on PWM inverter-fed ac motor drive(3phase, 3hp(2.2kw), input voltage 220/380V, induction motor). An experimental PWM drive system reduction of conducted EMI was implemented on an available TMS320C31 microprocessor control board. Finally, experimental results showed that the inverter output filter reduces more CM noise than the LPF(low pass filter) and reduce overvoltage and ringing at the motor terminal.

This paper presents a new circuit topology of high-frequency soft switching commutation boost type PWM chopper-fed DC-DC power converter with a loadside auxiliary passive resonant snubber. In the proposed boost type chopper-fed DC-DC power converter circuit operating under a principle of ZCS turn-on and ZVS turn-off commutation, the capacitor and inductor in the auxiliary passive resonant circuit works as the lossless resonant snubber. In addition to this, the voltage and current peak stresses of the power semiconductor devices as well as their di/dt or dv/dt dynamic stress can be effectively reduced by the single passive resonant snubber treated here. Moreover, it is proved that chopper-fed DC-DC power converter circuit topology with an auxiliary passive resonant snubber could solve some problems on the conventional boost type hard switching PWM chopper-fed DC-DC power converter. The simulation results of this converter are illustrated and discussed as compared with the experimental ones. The feasible effectiveness of this soft witching DC-DC power converter with a single passive resonant snubber is verified by the 5kW, 20kHz experimental breadboard set up to be built and tested for new energy utilization such as solar photovoltaic generators and fuel sell generators.

The Design criteria of the auxiliary resonant snubber inverter (ARSI) using a load-side circuit are discussed in relation to electric propulsion drives. In this regard, this paper attempts to develop a set of design criteria for the ARSI. First, the switching characteristics of IGBTs under soft-switching mainly in terms of dv/dt/, di/dt and switching losses are discussed and utilized for optimizing the selection of the resonant components in the system. After that, the proper control strategies of ARSIs are analyzed and simulated based on voltage space vector modulations. Later, the design, control and implementation of the auxiliary resonant circuit suitable for industrial products are analyzed and presented. And finally, other factors including power stage layout, packaging and the choice of current sensors are included. The detailed simulation and experimental results will be included based on a laboratory prototype. The proposed design criteria of the ARSI would help the implementation of an electric propulsion drive system.

본 논문은 소프트 스위칭 기법을 적용한 싱크로너스 양방향 DC-DC 컨버터를 제안한다. 제안된 컨버터는 싱크로너스 벅 컨버터를 병렬구성을 하여 인터리브드 기법을 통해 도통 손실을 줄이고, 하나의 공진인덕터를 사용한 ZVT-Cell을 적용함으로써 스위칭 손실을 최소화 하였다. 전 부하 범위에서 CCM(Continuous Conduction Mode) 으로 동작하고 ZVS가 성립되도록 하였으며, 전류주입 기법을 통해 넓은 출력전압 범위에서도 ZVS 조건을 만족하였다. 또한, 기존 싱크로너스 벅 컨버터의 데드타임(dead time)동안 발생하는 역병렬 다이오드의 도통손실 및 dv/dt, di/dt 발생을 저감하는 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 제안된 컨버터의 유효성은 실험을 통해서 검증하였다.

This paper proposes fluorescent electronic ballast with high power factor and low line input current harmonics. The system performance can be improved by a charged pump circuit. Details of design and circuit operation are described. The proposed electronic ballast is modified from single-stage half bridge class D electronic ballast by adding capacitor parallel with each power switch and setting the circuit parameter to operate under class DE inverter condition. By using this proposed method the DC bus voltage can be reduced around by 50% compare with conventional class D inverter circuit. Because the power switches are operated at zero voltage switching condition and low dv/dt of class DE switching. The experimental results show that the proper frequency of the prototype is around 50 kHz with input power factor of 0.982, $THD_i$ 10.2% at full load and efficiency of more than 90%.

This paper presents a multilevel inverter configuration which is designed by insertion of a bidirectional switch between capacitive voltage sources and a conventional H-bridge module. The modified inverter can produce a better sinusoidal waveform by increasing the number of output voltage levels. By serial connection of two modified H-bridge modules, it is possible to produce 9 output voltage levels including zero. There are 24 basic switching patterns with the 9 output voltage levels. Among the patterns, we select the 2 most efficient switching patterns to get a lower switching loss and minimum dv/dt stress. We then analyze characteristics of Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of the output voltage with variation of input voltage by computer-aided simulations and experiments.

함정의 추진체계로 전기추진체계가 선정될 경우 대용량의 전동기 및 전력변환장치가 설치된다. 전동기를 구동하여 추진력을 얻기 위해서는 발전기에서 공급하는 AC 전력을 AC에서 DC 다시 DC에서 AC로 변환하는 과정을 거치게 된다. 이 과정에서 전력용 반도체의 On/Off 동작에 의해 높은 전압상승률 (dv/dt)이 발생하며 이로 인해 함정의 선체를 통해 흐르는 누설전류가 발생하여 인접 장비에 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 논문에서는 전기추진 함정의 전자기 간섭(EMI) 현상 발생 원인에 대해 분석하고 이를 저감시키기 위한 방법으로 Drain wire를 적용하고 그 효과에 대해 분석한다.

Saturable reactor-resistor pair is proposed as a part of snubber and applied to a hard commutation chopper. SCR turn off process is modeled to simulate the hard commutation chopper. State equations are derived for each mode of the chopper and they are solved by Runge-Kutta 4th order method. It is shown that the reverse voltage spike and reverse dv/dt can be minimized by applying saturable reactor-resistor pair to the chopper which controls peak reverse recovery current and damping factor. Saturable reactor-resistor pair can be used to reduced SCR power loss and value of snubber capacitor and can be applied to high power thyristor devices.

IGBT는 턴-오프 동안 높은 dv/dt를 재인가하면 기생적 NPN 트랜지스터를 강제로 도전시킬 수 있는 변위전류를 유기하는데 이것은 제어의 손실과 잠재적인 디바이스의 손상을 가져오므로 적절한 스너버회로의 설계가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 IGBT의 SPICE 모델을 이용하여 스위칭 특성을 해석하고, 적절한 스너버 회로의 설계 방식을 제시하였다.

The advantage of the squirrel cage induction motor is the brush less rotor. This advantage for operation and maintenance turns out to be a disadvantage for the detection of the cage rotor bar and endring defects, which means that the detection of cage faults is due to the measurement and analysis of only the stator input signals. The monitoring task in an inverter drive is complicated mainly because the voltage and current waveforms are nonsinusoidal and the high dv/dt values from fast switching inverterd distort the measurements. In this paper, we are going to discuss the detection method of broken rotor bar of the inverter fed squirrel cage induction motor by the motor current signature analysis(MCSA) and the opening terminal voltage signal analysis.
