In this paper, an advanced Pulse Width Modulation Inverter strategy for driving a variable-speed induction motor is introduced. A switching pattern making use of the near-proportionality of voltage and frequency in AC machines operating with constant flux was computed. At low magnitudes and ow frequencies of the fundamental, many more harmonics are eliminated than at high magnitudes and frequencies. In order to keep the inverter switching frequency constant over the output frequency range, the chopping frequency is diminished as the frequency of the fundamental increases. Using these modulation strategy, the harmonics components of PWM inverter are efficiently eliminated.

Direct torque control (DTC) scheme provides a very quick torque response without the complex field-orientation block and inner current regulation loop. DTC is known as an appropriate scheme for high power induction motor drives because it can be used at lower switching frequency There are a major drawbacks with the application of DTC schemes it is large current harmonics due to flux drooping in a low speed range. In order to solve the problem, the fuzzy variable switching sector scheme are adopted in this paper. A meaningful contribution of this paper is to propose a simple realization scheme of the fuzzy variable switching sector technique. Experimental results show the effectiveness of this proposition.

According to this method, the technique of efficiently eliminating harmonics component is achived. A switching pattern was computed making use of the near-proportionality of voltage and frequency in AC machines operating with constant flux. At low magnitudes and low frequencies of the foundamental, many more harmonics are eliminated than at high magnitudes and frequencies. In order to keep the inverter switching frequency constant over the output frequency range, chopping times diminishes as the frequency of the fundamental increases.

In this paper PLC Power Circuit with Hot-Swap Function is proposed for stable power supplies. The power modules of the proposed devices are implemented by CRM flyback converter using new synchronous rectifier circuit for high efficiency. By a variable switching frequency controller, this converter is operated with a reduced turn-on switching loss. Also, the load current in these power modules are shared by auto master / slave method using Outer loop. The proposed devices are analyzed in detail and optimized for high performance. Experimental results for a 100W power module at the variable switching frequency of 30$^{\sim}$70kHz were obtained to show the performance of the proposed device.

Three-phase current is reconstructed from the dc-link current in an AC machine drive with a single current sensor. Switching pattern modification methods, in which the magnitude of the effective voltage vector is secured over its minimum, are investigated to accurately reconstruct the three-phase current. However, the existing methods that modify the switching pattern cause voltage and current distortions that degrade sensorless performance. This paper proposes a variable-magnitude voltage signal injection method based on a high frequency voltage signal injection. The proposed method generates a voltage reference vector that ensures the minimum magnitude of the effective voltage vector by varying the magnitude of the injection signal. This method can realize high quality current reconstruction without switching pattern modification. The proposed method is verified by experiments in a 600W Interior permanent magnet synchronous machine (IPMSM) drive system.

Usually, in many applications, high frequency resonant inverters are used, and the PAM(Pulse Amplitude Modulation), PFM(Pulse Frequency Modulation) or PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) techniques are used to control the output power of resonant inverters.

The detail algorithm of the proposed PWM switching scheme and its charicteristics are discussed. And the validity of the proposed method is confirmed with the experimental results.

In many applications of inverter system, it is desirable to obtain an AC output voltage with variable frequency and amplitude. For the variable-speed AC motor drive, the system is one major area of application for the variable-frequency inverter. V ariable~voltage variable-frequency sinusoidal output in three-phase inverter is possible by employing the techniques developed. In this paper, the technique of particular harmonics elimination(PHE) in three-phase PWM inverter-output waveforms is introduced. The required switching patterns are determind on personal computer. Results are stored in look-up table in EPROM and used to control the switching of the inverter devices. The experimental results indicate that the loss in an induction motor is minimized to a degree by using this algorithm. The proposed PWM pattern is effective not only to the induction motor but also to the other electromagnetic machine such as Voltage Regulator, UPS.

The variable-frequency type water supply equipment, which adopts the variable-voltage and variable-frequency converter(VVVF converter) to govern automatically the rotating speed of a pump, can save 15-20% of power, as compared with a throttle-controlled pump device or an airpressurized water supply equipment, and is finding a wide application. However, it still has some disadvantages : greater pressure fluctuations during switching over the pump and prolonged low-effeciency running of the pump in the case of small consumption of water. Therefore, it is difficult to apply the equipment to the fire water supply system where the water should not be put into use unless a fire takes place, and the water pressure in pipelines should permanently remain constant. This paper introduces the automatic regulation principle of the variable-frequency type air-pressurized water supply equipment (hereafter referred to as simply BFQS equipment) for dual purposes of daily life and fire control, which combined both technologies of speed governing by a converter and air-pressurized water supplying, then discusses some problems related to automatic control, and finally gives the experimental results of an embodiment-BPQS-100-50 water supply equipment.

A half bridge type double resonant high frequency resonant inverter using PFM is described. This proposed inverter can reduce distribution of the switching current because of using the current of the serial resonant circuit to the input current of the parallel one. In the case of variable capacitance of the DC voltage source separated capacitor the analysis of inverter circuit has generally described by using normalized parameter and operating characteristics has been evaluated in terms of switching frequency and parameters. Based on the characteristics value a method of the circuit design is proposed. The theoretical results are in good agreement with the experimental ones. In the future this proposed circuit is considerated to be useful for induction heating and discharge lamp.

A new resonant switching Watkins-Johnson converter was proposed, which minimizes the switching loss and is well suited for high-frequency operation. The steady-state analyses revealed that the voltage gain of the proposed converter is solely determined by the switching frequency. Consequently, to regulate the output voltage of the converter for variable load current the switching frequency should be varied accordingly. Based on the results of analyses, an optimum design procedure for the resonant component values is proposed, which minimized the voltage stress of power switch while maintaining the desired property of zero-voltage switching. Finally, accuracy of analyses and validity of an optimum design procedure are verified on an experimental resonant switching Watkins-Johnson converter prototype.
