Current Source Inverter Fed Induction Motor Drive: Current Source Inverter Fed Induction Motor Drive - In a voltage source inverter fed induction motor the applied voltage to the stator is proportional to the frequency, with…
PWM Inverter Fed Induction Motor Drive: Voltage control in the square wave inverter has been external to the inverter, by means of a phase controlled rectifier on the line side. This posed some practical application…
Square Wave Voltage Source Inverter Fed Induction Motor Drive: Square Wave Voltage Source Inverter Fed Induction Motor Drive is a kind of dc link converter, which is a two stage conversion device. A three phase…
Cycloconverter Feeding Three Phase Induction Motor Drive: Variable frequency supply to an induction motor may be obtained by using a cycloconverter. As has already been discussed, a cycloconverter is a single stage frequency conversion device…
Speed Control of Variable Frequency Induction Motor: Speed Control of Variable Frequency Induction Motor of a squirrel cage induction motor can be controlled very effectively by varying the stator frequency. Further, the operation of the…
Static Scherbius Drive: The main limitation of the Kraemer drive discussed is the operation at sub-synchronous range due to diode rectifier. Super synchronous speeds can be achieved if the power is fed to the rotor…
Braking and 4 Quadrants Operation: Subsynchronous converter cascades have been used, till now, in applications requiring one quadrant operation. These can be employed for drives where at least one electrical braking is required. A 4…
Speed Control Using Slip Energy Recovery Schemes: The foregoing discussion makes it very clear that the methods of voltage control and rotor resistance control have poor efficiency, particularly at low speeds, and find limited application.…
Chopper Resistance in the Rotor Circuit: Speed control by means of slip variation can be achieved by employing a variable resistance Chopper Resistance in the Rotor Circuit. From the equations it is clear that the…
Derating Factor of an Electric Motor Operating on AC Voltage Controller: Typical derating factor of an induction motor fed from a voltage controller are shown in Fig. 4.5(d) when the motor drives a fan or…
