Abstract

In this paper, a new Harmonic Torque Factor(HTF) that represents torque ripple of induction motor is proposed. Trapezoidal PWM is analyzed to torque ripple by HTF and than we obtain optimum triangular factor at some carrier ratio. Six-step, sinusoidal PWM and Trapezoidal PWM are compared and evaluated for choosing a good control strategy of PWM inverter. It turns out that six-step inverter is better than sinusoidal PWM and Trapezoidal PWM when their carrier ratio is 9, and Trapezoidal PWM is superior to sinusoidal PWM. At induction motor is driven by PWM inverter, torque ripples are investigated by computer simulation using d-q two axis model. It is proved that a new Harmonic Torque Factor ix valid.
