Abstract

This paper presents a performance analysis of typical Auxiliary Resonant Commutation Snubber-assisted three phase voltage source soft switching inverter which can operate under a condition of Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) using a digital control scheme which is suitable for high power applications compared with resonant DC link snubber assisted soft switching inverter. The system performances of this inverter are illustrated and evaluated on the basis of experimental results.
