The high rate of voltage rise (dv/dt) in motor terminals caused by high-frequency switching and impedance mismatches between inverter and motor are known as the primary causes of irregular voltage distributions and insulation breakdowns on stator windings in IGBT PWM inverter-driven induction motors. In this paper, voltage distributions in the stator windings of an induction motor driven by an IGBT PWM inverter are studied. To analyze the irregular voltages of stator windings, high frequency parameters are derived from the finite element (FE) analysis of stator slots. An equivalent circuit composed of distributed capacitances, inductance, and resistance is derived from these parameters. This equivalent circuit is then used for simulation in order to predict the voltage distributions among the turns and coils. The effects of various rising times in motor terminal voltages and cable lengths on the stator voltage distribution are also presented. For a comparison with simulations, an induction motor with taps in the stator turns was made and driven by a variable-rising time switching surge generator. The test results are shown.

The western route of KEPCO's 765 kV transmission line has been tentatively operating as 345 kV voltage before commercial operation. KEPCO decided to operate the 765 kV line for commercial operation after completing the test operation of 765 kV substation in 2002. In the process of energizing the line as 765 kV voltage, double circuit transmission line will be operated with two voltage grades of 765 kV and 345 kV. As the earthing switches are installed on both ends of the line, electrostatic induction voltage and electromagnetic induction current were calculated prior to the line energizing in order to confirm the ratings. The induced voltage and current are important for the maintenance of the parallel circuit. This paper presents the simulation results of electrical phenomena such as electrostatic induction voltage and electromagnetic induction current from the parallel line. The transmission line was modeled by EMTP (Electro-Magnetic Transient Program). The simulation results were compared with the measured results at the field.

This paper presents an improved switching selection method for the direct torque control (DTC) of five-phase induction motors (IMs). The proposed method is conducted using optimal switching selection. A five-phase inverter has 32 voltage vectors which are divided into 30 nonzero voltage vectors and two zero voltage vectors. The magnitudes of the voltage vectors consist of large, medium, and small voltage vectors. In addition, these vectors are related to the torque response and torque ripple. When a large voltage vector is selected in a drive system, the torque response time decreases with an increased torque ripple. On the other hand, when a small voltage vector is selected, the torque response time and torque ripple increase. As a result, this paper proposes an optimal voltage vector selection method for improved DTC of a five-phase induction machine depending on the situation. Simulation and experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.

This paper represents the generating principles of the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind power system and developes a simulation model of DFIG by using PSCAD/EMTDC. In addition, this paper analyzes the steady state operation and the transient operation during the voltage sags in the power common coupling. The voltage sags are occurred by three phase line-to-ground faults and full-voltage startup of an induction motor in the simulation.

AC induction motor equipped in electric train is driven by VVVF inverter which produces switching pulse like impuse. Impulse voltage is more dangerous than continuous alternative voltage for the insulating performance of AC induction motor. This paper has investigated PD characteristics caused by impuse voltage for stator coils inserted in AC induction motor.

본 논문에서는 H-bridge cascaded 7-level 인버터로 구동되는 고압 유도전동기에서 발생하는 과도과전압 저감을 위한 LCR 필터의 효과를 분석하였다. 인버터에서 발생하는 스위칭 서지 전압은 유도전동기 입력단자에서 과도과전압을 발생시킨다. 이 과도과전압은 고압 유도 전동기의 고정자 권선에 심각한 전압스트레스를 주어 전동기 절연사고를 발생시키는 주요원인이다. 과도과전압의 영향은 저압유도 전동기 보다 고압 유도전동기에서 더욱더 심각하게 발생한다. 이러한 과도과전압을 저감하기 위한 방안으로 LCR 필터를 선택하였으며, 필터를 인버터 출력단자에 연결하여 과도과전압 스트레스와 링잉을 저감한 것을 전동기 단자에서 전압파형과 고조파 스펙트럼을 통하여 증명하였다. 시뮬레이션은 전자계과도해석 프로그램인 EMTP(Electromagnetic Transients Program)을 사용하였다.

In general, A synchronous generator is higher than the voltage stability of the induction generator. However, induction generator has many advantages rather than a synchronous generator in terms of price and maintenance. So, coverage rate of the induction generator is gradually increasing in small hydroelectric power station rather than 1000kW recently. In order to increase the penetration of induction generator, pre-analysis of the operation of the generator is needed. In this study, we analyzed for the problems that occur when synchronous generator and induction generator of 1500kW is connected to the distribution system.

In this paper, a three-phase induction machine-based wind power generation scheme is proposed. This scheme uses a low-cost diode bridge rectifier circuit connected to an induction machine via an ac load voltage regulator (AC-LVR) to regulate dc power transfer. The AC-LVR is used to regulate the DC load voltage of the diode bridge rectifier circuit which is connected to the three-phase self-excited induction generator (SEIG). The excitation of the three-phase SEIG is supplied by the static VAR compensator (SVC). This simple method for obtaining a full variable-speed wind turbine system by applying a back-to-back power converter to a wound rotor induction generator is useful for wind power generation at widely varying speeds. The dynamic performance responses and the experimental results of connecting a 5kW 220V three-phase SEIG directly to a diode bridge rectifier are presented for various loads. Moreover, the steady-state simulated and experimental results of the PI closed-loop feedback voltage regulation scheme prove the practical effectiveness of these simple methods for use with a wind turbine system.

There are two types of inverters that are generally used in induction heating systems: voltage type inverters and high-frequency half-bridge inverters. This paper proposes a new resonant inverter for induction heating systems using the current type full-bridge method. The proposed method can remove capacitors at the input end, and enables unity power factor operation by preventing phase differences of voltage and current. Furthermore, Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) which is in tune with current type inverter can be adopted and continuous power adjustment is possible through duty ratio changes and frequency modulation in switching operation. Simulations and experiments showed that the proposed current type full-bridge resonant inverter could be used for unity power factor control and ZVS operation in induction heating systems.

In this paper, we investigate a filtering technique to reduce the adverse effect of long motor leads on H-bridge cascaded 7-level inverter fed ac motor drive. The switching surge voltage becomes the major cause to occur the insulation failure by serious voltage stress in the stator winding of high voltage induction motor. However, the effect of switching surge appears un seriousin high voltage induction motor than low voltage induction motor. Consequently, we demonstrated that the filter connected to the motor terminals greatly reduces the transient voltage stress and ringing, moreover we show lowers the dv/dt of the inverter switching pulse. The results of simulation show the suppression of dv/dt and the reduced peak voltage at the motor end of a long cable.
