The V/F slip frequency constant control methods are used for driving induction motor with load commutated current source inverter, that is. constant V/F and slip frequency driving is used to load commutate the inverter below the critical frequency, while constant voltage and variable frequency and slip frequency driving are used in above the critical region. In order to applicate the load commutated current source inverter to the general use, speed control range of induction noter is selected to two times at rated frequency. Therefore, economical application is possible because of the maximum reduction of the condenser of the inverter output port. The use of the proposed force commutated circuit improves the false operation of force commutated circuit and inverter commutation failure which are produced by the influence of the lower-order harmonics of the conventional load commutated current source inverter at starting.

When induction motor is driven with a load commutated inverter, the output part of the inverter must be capacitive. But, in order to be a good load commutation at the low speed range, very large capacitor or force commutated circuit must be used regarding the capacity of motor. This paper proposed the force commutated circuit for driving the motor in case of the installation of capacitor which can be capable of load commutation at the rating speed. The force commutated circuit is operated by the LC resonant circuit, auxiliary source and SCR, and also composed of the commutation circuit which control the interval of the inverse voltage across the inverter.

This paper describes the variable speed drive of an induction motor by the line commutated inverter, which is operated in the forced commutation mode from start-up to operating point of load commutation. A novel forced-commutation circuit is proposed in this paper. The selection range of leading condenser to decide load commutation starting point is simulated by the sampling data of a general purpose IM and a high speed IM. The experiment to drive IM by a line commutated inverter with the proposed forced commutated circuits is performed. There was no problem in driving IM from standstill to starting point of load commutation by a line commutated inverter with forced commutation.

A steady state analysis of a load commutated current source inverter which is widely used in high voltage - high power induction motor drive systems at present is presented and its related results are discussed. This analysis proposes a method by which we can determine the output capacitor playing a dominant role on the performance of the system. It is shown that the capacitance of output capacitors is mainly dependent on the range of frequencies that the inverter is operated in the load commutated state.

It is impossible to drive induction motor through line-commutated inverter without the forced-commutation. Therefore, the forced-commutated circuit is proposed in this paper. The line-commutated inverter is operated by load commutation in abovea half of the rated frequency. In this paper, the experimental result is presented by the IM driving.

This paper proposes a new start-up method for a load commutated inverter (LCI) in a large synchronous gas-turbine generator. The initial rotor position for start-up torque is detected by the proposed initial angle detector, which consists of an integrator and a phase-locked loop. The initial rotor position is accurately detected within 150ms, and the angle difference between the real position and the detected position is less than 1%. The LCI system operates in two modes (forced commutation mode and natural commutation mode) according to operating speed range. The proposed controllers include a forced commutation controller for the low-speed range, a PI speed controller and a PI current controller, where the forced commutation controller is connected to the current controller in parallel. The current controller is modeled by Matlab/Simulink, where a six-pulse delay of the thyristor and a processing delay are considered by using a zero-order hold. The performance of the proposed start-up method is evaluated in Matlab/Psim at standstill and at low speed. To verify the feasibility of the method, a 5kVA LCI system prototype is implemented, and the proposed initial angle detector and the system performance are confirmed by experimental results from standstill to 900rpm.

Gas turbine systems are applied extensively in energy supplies to cover peak load requirements. The gas turboset must be accelerated by starting device up to 60%~80% of rated speed to ignite the gas turbine. Recently, the most favorable and economical starting device is the LCI(Load Commutated Inverter). The LCI runs up the gas turboset by feeding the generator as a synchronous motor. In this paper, we discuss in detail the driving principles and features of 183MW gas turbine system. During field application of LCI system, many tests have been conducted and the results were described in this paper. The test results will be considered as the important resources for development in future.

The conventional autosequentially commutated current-fed inverter (ASCI) is widely employed with the induction motor drives for speed control. Howener, this inverter has a limit of high power and high frequency indution motor drives. One of the limitations is to be found in the commutation capacitors in the main circuit of this inverter. A new current-fed gate turn-off thyristor (GTO) inverter is developed. This inverter is composed of the main GTO bridge configuration and the improved energy rebound circuit (ERC)without the commutation capacitor. This inverter works stable at high frequency from light load to heavy one. The improved ERC is used not only to rebound the load reactive power to the dc link, but also to return the power in the load to the ac source. The new GTO inverter circuit and the characteristics of the inverter induction motor drives are explained and analyzed.

The load commutated current source inverter(LCCSI) with GTO-DC source forced commutation is described in this Paper. GTO-DC source forced commutation assures the stability of commutation below critical frequency determined by output capcaitor and it also gives the oppotunity of PWM operation for reducing resonant harmonic components. he simulation results clearly show hat the proposed commutation circuit works well in the resonance phenomenon between output capacitor and machine leakage inductance.

At LCCSI system, output capacitor of inverter and inductor of load motor raise mutuality operation. This parallel resonant increase equivalent impedance of inverter load and give wrong effect at LCCSI system. This paper carried out resonant analysis of LCCSI system. The result of analysis, particular resonant point of two was discovered that a resonant of S=0 vicinity and $\beta$ resonant of S=1 vicinity. In addition to, the case of harmonics resonant not come from $\alpha$ resonant but come from $\beta$ resonant. A moment of working of LCCSI system, resonant line must not suddenly variation. Accordingly, resonant line is a necessity for doing $f{\alpha}$ vicinity by properly capacitor value selection.
