This paper describes the design and implementation of a new diode clamped multilevel inverter for variable frequency drive. The diode clamp multilevel inverter has been widely used for low power, high voltage applications due to its superior performance. However, it has some limitations such as increased number of switching devices and complex PWM control. In this paper, a new topology is proposed. New topology requires only (N-1) switching devices and (N-3) clamping diodes compared to existing topology. A modified APO-PWM control method is used to generate gate pulses for inverter. The proposed inverter topology is coupled with single phase induction motor and its performance is tested by MATLAB simulation. Finally, a prototype model has built and its performance is tested with single phase variable frequency drive.

This paper presents a precision voltage control technique of a single phase PWM inverter for a constant voltage and constant frequency(CVCF) applications. The proposed control employes a PLL compensating loop which minimize the steady state error and phase delay. The computer simulation and experiment are carried out for the actual single phase PWM inverter and the results well demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control.

본 논문에서는 새로운 변조방식을 사용한 단상 인버터 시스템을 제안한다. 제안한 시스템은 buck-boost 변환기와 인버터로 구성되며 새로운 변조방식인 PWAM(Pulse Width/Amplitude Modulation)방식을 사용하여 제어한다. PWAM방식은 PWM(Pulse Width Modulation)방식과 PAM(Pulse Amplitude Modulation) 방식이 혼합된 새로운 변조방식이며 인버터의 입력단에 위치한 buck-boost 변환기는 일정한 직류전압을 입력으로 받아 가변 직류전압으로 변환한다. 인버터는 buck-boost 변환기에서 출력된 가변 직류전압을 입력으로 하며, PWM 구간에서는 PWM 스위칭을 하고 PAM 구간에서는 인버터가 스위칭을 하지 않음으로써 정현 교류전압으로 변환한다. 제안한 PWAM방식을 사용한 단상 인버터 시스템은 PAM 구간에서 스위칭 동작을 하지 않으므로 기존의 방식에 비해 스위칭 횟수가 감소하여 스위칭 손실을 줄일 수 있다.

고전압 태양광 패널에서 단상 계통으로의 직류-교류 전력 변환을 위해 벅부스트 컨버터에 풀브리지 인버터를 종속적으로 연결하는 두 단계의 무변압기 인버터가 주로 사용된다. 태양광 패널의 큰 기생 커패시턴스에 기인하는 과도한 누설 전류를 피하기 위해 풀브리지 인버터는 단극성 PWM에 비해 훨씬 더 많은 전력 손실을 초래하는 양극성 PWM으로만 스위칭할 수 있다. 그런 낮은 효율을 개선하기 위해 본 논문은 벅부스트 컨버터에 회로 절연을 위한 IGBT와 다이오드를 하나씩 추가한 새로운 토폴로지를 제안한다. 제안된 회로 절연 방식은 누설 전류를 증가시키지 않으면서 풀브리지 인버터에서 단극성 PWM을 가능케 함으로써 전체 효율을 개선한다. 제안된 방법의 타당성은 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션과 전력 손실 계산을 통해 검증한다.

A pulse-width modulation (PWM) method for common mode noise reduction in a PWM inverter connected to a single-phase grid is proposed in this study. The extensively used conventional switching method may experience common mode voltage problems, which generate current leakage and electromagnetic induction problems. In the proposed switching method, the neutral point of the output voltage is always fixed at both ends of the input voltage to reduce common mode noise. The validity of the proposed method is proven through simulation and experimental results.

This paper presents a novel prototype of dual mode control based phase shift ZVS PWM high frequency load resonant inverter with lossless snubber capacitors in addition to a single active auxiliary resonant snubber for electromagnetic induction heating(IH) foam metal based consumer fluid dual packs(DPA) heater. The operating principle in steady state and unique features of this voltage source soft switching high frequency inverter circuit topology are described in this paper. The lossless snubber and auxiliary active resonant snubber assisted constant frequency phase shift ZVS PWM high frequency load resonant inverter employing IGBT power modules actually is capable of achieving zero voltage soft commutation over a widely specified power regulation range from full power to low power. The steady state operating performances of this dual mode phase shift PWM series load resonant high frequency inverter are evaluated and discussed on the basis of simulation and experimental results for induction heated foam metal heater which is designed for compact and high efficient moving fluid heating appliance in the consumer pipeline systems.

In this paper, a novel offset-based single-state pulse width modulation (PWM) method for achieving zero common-mode voltage (CMV) and reducing switching losses in multilevel inverters is presented. The specific active switching state of the zero common-mode (ZCM) voltage that approximates the reference voltage can be deduced from the switching state sequence of the reduced CMV phase disposition PWM (CMV PD PWM) method. From the reference leg voltages for the zero common-mode voltage, an N-to-2-level transformation defines a virtual two-level inverter and the corresponding nominal leg voltage references. The commutation process of the reduced CMV PD PWM method in a multilevel inverter and its outputs can be simply followed in a nominal switching time diagram for the virtual inverter. The characteristics of the reduced CMV PD PWM and the single-state PWM for zero common-mode voltage are analyzed in detail in this paper. The theoretical analysis of the proposed PWM method is verified by experimental results.

This paper proposes two SRM driving systems using a variable dc-link voltage controlled by a single-phase inverter. Two SRM converter topologies of a half bridge type and a full bridge type are proposed according to the power circuits of an inverter. The phase current can be controlled by means of a PWM controller at the inverter, and the turn-on/off angle at the phase switches can be controlled by a position sensor at the converter in the drive system. The inverter acts as a peak-current limiter if the transient current exceeds its maximum value. SRMs using the proposed topologies maintain high efficiency due to energy regeneration after the turn-off of power switches. The operational modes of the proposed topologies are verified by simulation and experimental results.
