The mathematical model of a three-phase voltage source pulse-width modulation (PWM) DC/AC inverter is non-linear, and in view of the traditional linear control strategy it can not meet the requirements of designing a high-performance inverter. What's more, when the loads are not pure resistive loads, the inverter further requires that the controller possess high-performance. This paper proposes a nonlinear control strategy for the inverter called Passivity-based Control. We can alter the inverter model in three-phase abc coordinate to two-phase synchronous rotating dq coordinate for establishing the port-control Hamiltonian (PCH) model for this system. We can control the distribution of energy in the system to achieve the control aim. Simulation results show that the passivity-based control method can make this system possess a level of high-performance that is both robust and dynamic.

In order to improve the quality of the billet continuous casting, a two-phase orthogonal power supply (TPOPS) for electromagnetic stirrer is researched, which is composed of three-phase PWM rectifier and three-leg inverter. According to the power analysis of system, the ripple of dc-link voltage is analyzed and its analytical expression is derived. In order to improve the performance of electromagnetic stirring, an integrated control method with feedforward control is proposed for PWM rectifier to suppress the fluctuations of dc-link voltage and provide a stable dc source for inverter. According to the simplified equivalent model, a composite current control method is proposed for inverter. This proposed method can combine the merits of feedforward control with feedback control to effectively improve the dynamic output performance of TPOPS. Finally, a 300kVA prototype of TPOPS is developed, and the results have verified the analysis and control method.

This paper reports an investigation of pulse width modulation (PWM) techniques for two-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motors fed by a two-phase eight-switch inverter in a fan application. The three-phase BLDC motor is widely applied in industry; however, a lower-cost two-phase BLDC motor and drive circuit has been greatly in demand in recent years. In this paper, we introduce a mathematical model of the two-phase BLDC motor with sinusoidal back electromotive forces (EMFs) based on traditional three-phase BLDC motors. To simplify the drive algorithm and speed up its application, we analyze the principle of block commutation for a two-phase BLDC motor drive in the 180-electrical-degree conduction mode, and we further propose five PWM schemes to improve the commutation performance of the two-phase BLDC drive. The effectiveness of the proposed PWM methods is verified through experiments.

The paper proposes a method to eliminate harmonics of PWM inverter fed induction motor system using Walsh series. In other words, this paper presents technique of the selective harmonics elimination(SHE) by W-FT series in three phase PWM inverter output waveform. A microprocessor(8086 CPU) - controlled three phase induction motor system in order to verify this algorithm is present. It is designed for a three output voltage in the 1$\sim$60 Hz inverter with the 5th and 7th harmonics, 5th, 7th, 11th, and 13th, harmonics eliminated, and with the fundamental wave amplitude proportional to the output frequency. In the PWM inverter, dead time circuit is inserted in the switching si gnats to prevent the de link shortage. This paper is deals with quantative prediction of dead-time effect and its compensation in PWM inverters. The performance of the compensation circuits is confirmed by the experiment.

This paper proposes the advanced PWM method that can reduce common-mode voltage in three-phase PWM converter-inverter system. By the proper distribution of the zero-voltage vector of inverter, it is possible to cancel out a common-mode voltage pulse in a sampling period. Since the proposed PWM method maintains the effective-voltage vector, it does not affect the control performance of converter-inverter system. Without any extra hardware, overall common-mode voltage can be decreased by one-third compared with conventional PWM scheme.

In this paper, the test bed using three-phase PWM converter connected with single phase inverter in series is set up to configure an active AC electric load. Since the two topologies, three-phase PWM converter and single-phase inverter, can be operated bidirectionally, the system not only re-generates surplus power to grid but also prevents power dissipation. However, the construction of system has a drawback. That is, ripple components two times of inverter operation frequency occur at DC-Link due to cascade connection, it can be cause of three phase unbalance Since the operational characteristic of the active AC electric load, the power frequency entered into the electric load can be varied, and the ripple of DC-Link is changed as well. In this paper, the three-phase PWM converter using a variable notch filter is proposed, and the reduction of three-phase current unbalance is presented. the validity of the proposed PWM converter using a variable notch filter is verified by the simulation and experimental results.

In this paper, a novel proposal for a utility-interactive three-phase soft commutation sinewave PWM power conditioner with an auxiliary active resonant DC-link snubber is developed for fuel cell and solar power generation systems. The prototype of this power conditioner consists of a PWM boost chopper cascaded three-phase power conditioner, a single two-switch auxiliary resonant DC-link snubber with two electrolytic capacitors incorporated into one leg of a three-phase V-connection inverter and a three-phase AC power source. The proposed cost-effective utility-interactive power conditioner implements a unique design and control system with a high-frequency soft switching sinewave PWM scheme for all system switches. The operating performance of the 10 kW experimental setup including waveform quality, EMI/RFI noises and actual efficiency characteristics of the proposed power conditioner are demonstrated on the basis of the measured data.

In the variable speed driving system of a three phase induction motor controlled by a PWM inverter, the output terminal contains considerable amount of harmonic components of the voltage waveform due to the switching action of semiconductor devices, causing torque ripples, acoustic noise and oscillation of the motor. This paper describes a new algorithm which eliminates the harmonics and controls the fundamental voltage in three phase PWM inverter output waveform. The new algorithm utilizes the technique of particular harmonics elimination (PHE) by walsh series in three phase PWM inverter output waveform. A microprocessor (8086 CPU)-controlled three phase induction motor system is described to realize this algorithm. The system is designed for 3 phase output voltage in the 1-60Hz interval where 5th and 7th harmonics, and 5th, 7th, 11th, and 13th harmonics are eliminated. Also, the fundamental wave amplitude is designed to be proportional to the output frequency. The performance of the proposed method shows sufficient elimination of the harmonics and also reduction of computation time which determines switching pattern. The proposed PWM pattern by Walsh series, is effective not only to induction motors but also to other electromagetic equipments such as voltage regulators and UPS.
