Recently, many vehicles have applied electric parts for saving fuel consumption and reducing levels of environmental pollution. ISG (Integrated Starter and Generator) system is one of main electric parts of following these trends and can improve fuel efficiency. If ISG motor and inverter are driven by appropriate switching time, it can be a more efficient system operation than existing ISG oper...

This paper summarizes recently developed soft-switching inverters and proposes two alternative options for electric propulsion drives. The newly developed soft-switching inverter employs an auxiliary switch and a resonant inductor per phase to produce a zero voltage across the main switch so that the main switch can turn on at the zero-voltage condition. Both the auxiliary switch and the resona...

INTRODUCTION IT is about 30 years since electric trains using VVVF (variable voltage variable frequency) inverter control first appeared in Japan. Since then, VVVF inverters for rolling stock (referred to below as “inverters”) have undergone a steady stream of improvements. The driving forces behind this development have been the high degree of safety and reliability demanded for social infrast...

Safe operation of electric motor drives is of prime research interest in various industrial applications. This paper presents a new fault diagnosis system for open circuit switch faults in three phases Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) drive of the permanent magnet Brushless DC (BLDC) motors. The proposed fault diagnosis system is capable of detecting as well as identifying the faulty switch in the...

In this paper, a new six-phase pole-changing induction motor drive is proposed to extend the constant-power operating range for electric vehicle application. The double Fourier series is newly employed to analyze the spectra of the motor phase voltage and current. Consequently, the harmonic expression of the inverter dc-link current can be derived. In order to reduce the dc-link harmonics, a ne...

This paper presents a model predictive control (MPC) of a utility interactive three phase inverter (TPI) for a photovoltaic (PV) system at commercial level. The proposed model uses phase locked loop (PLL) to synchronize the TPI with the power electric grid (PEG) and performs MPC control in a dq reference frame. TPI model consists of a boost converter (BC), maximum power point tracking (MPPT) co...

Four di erent CMOS inverter delay models are derived and compared. It is shown that inverter delay can be estimated with fair accuracy over a wide range of input rise times and loads as the sum of two terms, one proportional to the input rise time, and one proportional to the capacitive load. Methods for estimating device capacitance from HSPICE parameters are presented, as well as means of inc...

A drive system with an open-end winding permanent magnet synchronous motor (OW-PMSM) fed by a dual inverter and powered by two independent power sources is suitable for electric vehicles. By using an energy conversion device as primary power source and an energy storage element as secondary power source, this configuration can not only lower the DC-bus voltage and extend the driving range, but ...
