Kinematical characteristic of mechanical frictional variable speed drive

Review of Variable Speed Drive Technology By

Variable speed drive technology has advanced dramatically in the last 10 years with the advent of new power devices and magnetic materials. This has given rise to substantial confusion by users and specifiers of variable speed drive equipment. Add to that the difficulty in evaluating efficiency and power factor and the subject of drive selection becomes a daunting task indeed. There is no singl...

Modern Topology& Thermal Analysis of Drive for Variable Speed Pumped Storage Power Plant

Given the significant power generation and consumption of variable-speed pumped storage power plants (VSPSPs), it is crucial to enhance drive methods and decrease drive losses, thereby increasing productivity. This paper proposes the topology for VSPSP drivers with two level voltage source converters (2LVSC) with 6+1 converters. Hydraulic and electrical VSPSP models are presented, following whi...

Integration of synchronous machine drive system for variable speed operation

87 Abstract Based on the novel rotor speed control, the complete AC/DC/AC synchronous machine drive system is integrated. It consists of AC grid, rectifier, inverter and synchronous machine with its excitation system. All power components as well as complete control system are modeled. The sequences of machine starting, voltage control and reactive power control are then accomplished. Short cir...
