PV array is increasingly employed for water pumping system. In this paper, the developed boost converter steps up the voltage produced by the PV array to a value which is suitable to run a single-phase induction motor. The inverter converts DC to AC is controlled by using sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) technique. By using a LCfilter the harmonics are eliminated and pure sine wave is o...

Brushless dc (BLDC) motor drives are continually gaining popularity in motion control applications. Therefore, it is necessary to have a low cost, but effective BLDC motor speed/torque regulator. They are used in Residential and commercial appliances such as refrigerators and air conditioning systems with conventional motor drive technology. A Brushless DC (BLDC) drives are known for higher eff...

The paper deals with steady state modeling of static slip energy recovery controlled slip ring induction motor drive. The dc equivalent circuit model of the drive is developed using power balance relationship. The steady state performance equations of the drive are derived using the model. The predicted performance characteristics of the drive are compared with the experimental investigation. T...

Voltage sags are normally described by magnitude variation and duration. In addition to these quantities, sags are also characterized by unbalance (asymmetry), nonsinusoidal waveshapes, and phase angle shift (phase jump). These factors are important for determining the behavior of ac motor drives during sags. Voltage unbalance and phase angle shifts cause large unbalanced source currents to, ex...

Received Jan 17, 2017 Revised Mar 17, 2017 Accepted Mar 31, 2017 Brushless DC motor is a synchronous machine that makes use of electronic commutation instead of mechanical commutator. Brushless DC motors makes use of inverter encompassing static switches for its operation. A simple bridge converter when used for BLDC drive as front end converter makes input source power factor to get reduced wh...

The provides dc–ac power conversion unique buck–boost capability to compensate the variation of cell terminal voltage load power. In comparison conventional boost inverter, connection dc–dc and source proposed has significant benefits much s...

This paper deals with the design of a Cuk DC-DC converter for a BLDC drive. A three-phase voltage source inverter is used as an electronic commutator to operate PMBLDCM used in a fan. It uses the concept of the voltage control at dc link proportional to the desired speed of the PMBLDCM. The speed of the motor is controlled to have the optimum speed of the fan and also to improve the power facto...

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...
