Continuous, Discontinuous & Level shifted PWM Algorithms for IM Drive

Meer over het boek

More than half of the total electrical power generated is converted into mechanical energy using electric motors and 90% of the drives are induction motors. Nowadays the adjustable speed drives fed from power electronics converters are mostly utilized for industrial applications. As indicated by the title, this book is devoted to generating various PWM algorithms for Power Electronic converter system to achieve adjustable speed operation for the drive. The main goal of the book was to attract students in the field of Power Electronics and Drives with new advanced Pulse Width Modulation Algorithms. This book will be useful to Engineering academics and undergraduate, postgraduate, and Research Scholars. The readers are assumed to have a good foundation on electrical machines (including reference frame theory and transformation techniques), control theory, and basics of control of PWM inverters. It also provides a practical guide to research students to get started with the implementation of different types of PWM Algorithms for Voltage Source Inverter fed Induction Motor Drives and Converter Systems for Solar Power Applications.
