A two-motor centre-driven winder drive fed by a five-leg voltage source inverter

Drazen Dujic

Recent research has shown that it is possible to independently control two three-phase induction machines while supplying them via a single five-leg voltage source inverter (VSI). In such a two-motor drive system one phase of each motor is connected to a c ...
