Power-electronic inverters are becoming popular for various industrial drives applications. In recent years also high-power and medium-voltage drive applications have been installed. However, the existing solutions suffer from some important drawbacks. Hyb ...
A configurable converter topology is presented as front-end converter for a locomotive that can be operated as well on a high voltage ac-system as on a medium voltage dc-system. The configurable converter is realized on the base of a multilevel chain, wher ...
In the technology sector of power electronics and control, the multilevel converter technology is still a rather new research area, but the application possibilities in the field of power drives and energy will demand more solutions with this promising tec ...
Usually, each phase of the direct reluctance motor is fed separately by its own inverter producing a squarewave phase current depending on the rotor position. In the present work, a star-connection of the three stator phases is used and the direct reluctan ...
Abstract – The current source thyristor inverter is still today a suitable choice for supplying high power adjustable speed drives for pumps or compressors. This paper presents a 12-pulse LCI (load commutated inverter) synchronous drive for a 20 MW compres ...
This paper highlights some effects of an asymmetrical design on three phase multilevel inverters from a supply network point of view. The investigated topology is based on a series connection of single phase inverters (partial cell) in each phase. Each par ...
This paper describes some techniques to improve the output waveform quality of multilevel inverts fed-indction machines. The investigated topologies are the diode-clamped and series-connection of H-bridges. Thesetechinques are based on an unequal dc-voltag ...
Air-magnetic circuit breakers are widely used for short-circuit protection in DC electric railways or industrial plants. The well-known drawbacks of these breakers are mainly a slow breaking action, a short lifetime and high maintenance costs due to the de ...
The present paper deals with a new approach for the study of the steady - state and transient behaviour of three- phase transformers. This approach based on magnetic equivalent circuit diagrams, takes into account the nonlinear B-H curve as well as zero-se ...
The use of electrical equipment in rail and ship transportation is bound to consideration on mass and size, particularly because of conventional low frequency transformers. On this paper, an optimized multilevel converter with medium frequency transformer ...
