Multiphase electric motors have smaller torque pulsations and are more reliable that their three-phase alternatives. However, standard electricity grids around the world are three-phase, so power inverter is needed to drive multiphase motors. Inverter is used not only to power the motor, but also to control the am­plitude and frequency of the produced voltage, thus controlling motor speed and torque. Multiphase systems with odd number of phases have been widely investigated; therefore, this paper focuses on a six-phase inverter with a single neutral symmetrical load. A novel asymmetrical space vector modulation scheme is proposed and evaluated using simulations in Matlab/Simulink. Simulation results are compared to other modulation schemes. The proposed method is suitable for generating near-sinusoidal output voltages; however, it might not be suited for driving motors with sinusoidally distributed stator windings. Daugiafaziai elektros varikliai turi mažesnes sukimo momento pulsacijas ir didesnį patikimumą, lyginant su trifaziais varikliais. Pasaulyje paplitę trijų fazių elektros tinklai, todėl daugiafaziams varikliams maitinti reikalingi dažnio keitikliai, keičiantys standartinę vienfazę arba trifazę tinklo įtampą į daugiafazę. Dažnio keitiklis keičia ir išėjimo įtampos amplitudę, ir dažnį. Tai sudaro galimybių tiksliai valdyti variklio greitį. Literatūroje plačiai išnagrinėti daugiafazės įtampos formavimo metodai, esant nelyginiam fazių skaičiui. Darbe siūlomas naujas erdvinių vektorių asimetrinis įtampos formavimo algoritmas šešių fazių dažnio keitikliui, apkrautam simetrine apkrova su viena neutrale. Algoritmas tiriamas Matlab / Simulink programa, rezultatai palyginami su gautais, taikant kitus šešiafazės įtampos formavimo metodus.

The multi level inverter system is habitually exploited in AC drives, when both reduced harmonic contents and high power are required. In this paper, a new topology for three phase asymmetrical multilevel inverter employing reduced number of switches is introduced. With less number of switches, the cost, space and weight of the circuit are automatically reduced. This paper discusses the new topology, the switching strategies and the operational principles of the chosen inverter. Simulation is carried out using MATLAB-SIMULINK. Various conventional PWM techniques that are appropriate to the chosen circuit such as PDPWM, PODPWM, APODPWM, VFPWM and COPWM are employed in this work. COPWM technique affords the less THD value and also affords a higher fundamental RMS output voltage.

In recent years, renewable energy generation has been coming up for effective use of natural energy, such as wind energy. Induction generators consisting squirrel-cage rotors are widely used as wind generators because of their salient features like robust rotor design, simplicity in the construction, maintenance free operation, etc. In this paper, it is derived that the transient current, electromechanical torque, and active power taking into account rotor speed change of induction generators at three-phase fault conditions. The output equations of the induction generator has nonlinearity, and the speed-time characteristic in a fault period is also expressed by the nonlinear equation. The approximation to derive analytical formulas for transient conditions is proposed, and the transient behavior of the induction generator is analyzed by the developed equations. The simulation block diagram in MATLAB/SIMULINK is constituted using the system equation in consideration of the nonlinearity of the induction generator. The simulation results obtained from each theoretical analysis are in close agreement with that of results obtained using MATLAB/SIMULINK simulation. Furthermore, theoretical discussion also developed to determine the fault phase angle and the time at which maximum transient currents flow in the system.
