This paper presents a new configuration of voltage source inverter with a simplified circuit for generating five-level pulse width modulation (PWM) voltage waveform. Compared with conventional inverter configuration, this circuit is drastically able to simplify the structure and reduce the required number of active switch components. The new inverter circuit is very suitable for the use of open-end connection loads such as open-end winding ac motor drive application. Instead of using separated dc power sources, the new inverter circuit configuration is also possible to utilize only one dc voltage source, so the power supply circuits can be made simpler. Furthermore, to reduce ripples of dc capacitor voltages, the voltage stabilizing circuit of capacitors at the input side was proposed and applied. The stabilizing circuit is capable to work reducing the size of dc capacitors, and maintaining voltage stability of capacitors through charging and discharging operation modes. The working principles of inverter circuit were evaluated and examined by means of computer simulations using PSIM software. In addition, experimental test results of the prototype were also provided. Test results proved that the new five-level PWM inverter operated well generating five-level output waveform with smaller distortion and less voltage ripples of dc capacitors.

<p>A simplified circuit topology of the five-level pulse width modulation (PWM) inverter for DC-AC power conversion with no-isolated DC voltage sources and reduced switching device number is presented in this paper. The inverter circuit is based on the three-level H-bridge inverter configuration. The developed five-level inverter needs only five controlled power switches and four isolated gate drive circuits. Furthermore, the proposed topology does not require bidirectional power semiconductor controlled switches, hence a conventional discrete power MOSFETs or IGBTs can be used to build the inverter circuits. To obtain a better quality output voltage waveform, the level-phase-shifted carriers based sinusoidal pulse width modulation control was applied to produce a five-level PWM voltage waveform. The proposed inverter circuit was examined by using computer simulation with Power PSIM software. The basic principle operation of the inverter circuit was verified experimentally in laboratory using two non-isolated DC voltage sources as the inputs of the inverter’s prototype circuit. Some analysis of inverter’s output waveforms are provided and discussed. <em></em></p>

This paper presents an efficient and reliable Genetic Algorithm based solution for Selective Harmonic Elimination (SHE) switching pattern. This method eliminates considerable amount of lower order line voltage harmonics in Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) inverter. Determination of pulse pattern for the elimination of some lower order harmonics of a PWM inverter necessitates solving a system of nonlinear transcendental equations. Genetic Algorithm is used to solve nonlinear transcendental equations for PWM-SHE. Many methods are available to eliminate the higher order harmonics and it can be easily removed. But the greatest challenge is to eliminate the lower order harmonics and this is successfully achieved using Genetic Algorithm without using Dual transformer. Simulations using MATLABTM and Powersim with experimental results are carried out to validate the solution. The experimental results show that the harmonics up to 13th were totally eliminated.

This paper presents a novel digital control scheme for the regulation of single-phase voltage source pulse width modulation (PWM) inverters used in AC power sources. The proposed scheme adopts two deadbeat controllers to regulate the inner current loop and the outer voltage loop of the PWM inverter. For the overhead of digital processing, the change of duty of PWM lags one carrier period behind the sampling signal, which is modeled as a first-order lag unit in a discrete domain. Based on this precise modeling, the deadbeat controllers make the inverter get a fast dynamic response, so that the inverter’s output voltage is obtained with a very low total harmonic distortion (THD), even when the load is fluctuating. The parameter sensitivity of the deadbeat control was analyzed, which shows that the proposed deadbeat control system can operate stably when the LC filter’s parameters vary within the range allowed. The experimental results of a 2kW inverter prototype show that the THD of the output voltage is less than 3% under resistive and rectifier loads, which verifies the feasibility of the proposed scheme. An additional advantage of the proposed scheme is that the parameter design of the controller can be fully programmed without the experience of a designer.

This study aims to create a PWM inverter that can drive the Brushless Unidirectional Flow Machine (MASTS). PWM inverters are intended to correct deficiencies in six-step inverters. Inverter is a circuit that is used to convert a DC voltage source into an AC voltage with a certain frequency. The use of inverters is found in electric vehicles. The system often used to control an inverter is a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) based control, where pulse width is used to regulate speed. The inverter is tested using 3 pairs of mosfets as a switch to control the three-phase output of the inverter. In the inverter, PWM is used to adjust the width of the frequency pulse that will be given to the mosfet. This research used 3 variations of duty cycle 30%, 60%, 90% to determine the effect of MASTS speed on PWM by using a PWM inverter. The results of this study the speed of MASTS can be influenced by changes in duty cycle, with increasing value of the duty cycle, the faster the speed of MASTS, and vice versa. Keywords:Mosfet, Sensor Hall, MASTS, PWM, Inverter.

AbstractA 4-level flying capacitor converter (FCC) operation is considered on a base of discrete state-space model. A transition matrix is obtained for a pulse width modulation (PWM) period for large normalised voltage command values [1/3, 1). The transition matrix elements are expanded into power series by small parameters. The matrix eigenvalues are presented in the form of power series as well. Six separate transients are constructed for six possible initial FCC states on a PWM period. Inductor current and capacitors’ voltage transients are found for the voltage source power-up as the arithmetic average of the six separate transients. Finally, the discrete solutions are replaced by equivalent continuous ones. Simple and accurate formulas for inductor current and capacitors’ voltage transients demonstrate good agreement with simulation results.

In this paper, a design by optimization process is used to size a 10-kW three-phase pulse width modulation (PWM) inverter for aeronautic application. The objective function is the converter weight, which has to be minimized. Sizing constraints are the efficiency, alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) harmonics, and thermal constraints on all devices. A deterministic algorithm is chosen since it allows obtaining quick results and dealing with a large number of variables. All equations are analytical, in order to comply with this gradient-based optimization strategy, which imposes the derivability of the models. Several optimization results using different AC inductor solutions (iron powder and ferrite) are compared. The optimized converters were built and tested experimentally to verify their performances. Semiconductor and inductor losses were measured accurately using calorimetric test benches. The optimality of the solutions was carefully verified by changing parameters.
