Abstract |
|
In this paper instead of a classical multilevel inverter, a hybrid multilevel inverter is proposed to drive three phase induction motors. The proposed topology includes a three-phase inverter supplied by a DC voltage and three single-phase H-bridge inverters each supplied by separate DC sources. To maximize the output voltage levels of the hybrid multilevel inverter, the voltage of the single-phase inverters is half of the value of the three phase bridge inverter DC source [1][2]. In SPWM, POD technique is used to generate the gate pulses. A three phase induction motor is connected as load and its performance characteristics are analysed. Simulations have been carried out in MATLAB–Simulink R2013a (8.1.0.604) to study the performance of the proposed prototype. |
