TY - JOUR TI - Simulation for a Dual Inverter Feeding a Three-Phase Open-End Winding Induction Motor: A Comparative Study of PWM Techniques UR - http://doi.org/10.18280/ejee.220102 SP - 13 EP - 21 AV - public SN - 21033641 A1 - Bahena, Adolfo A1 - De León Aldaco, Susana Estefany A1 - Alquicira, Jesus JF - European Journal of Electrical Engineering ID - uninimx2237 VL - 22 N2 - The high level of electrical energy consumption of induction motors widely used in the industrial sector has increased interest in this sector to search for strategies to improve energy efficiency in order to save energy. During the last decade, the use of power inverters for speed control system applications in induction motors has increased considerably. Its main advantage is its capacity to improve energy efficiency, which depends mainly on the modulation technique used. In this paper, a comparative analysis of the output voltage behaviour of a three-phase dual inverter using an open-end winding induction motor was performed. For the comparative analysis, four modulation techniques: 1. Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM), 2. Alternative Phase Opposite Disposition Pulse Width Modulation (APOD-PWM), 3. Third Harmonic Injection Pulse Width Modulation (THI-PWM), and 4. Carrier Based Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (CB-SVPWM), were applied. The comparison of the simulation results was carried out using the PSim software. KW - dual inverter KW - open-end winding induction motor KW - PWM techniques Y1 - 2020/// IS - 1 ER -
