Abstract
The voltage unbalance conditions at the input rectifier stage of the AC–DC–AC rectifier-inverter fed induction motor drive is analysed. This unbalance can cause significant voltage harmonic of twice the line frequency 2f1 in the DC bus. This voltage ripple can have a degrading effect on the induction-machine performance characteristics. The authors present an analytical closed-form mathematical model and analysis of the impact of DC bus ripple voltage of the three-phase voltage source inverter with the space-vector PWM on the induction machine phase voltages, currents and torque pulsations. The analytical expressions for the voltage and current space vectors as a function of the DC bus voltage pulsation are derived. Using superposition, the separate parts of the motor currents can be determined. From the current space vectors, the torque behaviour is estimated, again as a function of DC link voltage pulsation. Next, it is shown that the DC link voltage ripple components may cause large torque pulsation. The proposed analytical method is based on the mixed p–z approach, enabling presentation of the results in lucid and closed form. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed analytical model, experimental results based on laboratory setup were obtained.
