Abstract

An open-end winding induction motor drive system fed by two boost inverters with fault-tolerant capability is presented to improve the reliability and safety of the drive system. The boost inverters consist of an impedance-source network and a two-level inverter. It can realize the boost/buck function. An analysis of its fault-tolerance is presented in detail. Short circuits and open circuits are commonly considered as the two main types of faults. Therefore, the fault types of the dual boost inverters are analyzed and diagnosed. Then, two different fault-tolerant schemes are presented. The presented fault-tolerant inverters are restructured through the power switch itself. In addition, different SVPWM methods are addressed. A simulation model and an experimental platform are constructed. Simulation and experimental results verify the fault tolerance of the drive system.
