Abstract
The relevance of the study lies in the search for energy-saving technologies. So, at present, the most common type of electric drive in industry is asynchronous, most of which are unregulated. Replacing an unregulated electric drive with an adjustable one in various units can significantly reduce energy consumption, increase the life of the mechanical part of the drive and improve the quality of the adjustable process parameter. The replacement consists in installing an electronic frequency converter between the network and the motor of the device. This device changes the rotational speed of the motor rotor by changing the frequency and amplitude of the supply voltage. The most common are frequency converters with an intermediate DC link. Such devices are built on electronic keys, which are made on IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) transistors. Using the NI Multisim14 software, a model was created to determine power savings during the implementation of VFD.The paper gives the rationale for the introduction of a frequency-controlled electric drive (VFD) to optimize technological processes in electrical complexes and systems, in particular, a complete analysis of the energy efficiency of VFD application in pumped water supply systems is presented as an example. The calculation of its economic efficiency for a particular installation is also given.
