Abstract

This paper presents Power Generation for Permanent Magnet Motor Elevator by Energy Regenerative Unit (ERU). The study reveals that permanent magnet motors with rated 5.5kW in elevators which is working by transferring mechanical energy into electricity when the motor is rotating without power therefore the motor is capable of producing electrical energy back into the grid system. This situation is call “Regenerative mode” which is the wasted energy can be used once again [1]. The study is done by simulation using MATLAB/Simulink program. This investigated ERU and inverter in this study can be applied for future use of in existing elevator system. The Proposed ERU is used to convert DC voltage to AC voltage for gird synchronization. The investigated ERU is operating as three-phase module. From experiment, it is observed that when the motor operates as a generator then ERU will receive DC voltage from the elevator inverter system then convert to AC voltage that can be fed into the grid system.
