A dual inverter combine boost converter qSBI for open-end winding induction motor

Abstract

A Dual boost inverter for open-end winding induction motor has been used to improve the power of the induction motor and reduce the number of power switches. However, this configuration still has many disadvantages: the ac output voltage is less than dc input voltage and switches on the same leg turn on at the same time must be avoided. To solve this problem, this paper presents a dual inverter combine boost converter qSBI for open-end winding induction motor configuration that is used for low energies such as solar energy, fuel cell, and battery. With the proposed configuration, the ac output is higher than the dc input without a DC-DC converter and the switches on the same leg can turn on at the same time. Simulation and experimental results will be presented to demonstrate the new features.
