When using a three-phase variable frequency drive (VFD) powered from a single-phase ac source, the drive's output power has to be limited to prevent higher component stresses in it and in the input power system. To address this issue, many VFD manufacturers derate the drive. Typically, based on the dc-bus-voltage ripple, the output frequency of the drive is limited so that the capacitors are not overstressed...
Many Variable Frequency Drives use low pass passive filters that have wye connected capacitors for performing filtering action. While the passive filters in Active Front End (AFE) PWM drives and in matrix converters are primarily used for filtering PWM frequency components, they are also a major source of power loss as their configuration allows for the flow of circulating currents even when the main...
Diode rectifier front ends with large DC bus capacitors used in Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) draw discontinuous current from the power system resulting in poor input power factor and high input current distortion. In case of single-phase AC to DC rectifiers, the single-phase boost converter is popular and effective in improving the input power factor and reducing the input current harmonics. However,...
