A system is described whereby floating capacitor H-bridge converters are located in each phase between the utility grid and a squirrel cage induction motor. Injecting a series voltage in each phase, the power electronics can be used to control the motor voltage during starting and hence limit the motor starting current to the desired level. The motor voltage can also be used under steady-state operation...
This paper presents a control technique for smoothing voltage oscillations in the sub-modules of Modular Multilevel Converter during start-up operations of high-power medium-voltage induction motor drive. At steady-state, the power fluctuations in each sub-module at fundamental and 2nd harmonic frequencies generate capacitor voltage oscillations which are much higher as the current frequency decreases...
Cascade multicell (CM) converters are characterized by their high modularity, allowing their power to be easily increased. This also allows any faulty module (cell) to be isolated, so the load can be fed by the remaining operative cells. This leads to operation with an unbalanced number of cells. The use of modified voltage references to avoid the unbalanced operation in steady state has been proposed...
