In order to improve the efficiency, we should know the loss characteristics of inverter-fed induction motors. We first have to accurately measure the total motor losses, and then obtain each loss component by reasonably separate the total motor losses. In this paper, the total losses of a 5.5 kW, a 22 kW, a 30 kW, a 37 kW, a 45 kW and a 55 kW induction motors under sinusoidal supply and PWM inverter...
In this paper, a dual parallel connected brushless direct current (BLDC) motors drive system fed by a single inverter is presented and the control method for stable operation in electric vehicles (EVs) application is proposed. To obtain the stability of such a system, both motors should always be respect the synchronism even if they have different load torque. The proposed control method is based...
The open-ended winding configuration allows feeding an electric motor from two sides. If one of them is connected to an inverter closed on a floating capacitor, operating as an active power filter, it is possible to obtain several benefits over the traditional configuration, such as an extended field weakening speed range and a lower current ripple. However, the additional converter causes switching...

Identical shaped stator/rotor cores are manufactured by using several kinds of electrical steel sheets from low to high grades. Then, the characteristics of these motors...
Finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC) has become very popular form of predictive control among the technical society.

This paper presents the use of a novel method dealing with mathematical morphology to de-noise spectral contents. This approach is based on two fundamental operators which are dilation and erosion. This type of filter does not need a huge computing time because the operations involved are simple. The goal of this filter in the application considered in this paper is to de-noise the spectrum of the...

Conventionally, Selective Harmonic Elimination (SHE) method in 2-level inverters, finds best switching angles to reach first voltage harmonic to reference level and eliminate other harmonics, simultaneously. Considering Induction Motor (IM) as the inverter load, and wide DC bus voltage variations, the inverter must operate in both over-modulation and linear modulation region. Main objective of the...
Fault detection in induction motors in non-stationary regimes managed by inverters is an existing industrialized demand. Inverter-fed machines have being used due to their adjustable velocity and quick dynamic response, although the injection of objectionable frequency components. The condition monitoring of these motors can significantly reduce the cost of maintenance in the early detection of faults...

High inertial loads are abundant in the industry and most of them are direct on line starter type induction machines with double cage rotors. Due to their higher starting time higher power dissipation in the rotor makes the rotor wear out and eventually gets destroyed. A new starting method proposed herein makes the motor start quickly and smoothly by using an inverter. After reaching it's steady...
