Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立清華大學 === 電機工程學系 === 85 === This thesis presents the design and implementation of a resonant snubber-based soft switching inverter and its application to an indirect field-oriented induction motor drive, such that its switching frequency can be chosen higher to possess better switching operation character- istics. First, according to the comparative survey among the commonly used pulse width modulation(PWM) techniques, the current-controlled space vector PWM is adopted to let this proposed soft switching inverter be normally oper- ated and have good current tracking performance. Compared with the other existed soft switching techniques, the resonant snubber-based soft switching is the easiest one to be implemented, since the soft switching of a tra- ditional PWM inverter can be successfully achieved by simply adding an auxiliary resonant circuit and suitable switching control signals for main and auxiliary switches. The operation, equivalent circuits and governed equations in various modes of the proposed soft switching inverter are analyzed in detail. The accordingly, a systematic design procedure is proposed to design the components of the auxiliary resonant circuit and the delay times of switches for achieving zero voltage transition control. No additional voltage and current sensors are required. Having tested the validity of the designed soft switching scheme by simulation, circuit implementation of the designed soft switching inverter used in an indirect field-oriented induction motor drive is performed. Some measured results show that smaller switching loss and thus higher inverter conversion efficiency are obtained through using the designed soft switching inverter. In addition, the current tracking and speed dynamic responses of the inverter-fed motor drive are not affected by adding the proposed soft switching scheme.
