Fuel cells produce electricity directly from hydrogen in the form of DC voltage. The fuel cells generators often produce the DC power at relatively low voltage and the voltage depends on the operation conditions; hence, it is necessary to increase and stabilize the output voltage by means of an electronic power converter. The paper deals with a well-known soft switching H bridge DC/DC converter, w...Show More

Year: 2002 | Conference Paper |
EMI filters for equipment, in which power electronic converters are used, often are designed by trial and error. Moreover, the design is carried out taking into account the total noise produced by the equipment. Thanks to the separation of the noise into the differential mode and the common mode components, it is possible to understand which of the two components is dominant and therefore the filt...Show More

A comparison among hard switching (HS), zero voltage switching (ZVS) and zero voltage switching zero current switching (ZVS-ZCS) converters is proposed. For high voltage (400-800V), high power (from 5 to 50 kVA) applications, where IGBTs are predominantly used, the maximum operating switching frequency for hard switching IGBT converters is 20 kHz. To reduce the size of the passive components used ...Show More

Proceedings of the Power Conversion Conference-Osaka 2002 (Cat. No.02TH8579)
Year: 2002 | Conference Paper |
Multiphase AC motor drives (with more than three phases) have some potential advantages as widely discussed in the literature. The DC-link capacitor size depends on the current RMS value, in particular, if the drive is supplied by a DC source, the current requested to the capacitor is basically determined by inverter input current AC component. The analytical computation of the capacitor current R...Show More

Equipment supplied by static converters require a careful examination of the harmonic distortion, which affects the power supply system. The conventional frequency domain approach for investigating the harmonic pollution often produces results which may be inaccurate to some extent due to the simplified approximations used. In this paper, a simulation of some selected case of typical converters us...Show More

In this paper, a design method for a simplified speed observer for a speed sensorless field oriented (F.O.) controlled induction motor drive is proposed. The method is based on the stability analysis of the drive operation, on the torque vs. speed plane. A decoupling control is used to generate the voltage commands from the current commands instead of current regulators. The speed is estimated usi...Show More
