The high level of electrical energy consumption of induction motors widely used in the industrial sector has increased interest in this sector to search for strategies to improve energy efficiency in order to save energy. During the last decade, the use of power inverters for speed control system applications in induction motors has increased considerably. Its main advantage is its capacity to improve energy efficiency, which depends mainly on the modulation technique used. In this paper, a comparative analysis of the output voltage behaviour of a three-phase dual inverter using an open-end winding induction motor was performed. For the comparative analysis, four modulation techniques: 1. Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM), 2. Alternative Phase Opposite Disposition Pulse Width Modulation (APOD-PWM), 3. Third Harmonic Injection Pulse Width Modulation (THI-PWM), and 4. Carrier Based Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (CB-SVPWM), were applied. The comparison of the simulation results was carried out using the PSim software.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
