Switching characteristics of the power MOSFETs are evaluated by simulation and experiment for the noise source modeling. Major parasitic components and noise propagating mode paths are measured with a time-domain reflectometry method and verified with a 3-dimensional finite element analysis tool. The inverter circuit model is then constructed using pertinent parasitic inductance and capacitance values for the active device modules, the passive components, the leads, and the interconnects. To verify the validity of the inverter model, a comparative study is performed with computer simulations and hardware experiments. The fundamental mechanisms by which the EMI noises are excited and propagated are analyzed, and the significant roles of parasitic elements coupling with device switching dynamics in EMI generation are examined. The results indicate that the identification of parasitic inductance helps verify the noise peaking frequencies. The noise mitigation effects of added DC choke and RC snubbers are also characterized and proven with both simulation and measurement.","PeriodicalId":288109,"journal":{"name":"38th IAS Annual Meeting on Conference Record of the Industry Applications Conference, 2003.","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123997837","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conductor dimensional changes effectively couple mechanical energy to the jacket. Photoacoustic effects also cause noise due to pressure waves in a thin air layer surrounding the lamp.

The three-phase SEIG is driven by a variable-speed prime mover (VSPM) such as a wind turbine for the clean alternative renewable energy in rural areas. The basic steady-state characteristics of the VSPM are considered in the three-phase SEIG approximate electro-mechanical equivalent circuit and the operating performances of the three-phase SEIG coupled by a VSPM in the steady-state analysis are evaluated and discussed on line under the conditions related to the speed changes of the prime mover and the electrical inductive load power variations with simple computation processing procedures. A three-phase SEIG prototype setup with a VSPM is implemented for the small-scale clean renewable and alternative energy utilizations. The experimental performance results give good agreements with those ones obtained from the simulation results. Furthermore, a PI controlled feedback closed-loop voltage regulation of the three-phase SEIG driven by the VSPM on the basis of the static VAr compensator (SVC) composed of the thyristor phase controlled reactor (TCR) in parallel with the thyristor switched capacitor (TSC) and the fixed excitation capacitor bank (FC) is designed and considered for the wind generation as a renewable power conditioner. The simulation analysis and experimental results obtained from the three-phase SEIG with SVC for its voltage regulation prove the practical effectiveness of the additional SVC with the PI controller-based feedback loop in the steady-state operations in terms of the fast response and the high performances.","PeriodicalId":288109,"journal":{"name":"38th IAS Annual Meeting on Conference Record of the Industry Applications Conference, 2003.","volume":"45 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129855361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An AC-to-DC PWM converter is used with phase angle control to deliver a controlled power factor for a wide speed range while maintaining a low kVA rating of the converter and the generator. The generator is a flux-switching machine, derived from a combination of the inductor alternator and the switched reluctance machine. The electrical characteristics of the generator are determined from open-circuit, short circuit and load tests performed on an experimental generator. A Simulink model is developed for the AC-to-DC PWM converter and the simulated voltage and current waveforms show that the kVA rating of the converter and the generator can be minimised through control of the power factor of the generator. This novel generator is shown to be simple to control and can be used for micro turbine applications and efficient low cost independent power generation. The converter also allows the machine to be used as an integrated starter alternator.","PeriodicalId":288109,"journal":{"name":"38th IAS Annual Meeting on Conference Record of the Industry Applications Conference, 2003.","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129543430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The expectation is that the output with the highest sensitivity to rotor time constant should be the more suitable for IFOC controller MRAC tuning. We derive the output relative sensitivity functions for steady state operation for active power, reactive power, electromagnetic torque, and the ratio of reactive power and torque to rotor time constant and study their variability as a function of slip frequency. The relative sensitivity functions are used to study their usefulness for rotor time constant tuning. No signal can give uniform satisfactory sensitivity properties over the full range of machine operation. Suggestions are given on how to tackle this issue.","PeriodicalId":288109,"journal":{"name":"38th IAS Annual Meeting on Conference Record of the Industry Applications Conference, 2003.","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127916893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The chosen control method is previously compared to several current mode and voltage mode control methods. The selection criteria in order to choose a control method are stabilization of the ballast-lamp system and low power high frequency harmonics. With current stabilization, no intermediate stages are needed between the inverter and the DC source; with low power harmonics, decreases the risk of finding acoustic resonances in the high frequency steady state operation. The proposed circuit is specially suitable for the automotive industry, because the inverter can be connected directly to a DC bus.","PeriodicalId":288109,"journal":{"name":"38th IAS Annual Meeting on Conference Record of the Industry Applications Conference, 2003.","volume":"161 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125902512","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The test system operates the IGBT in a pulsed high power active mode with controlled current and voltage. The gate-cathode voltage is used as a time-dependent temperature sensitive parameter (TSP). The TSP is calibrated versus temperature with a temperature controlled test fixture using short pulses that do not result in self heating. It is shown that the temperature calibrations for the TSP must be performed on the same IGBT, and under the same conditions for which a transient measurement is to be made. Heating transient measurements are made for both multiple paralleled chips and for a single isolated chip in the same module. Comparisons between measurements of the single IGBT chip and paralleled chips indicate that current sharing is adequate for high-current, low-voltage heating conditions but is not adequate for high-voltage, low-current conditions. Model validation results indicate good performance of a previously developed IGBT electro-, thermal model for the range of heating rates tested.","PeriodicalId":288109,"journal":{"name":"38th IAS Annual Meeting on Conference Record of the Industry Applications Conference, 2003.","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114074191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
