with Power Quality Improvement in Hybrid-

Multilevel Inverter Based VCIMD
Piyush Kant, Bhim Singh

Abstract— This paper proposes a new three-phase to five-phase transformer, with a 30-pulse AC-DC converter for power quality
improvement in vector-controlled induction motor drive (VCIMD). Here, three isolated transformers (T1, T2 and T3) are used and
each transformer is designed to convert three phase AC-supply into five phase AC-supply, to achieve 10-pulse AC-DC conversion.
A unique configuration and angle among these three transformers, are designed in such a way that the resultant input current of
this transformer shows 30-pulses in it. A hybrid multilevel inverter is proposed in this work, which is cascading a 3-level neutral
point clamped (NPC) inverter with a 2-level voltage source inverter (VSI) to drive an IM. A modified level shifted carrier based
sinusoidal pulse width modulation and a 3rd harmonic injection techniques are utilized to modify the modulating signal, to
enhance the fundamental magnitude and to reduce the harmonics than traditional technique. The responses of proposed MVIMD,
are evaluated by simulating in MATLAB-Simulink. The proposed MVIMD performance is then verified using a scaled down
laboratory prototype under various operating conditions such as steady state, starting, load perturbation, speed control, field
weakening, varying load conditions and over a wide speed range of IM.
