The aim of study of this paper is design and implementation of a simple and efficient soft switched Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for three-phase induction motor drives. Soft-switching techniques have gained popularity in recent times because they offer many advantages over hard-switched Pulse Width Modulated inverters such as higher efficiency, higher power density and better performances. The quasi-resonant DC-link is being designed, the simulation and experimental results prove that it achieves soft switching of all the main switches and resonant circuit switches at the same time it posses all the capabilities of conventional sinusoidal modulated PWM inverter. Finally, the efficiency of the Soft Switched Sinusoidal PWM (SSSPWM) inverter calculated from experimental results is compared with the conventional Hard Switched Sinusoidal PWM (HSSPWM) inverter, under identical load conditions. It is of great significance to improve the efficiency by reducing switching losses, high power density, high reliability and low electro management interference.
Key words: Hard-switching inverter pulse width modulation, resonant DC-link inverter, soft-switching inverter pulse width modulation, Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS), , ,
