Advances in AC drive technology

Proceedings of IEEE Technical Conference on Rubber and Plastics Industry, 2002
Today, the adjustable speed AC drive industry is experiencing dynamic advances in applying various new technologies to standard drives which were historically confined to research labs. These advances are leading to many practical benefits for the users of this type of equipment including: lower initial costs, smaller size, robustness to eliminate ...

Application of an AC winder drive

Annual Technical Conference on Pulp and Paper Industry, 2002
The first major installation of AC adjustable speed drive technology in North America was in 1987 on a Kraft linerboard machine at Union Camp Corporation's (UCC) Savannah, GA, papermill. The success of that installation led to the application of AC drive technology to a high-speed electric backstand winder in the UCC Savannah mill in 1988-9.

AC drives in metal industries

Proceedings of Second International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems, 2002
Today all variable speed drives (VSDs) in the metallurgical industry are AC drives. These range from simple Volts/Hertz (V/Hz) to vector controlled drives. Insulated gate bipolar transistor pulse-width modulated (IGBT PWM) inverters offer power ratings up to a few megawatts.

Regeneration for AC drive systems

Proceedings of 1994 IEEE/IAS Annual Textile, Fiber and Film Industry Technical Conference, 2002
The need for regenerated voltage control of an AC variable speed drive occurs when a mechanical system connected to an induction motor causes the motor to rotate at a higher frequency than the control frequency of the variable speed providing power to the motor.

AC drive technology for locomotives

Proceedings., Technical Papers Presented at the IEEE/ASME Joint Railroad Conference, 2003
The author describes the use of GTO (gate turn-off) thyristors and microprocessor technology in connection with three-phase AC drive engineering for locomotives. The high power ratings of these devices, combined with efficient evaporation-bath cooling methods, have reduced the size and weight of the necessary powerful onboard converter equipment; AC ...

AC Drives in Traction Applications

IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, 1986
DC motors and drives have previously been the choice for traction applications. The desire to use an induction motor in similar applications has been unfulfilled due to the absence of a suitable ac drive controller that could fully exploit the economical, rugged, and simple ac induction motor.

An AC Drive Electric Vehicle

IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, 1974
This paper indicates the market for a van-type electric vehicle, provides the physical description, and presents the electrical principle of operation of a frequency modulated and pulsewidth modulated power system applied to a 27-kW three-phase squirrelcage age induction motor.

Vector controlled AC drives

Forty-First Annual Conference of Electrical Engineering Problems in the Rubber and Plastics Industries, 2003
The basic conceptual principles of operation of vector-controlled AC drives and field-oriented controllers are presented, and the direct and indirect implementations are briefly described. The key performance capability of torque control is emphasized, and mention is made of the difficulties in achieving the desired performance arising from feedback ...

Power electronics for ac drives

2010
This chapter discusses power electronics for AC drives. Integration of power electronic systems today is at the stage where a single integrated power module consisting of a full active bridge of power semiconductors, integrated gate drivers, and fault detection and reporting logic is available off the shelf.
