4.1 Single Phase Converter

This is the output wave form of single-phase bridge converter. The wave form shows that the
output is not pure dc therefore there are some ripples in this output

4.2 Conduction mode of inverter

Let we generate 50 Hz:

f=50 Hz

Total Time period=1/50 =0.02sec

Used transistors=6

For each transistor time period =0.02/6 =3.33ms

T1 00 0.01m
T2 600 3.33m

T3 1200 6.66m

T4 1800 9.99m

T5 2400 13.25m

T6 3000 16.65m

According to this table there are six transistors that used to convert dc supply into three phase Ac
supply.

4.3 Output waveform of inverter (Using Pulse Generator)

Each transistor conducts for a period of 1800. Three of the transistors remain on at any instant of
time. When T1is switched on, terminal a is connected to positive terminal of DC input voltage.
When T2- is switched on, terminal is brought to negative terminal of dc input. There are six
modes of operation in a cycle and duration of each mode is 600.
The load can be connected in either star or delta. Switches of any leg of the inverter cannot be
switched on at the same time since this would result in a short circuit across the dc link voltage
supply. Similarly, to avoid undefined states and thus undefined ac output line voltage, the
switches of any leg of the inverter may not be switched off simultaneously since this can result in
voltages that depend on respective line current polarity.

4.5 Derivation of Line-To-Line Voltage

For 00-600

g1, g5, g6 on

g1, g5= Vac=0

Vca =0

g1, g6= Vab =Vs

g5, g6= Vcb = Vs

Vbc = -Vs
So, result is that Vab = Vs, Vbc = -Vs, Vca =0

For 600-1200

g1, g2, g6 on

g1, g2 = Vca = -Vs

g1, g6 = Vab = Vs

g2, g6 = Vbc = 0

So, result is that Vab = Vs, Vbc = 0, Vca = -Vs

For 1200-1800

g1, g2, g3 on

g1, g2 =Vca = -Vs

g2, g3 = Vbc = Vs

g1, g3 = 0 = Vab

So, result is that Vab = 0, Vbc = Vs, Vca = - Vs

For 1800-2400

g2, g3, g4 on

g2, g3 = Vbc = Vs

g2, g4 = Vca = 0

g3, g4 = Vab = -Vs

So, result is that Vab = -Vs, Vbc = Vs, Vca = 0

For 2400-3000
g3, g4, g5 on

g3, g4 = Vab = -Vs

g4, g5 = Vca = Vs

g3, g5 = Vbc = 0

So, result is that Vab = -Vs, Vbc = 0, Vca = Vs

For 3000-3600

g4, g5, g6 on

g4, g5 = Vca = Vs

g5, g6 = Vbc = -Vs

g4, g6=0

So, result is that Vab = 0, Vbc = -Vs, Vca = Vs
