Project Involved: (As a Research Assistant)
Construction of a 20 kW wide bandwidth inverter to be used as a core loss testing apparatus
Brief description of project:
Design and implementation of a 20kW high bandwidth PWM inverter to analyze core loss by applying
differ ent voltage wa ve shape at a wide range of frequencies (60Hz to 10kHz) on the core. Silicon carbide
MOSFET technology is used her e for switching purpose as it allows switching at 150kHz. Feedback
voltage control scheme has been implemented her e to ensure robust output voltage wave shapes. This
inverter is able to generate sine triangular and square wave at a wide range of frequencies and voltage
levels. Control interface has been developed utilizing CAN (Controller Area Networ k) communications.
Serving as a project leader jobs I have done so far at this project:
Implementation of bridged-T voltage control technique in the fast inverter system to secure robust
output voltage wave shape. A digest has been submitted to ECCE 2015 on this work.
Execution of two loop control (both voltage and current feedback) technique to ensur e distortion
free output voltage in the high bandwidth inverter system. A digest has also been submitted to
ECCE 2015 on this work.
Design and implementation of a filter design to get pure sinusoida l, sqaure and triangular output
voltage at very high range of frequencies (from 60Hz to 10kHz). A digest has been submitted to
ECCE 2015 too on this filter design.
Development of code in the code composer studio (CCS5) to provide PWM signal to the switches
using DSP (TI2833x series) which in turn control the driver board of the MOSFETs.
Snubber circuit design and implementation to get rid of ringing effect of switches.
Establishment of CAN( Controller Area Network) communication using LABVIEW to control
the system through displa y panel.
Flash the code in the DSP(TI2833x series) to run the system independently.
Design of circuit for differ ent sensors employed in the system like voltage sensors, current
sensors, temperature sensors.
Managing of upto 20kW power flow thr ough this inverter system.
Designing of DC link filter to secure ripple free DC bus (which is supposed to be oscillatory due
to switching of MOSFET and inductances of connection path).
Masters Thesis:
Design and implementation of high bandwidth(60 Hz to 10kHz) high power (20kW) inverter with
feedback voltage control scheme to produce sinusoidal triangular and square wa ve.(On going)
