It is to solve the difficulty of traditional AC motor speed regulation. The structure of the speed control equipment is complex and the efficiency and reliability are not satisfactory.

4, the working principle and control method of the inverter

The formula for the speed of the AC motor is:

N=60f(1-s)/p

Where: f—frequency;

P—pole logarithm;

S—slip rate (0 to 3% or 0 to 6%);

4.1. Frequency control principle

Inverter: Change the power frequency of the three-phase asynchronous motor, you can change the synchronous speed to achieve the purpose of speed regulation.

The rated frequency is called the fundamental frequency. When the frequency conversion is adjusted, it can be adjusted upward from the fundamental frequency (constant power speed regulation), or it can be adjusted downward from the fundamental frequency (constant rotation speed regulation). Therefore, the variable frequency speed control mode is much simpler than changing the two parameters of the pole log p and the slip rate s.

4.2. Inverter control algorithm

The core of the AC speed control is: only to keep the motor flux constant to ensure the output of the motor, in order to obtain the desired speed control effect;

V/F control - simple and practical, general performance, most widely used, as long as the output voltage and output frequency are constant, the flux can be kept at a constant low frequency, the stator voltage drop will cause the magnetic flux to drop, and the output voltage needs to be appropriate. improve;

Vector control - excellent performance, comparable to DC speed control, late maturity, mimicking the control method of DC motor, using vector coordinate transformation to achieve decoupling control of stator excitation current component and torque current component of asynchronous motor, keeping The motor flux is constant, which in turn achieves good torque control performance for high performance control. Excellent performance and the same complexity of control;

PWM (Pulse Width ModulaTIon) modulation

The PWM modulation is to modulate the DC voltage into a voltage-variable, variable-frequency voltage pulse train by turning on and off the semiconductor switching device.

· SPWM modulation is: PWM waveform obtained by the intersection of triangular wave and sine wave directly controls each switch to obtain the output pulse voltage of pulse width and sinusoidal variation with variable duty ratio between pulses, which can achieve ideal control effect: Output current is approximately sinusoidal

· The carrier frequency must be high to ensure that the waveform obtained after modulation has the same effect as before the modulation

·GTR inverter has a high switching noise because the switching frequency is too low, and the IGBT effectively solves this problem.
