Description
Summary:The object of this paper is to analyse the behavior and the performances of a three-phase induction machine supplied with a five level neutral-point-clamped (NPC) inverter controlled by Selective Harmonic Eliminated Pulse-Width Modulation Technique (SHEPWM). First, the modeling of the inverter and the machine is presented. Thereafter, a theoretical study of the harmonics elimination strategy is detailed; where the genetic algorithm (GA) for elimination purposes is used. After that, this strategy is validated by simulation. Finally, a behavior of the induction machine controlled with this inverter is presented.
