Al-Mustansiriya University Faculty of Engineering Electrical Engineering Department Class : Forth Year Subject : Power Electronics Inverters By: Asst Lec. Mustafa Abbas Fadel Master of Science in Electrical Engineering (Power and Machines) 2
Inverter: �An electronic device or circuitry that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). �The input voltage, output voltage and frequency, and overall power handling depend on the design of the specific device or circuitry. �The inverter does not produce any power; the power is provided by the DC source.
Type of inverter circuits There are two types of inverter circuits 1. Single Phase Inverters 2. Three Phase Inverters
� Single Phase Inverter: Circuit diagram
� Single Phase operation: -ve Circuit operation
� Single Phase operation: +ve Circuit operation
� Three Phase Inverter: Circuit Diagram
� Three Phase Inverter: Output wave forms
� THD Calculation: Output signal wave form
� THD Calculation: The total harmonic distortion (THD) is the square root of the sum of the squares of the harmonic voltages divided by the fundamental voltage, which most be under 5% which is expectable for the current wave form :
� Efficiency Calculation:
�HW. (1): Draw the circuit diagram of the single phase inverter feeds an inductive load and draw the output wave forms. �HW. (2) : Draw the output wave forms for three phase inverter provides by input DC power supply of 12 V.
