ABSTRACT
This paper proposes a single-phase to three-phase drive system composed of two parallel single-phase rectifiers, a three-phase inverter, and an induction motor. The proposed topology permits to reduce the rectifier switch currents, the harmonic distortion at the input converter side, and presents improvements on the fault tolerance characteristics. Even with the increase in the number of switches, the total energy loss of the proposed system may be lower than that of a conventional one. The model of the system is derived, and it is shown that the reduction of circulating current is an important objective in the system design. A suitable control strategy, including the pulse width modulation technique (PWM), is developed. Experimental results are presented as well.

EQUIPMENT USED IN THIS DRIVE SYSYTEM

INDUCTION MOTOR

CONVERTER
INVERTER

INDUCTION MOTOR DRIVES

The ac induction motor is by far the most widely used motor in the industry. Traditionally, it has been used in constant and variable-speed drive applications that do not cater for fast dynamic processes. Because of the recent development of several new control technologies, such as vector and direct torque controls, this situation is changing rapidly.

AC-DC CONVERTER (RECTIFIER)

A rectifier is an electrical device that converts alternating current (AC), which periodically reverses direction, to direct current (DC), which is in only one direction, a process known as rectification. Rectifiers have many uses including as components of power supplies and as detectors of radio signals. Rectifiers may be made of solid state diodes, vacuum tube diodes, mercury arc valves, and other components.

APPLICATION OF CONVERTER
Detection of amplitude modulated radio

signals polarized voltage for welding

DC- AC CONVERTER (INVERTER)

An inverter is an electrical device that converts direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC); the converted AC can be at any required voltage and frequency with the use of appropriate transformers, switching, and control circuits.

APPLICATION OF INVERTER
DC power source utilization

Uninterruptible power supplies

Induction heating HVDC power transmission

CONTROL STRATEGY

FAULT COMPENSATION

The proposed system presents redundancy of the rectifier converter, which can be useful in fault-tolerant systems. The proposed system can provide compensation for open-circuit and short-circuit failures occurring in the rectifier or inverter converter devices. The fault compensation is achieved by reconfiguring the power converter topology with the help of isolating devices (fast active fuses)

The fault detection and identification is carried out in four steps:

Measurement of pole voltages .
Computation of the voltage error by comparison

of reference voltages and measurements affected in Step (1). Determination as to whether these errors correspond or not to a faulty condition; this can be implemented by the hysteresis detector. Identification of the faulty switches by using.

LOSSES
1) IGBT and diode conduction losses.

2) IGBT turn-ON losses.

3) IGBT turn-OFF losses.

4) Diode turn-OFF energy.

COSTS AND APPLICATIONS OF CONFIGURATION

The initial investment of the proposed system is higher than that of the standard one, since the number of switches and devices such as fuses and triacs is highest. But, considering the scenario when faults may occur, the drive operation needs to be stopped for a non programmed maintenance schedule.

CONCLUSION
single-phase to three-phase drive system composed of two Prallel single-phase rectifiers, a three-phase inverter and an induction motor was proposed. The system combines two parallel rectifiers without the use of transformers. The system model and the control strategy, including the PWM technique, have been developed. The complete comparison between the proposed and standard configurations has been carried out in this paper. Compared to the conventional topology, the proposed system permits to reduce the rectifier switch currents
