A braking scheme for inverter FED AC induction traction motors (IM-ES-035)

Last updated on 02 August 2013 2:51

A scheme is proposed for use particularly with the tubular-axle induction motor, which enables an inverter-fed induction motor to operate as a generator when braking. The power generated can be much higher than the power rating of the inverter because the inverter is used only to provide magnetising current. The...
