Abstract :
In this paper a new topology of three-level inverters with ten-switch is proposed to control low voltage three phase induction motor. Ten-switch inverter is a reduced-switch-count three level inverter which compared to conventional topologies such as NPC, CHB and flying capacitor has lower count of semiconductor switches. Thus, it enjoys from lower cost, lower volume and lower weight. In this paper, a direct torque control (DTC) scheme based on switching table is developed to control a ten switch inverter. Simulation results of controlling induction motor fed by a conventional two-level inverter, NPC and proposed 10 switch inverter are presented and they are compared together in different aspects. Results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed topology and its control method.
