Inverters and power quality

Description

The objective of this course is to introduce the fundamental notions for understanding the functioning of an inverter and its reaction depending on its load and of its power supply network. This training allows to deepen students’ understanding of the power components used in energy conversion systems through the particular study of some of them. - Recap on the operation of alternating current motor – Couple and Speed characteristics. Principles of speed variation. - Power components, MOS transistor. - Single-phase and three-phase inverters: principles of MLI and full-wave operation. - Harmonic study of the output of the inverter. - Reversibility of the inverter. Application to PWM rectifiers with sinusoidal current absorption. - Multi-level converters. HVDC link.
