Current source inverter motor drive adapted for full current regenerative mode operation

摘要

A current source inverter operates in a full current regenerative mode without the use of a tachometer, rather a constant volts-per-hertz loop is used in a motor feedback loop to generate a torque signal determining the current reference in a DC link current control loop, and the DC link voltage is sensed to derive a signal in magnitude and sign to allow maximizing current control under torque limits established on the basis of such sensed DC link voltage.
