Reliability Analysis of Component Level Redundant Topologies for solid state Fault Current Limiter
Masoud Farhadi, Mehdi Abapour, Behnam Mohammadi-Ivatloo
Experience shows that semiconductor switches in power electronics systems are the most vulnerable components. One of the most common ways to solve this reliability challenge is com…
Failure analysis and reliability evaluation of modulation techniques for neutral point clamped inverters-A usage model approach
Masoud Farhadi, Mehdi Abapour, Mehran Sabahi
Up to now, many modulation techniques have been proposed for neutral point clamped (NPC) inverters. In this paper, for the first time, a general methodology is applied to calculate…
DC-AC Converter-Fed Induction Motor Drive With Fault-Tolerant Capability Under Open- and Short-Circuit Switch Failures
Masoud Farhadi, Majid Tahmasbi Fard, Mehdi Abapour +1
In this paper, a new fault tolerant dc-ac converter-fed induction motor drive is proposed to maintain motor as close as possible to its desired normal operation under open- and sho…
Three Switch Three Phase Inverter With Improved DC Voltage Utilization
Masoud Farhadi, Mehdi Abapour
This paper proposes a new DC-AC converter with a less number of semiconductor switches and therefore gate drive and control circuit components. A salient feature of this inverter i…
