Abstract: | ABSTRACT This paper gives a study of line harmonics generated by three-phase half controlled bridge converters feeding separately excited D.C. motor. Analytical expressions for line current are given and dominant current and voltage harmonics have been computed for a typical system. The study shows that current has predominant low order harmonics, the second harmonic being significantly large as compared to other harmonics. The line voltage, however, has significant higher order harmonic components as well Line current harmonics are dependent on motor operating speed, whereas the voltage distortion factor is nearly independent of speed. On the other hand, percent current harmonics are nearly independent of torque, but the voltage harmonics and voltage distortion factor are dependent on load torque. |
