Abstract:
A method is described that generates synchronous optimal pulse patterns for inverter control in real time. A smart technique, which predicts the current trajectory, closes the current loop with implicit generation of optimized pulse patterns while eliminating all subharmonic components. The algorithm requires very little computational effort, which makes it applicable for low power systems operating at high switching frequency. - 193.B. Krüger, S. Kratz, T. Theopold and S.

Abstract:
Mechanical transformation of speed is needed in a lot of industrial applications but it is attended by backlash. Gear parts without closed linkage can accelerate and crash to another. So with the backlash comes the wear. There are many technical solutions and ideas to reduce the backlash by mechanical and electrical components and adaptions, but in most cases with the goal to increase the precision. In some applications, like the described pitch drive, the precision is not the problem and the increasing costs for backlash elimination are not to justified because the reduction of wear is more important. Further the extensive adaption has influence on functional safety and maintenance. This paper gives a short overview of mechanisms that reduce the wear in a given application without mechanical adaptions, only by adding a software module. In the first step backlash is detected and in dependence on its reason in a second step a reaction is induced by the drive to spare the mechanics. - 192.S. Kratz, P. Hanses, B. Krüger, R.

Abstract:
This paper presents the starting situation and some interim results of a research project with the aim of a fully electrified short-range public transportation in a German town called Solingen. It gives an insight to the existing trolleybus infrastructure and the benefits of second life battery usage. Following, the design configuration of a refurbished trolleybus battery system for stationary usage in substations is shown and evaluated. Based on this a new silicone carbide power electronic for a direct integration of stationary battery systems are proposed and evaluated. Available semiconductors for the prototype are specified and compared by measurements. The results show that the integration of trolleybus batteries can be done with high system efficiency. - 191.S.

Abstract:
This paper gives an insight to a research project with the aim of a fully electrified short-range public transportation in a German town called Solingen. It starts with an overview of the special characteristics of the existing fully isolated overhead contact system and then derives the projected system. A new silicone carbide power electronic and the necessary control algorithms for the direct integration of photovoltaic arrays are proposed and evaluated. The measurement of a first small volume 10kW prototype inverter shows that the integration can be done with high efficiency. - 190.A. Uphues, K. Nötzold, R. Wegener and S.

Abstract:
Due to the increased renewable power penetration level renewable power plants have to provide low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) capability with simultaneous dynamic voltage support, to ensure the grid stability during grid faults. Concerning doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind energy conversion systems (WECS) large transient electromotive forces (EMF) and rotor currents, which may damage the rotor-side converter (RSC), or adversely affect the controllability of the DFIG are induced into the rotor circuit in case of voltage dips. To limit the rotor currents and to accelerate the transient flux component's or transient electromotive force's damping respectively, a virtual resistance demagnetization approach based on the standard dq-control in the synchronous reference frame is discussed. The theoretical results are compared with those of more demanding virtual inductance and virtual impedance approaches. Additionally, to increase the IGBT's current conductivity, a reduction of switching losses due to a simple pulse pattern optimization is provided. The LVRT-capability is verified with measurement results, recorded during a certification campaign at a 2.1 MW WECS in India, concerning the Indian grid code. - 189.A. Uphues, K. Nötzold, R.

Abstract:
This paper presents a comparison between a continuous time domain approach (CTD) and a discrete time domain approach (DTD) for parameter identification of induction machines P{\textgreater}100 kW fed with a voltage source inverter (VSI). The machine parameters are identified off-line, based on the reference voltage and the measured current at standstill and single-axis excitation by the VSI. The quality of the identified parameters is verified with the comparison of measured and estimated torque for the whole operating range, exclusively the field weakening region. - 187.J.

Abstract:
Synchronous optimal modulation and predictive current control and their preferred applications in drive control systems are described. Operation at low switching frequency is required to minimize harmonic distortion and switching losses, thus increasing the utilization of medium-voltage inverters and drive motors. Maximum fundamental output voltage is achieved by predictive overmodulation. Predictive torque control offers less attractions. - 186.S.
