Trade-Off Investigations and Detailed Design of Power Inverters.

Abstract

An investigation to determine the optimum design for a modular family of power inverters has been completed. The inverters are to provide 60 Hz or 400 Hz (selectable) sine wave outputs at 120V/240V, single phase/3-phase when supplied from a 30-60 Vdc source. Included in the family are inverters of from 1.5 to 10 kW. Optimization is done with regard to cost, size, weight, efficiency, reliability, availability and maintainability. Various options were examined during Phase I. Phase II: detailed study.
