Abstract :
Details are provided, in the form of a flowchart, to permit the reconstruction of a computer program to predict the transient and steady-state performance of slip energy recovery induction motor (IM) drives. Slip energy recovery IM drives are different from most other drives in that the inverter is generally connected only after the machine has reached a predetermined speed. The initial conditions of the inverter are therefore nonzero and difficult to obtain. Three techniques that can be used to calculate the initial conditions are discussed. Theoretical predictions are supported by practical results
