Abstract :
This article presents an EA-based design optimization tool for a three-phase voltage source inverter with diode front-end rectifier used for industrial motor drive power stage considering all major subsystems front-end rectifier, inverter and thermal management system, and EMI filter. Analytical relationships are developed and implemented into three optimizers. Global optimization is achieved by considering the relations between the subsystems. Design examples verified the usefulness and correctness of the design methodology and tool.
