Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to present the application of a dynamic braking circuit to wound rotor induction machine (WRIM) drives. It can be used as a reconfigured topology for a doubly-fed induction machine when the fault occurs in the grid-side converter (GSC). In combination with a PWM voltage source converter (VSC), it also provides a simple low cost drive for a WRIM. MATLAB/SIMULINK program is used to simulate the system. The simulation and experimental results show that this topology can be an alternative topology for the WRIM drives. The advantages and drawbacks of this topology are then discussed.
