Identification and Time-Domain Simulation of the Association Inverter–Cable–Asynchronous Machine Using Diffusive Representation

Simulation models allowing the determination of the overvoltages at the motor´s terminals are presented. Since these overvoltages are due to both the fronts and to the reflection phenomenon, the modeling of the machine and cable is achieved at an adequate time scale by using a lossy transmission line approach. The diffusive representation, a recently developed mathematical tool, is used for the simulation in the time domain of the inverter-cable-machine association.
