Details on Subject
.
AC and DC drives have become an increasingly
important part of the modern control system. They are found in a wide
variety of applications from speed control/positioning control to motor
generator excitation control, to starting systems. They
are found in wide ranging industries from Petrochemical, Pulp and Paper,
Marine, power Generation, steel, and Mining. In this presentation an
attempt to demystify this increasingly important technology shall be made.
This presentation shall cover the types of drives available, capabilities,
applications and requirements, pitfalls and issues with their application,
and how they are interfaced and controlled.
