System and method for providing inrush current limiting for induction motor starting

A system for providing inrush current limiting for induction motor starting. The system utilizes a pre-start controller to initialize operation of a controller including multiple switches for controlling the voltage delivered to a motor having multiple phases. The pre-start controller activates each switch and determines whether a phase current flowing through the switches satisfies a threshold current. The switches are deactivated a phase current satisfies the threshold current. The pre-start controller determines an activation order for each phase and orders phases having higher phase currents higher in the order than lower phase currents, and determines an activation timing. Based on whether the highest phase current is positive or negative, the pre-start controller then activates, using a voltage at a corresponding angle and based on the activation order and activation timing, the phases to de-saturate the flux generated by the phase currents, thereby limiting an inrush current provided to the motor.

System and method for reducing delay in the modulation of a multi-phase output volltage from an inverter

A power converter is configured to measure an output current and to determine a multiphase voltage reference as a function of the output current. Within the same switching period the voltage reference is determined, a modulation routine determines a modulation index for each phase of the output voltage. In some instances, one or more phases must start modulation during the switching period before the new modulation index is determined. The modulation routine stores the value of the modulation index generated from the prior switching period and uses the stored value when a new value is not yet ready. An offset value for the phase voltage which used a modulation index from the prior switching period is determined in order to compensate the phase voltages of the other phases and to maintain a desired line-to-line voltage output from the power converter.
