Definitions
- FC frequency converters
- the voltage impulse is by nature an impulse wave, which when reflected at the motor winding terminals can lead even to doubling of the voltage between phases and to ground due to the often several times higher characteristic impedance of the winding compared to that of the cable between the FC and the motor
- the usual winding type is a so called random winding, characterized by round copper wire and that the turns in the coils are located randomly
- the coil voltage becomes decisive the voltage difference between the first and last turn of a coil, or correspondingly the coil pair voltage
- the load of an FC may also be comprised of some other electrical apparatus than a motor, for example a transformer, but the problems remain With the new FC types on the market, the turn voltage and especially the coil voltage and coil pair voltage have in some drive cases grown too high for the conventional windings and insulations, sometimes causing winding failures.
- Technical solutions to reduce the steepness of the voltage impulses have been presented, e.g. using chokes or filters, but these solutions have either been too complicated or they have had a negative influence on the properties of the FC, e g. its efficiency.
- the only remaining possibility has often been to enhance the insulation of the windings, which in turn leads to, e.g , special motor constructions and a considerable increase in costs.
- the invention presented herein is characterized by the fact that the rise time of the voltage impulse, arriving at the winding of the electrical apparatus constituting the load of the FC, can be lengthened such that the critical voltage stresses mentioned can be kept below the limits allowed for the conventional windings.
- a specially advantageous characteristic of the invention is the fact that the efficiency of the FC remains high, and extra losses are not created.
- the central idea with this invention is the realization that if the FC voltage impulse is forced to arrive at the winding of the electric apparatus stepwise, keeping, however, the maximum voltage at the earlier value at the most, the average rate of rise of the voltage will be slower and the total rise time of the impulse longer.
- This stepwise arrival of the impulse is carried out in one embodiment of the invention by dividing the cable or any other conductor between the FC and the electric apparatus into two or more successive parts, characterized by different wave impedances
- this will be achieved by dividing the cable or any other conductor into two or more parallel cables over a part of its length.
- Another way, characteristic of the invention, of changing the wave impedance of the cable or any other conductor is to change the dielectric constant of its insulation (as is known, the wave impedance of the cable is almost inversely proportional to the square root of the dielectric constant, see the equations presented below)
- the third characteristic way of changing the wave impedance is to change the inductance of the cable or other conductor per length unit, e g by varying the outer diameter of the conductor
- the invention is further characterized in that the parallel cables or any other conductors can show different propagation times for the impulses, in detailed embodiments of the invention this can be done by using parallel cables of different lengths, or the propagation velocity of the impulse wave is different in the parallel cables
- one embodiment of the invention is characterized by making the longer cable(s) essentially smaller in cross-section, enabling e g the longer cables to be bent on the same cable tray on which the mam cable is situated
- Fig A presents first the conventional cable arrangement between FC (1) and motor (2)
- Fig B describes how a voltage impulse (4) from FC (1 ) is propagating along the cable (3) (the propagating velocity is generally known to be in the order of 100 - 150 m/ ⁇ s) and is reflected at the terminals (2) of the motor winding to even double value (5), if the wave impedance of the motor is large in comparison to the cable wave impedance (this will happen, if the motor is a fairly low power motor, and the cable length exceeds the so called critical cable length - this is half the distance the impulse propagates during a time equal to the rise time)
- the rate of rise increases, proportional to the voltage reflection
- Fig C presents a cable arrangement according to the invention
- a voltage impulse (voltage u, rise time e g 200 ns) propagating along a single cable (6) first meets the junction where the cable divides into parallel branches (two in this example)
- the impulse propagates along the both branches (7) and (8) toward the motor, with an amplitude 2/3 u, rise time unchanged 200 ns
- the impulse propagating along the shorter cable (7) first meets the junction of the motor winding and the second cable (8)
- the reflection occurring here is not significant, assuming that the motor (2) wave impedance is great as in Fig B
- a wave with an amplitude of 2/3 u and rise time 200 ns begins to propagate into the motor winding
