Principle of Inverter Control

9.

Principle of Inverter Control
Principle of inverter compressor
n=60f/p
n—speed of compressor
f—frequency of power supply
p—poles of compressor motor
(Cannot be changed)
Rotating speed “n” of the compressor will be changed in accordance with “frequency “

10.

Principle of Inverter Control
In air conditioning systems, inverters are largely referred to as devices which convert commercial AC
electricity to AC with adjustable frequency and voltage. Converter which converts AC to DC forms part of such
devices. The rotational speed of compressor can be altered freely by inverter.

Control Section

Principle of Inverter Control
What is PFC
?
Voltage shape of input at A
Voltage shape at point P if there is NO
capacitor
Actual voltage shape at point P if there is capacitor
Actual current shape at point P. There is current only the capacitor is
charging.
The current shape is seriously distorted, which will cause serious damage to the power supply net and make
Power Factor much lower.

14.

Principle of Inverter Control
What is PFC
?
Current Reshaping
(PFC)
Due to the requirement of the load power, a very high current is generated during a very narrow conduction
angle of diode module, so the current in the power supply circuit is pulsed. It not only reduces the power of
supply, but more seriously, when the power supply line capacity is insufficient, or the circuit load is large, it will
cause to AC voltage waveform distortion and generate multiple harmonics, thereby disturbing other electrical
appliances. Therefore, it is necessary to do power factor correction for the inverter.

15.

Principle of Inverter Control
Passive PFC
Voltage
Current
Passive PFC with PF=88%
An inductance (or reactor) is added between the rectifier and the filter capacitor, and the characteristic that the
current on the inductor cannot be abruptly is used to smooth the fluctuation of the capacitor charging strong
pulse and improve the distortion of the current waveform of the power supply.
Shortage: The reactor is in big size with high heat creation when it is work. Also it will pull down the DC voltage
and drag a higher current when the compressor is running.
