Abstract
Briefly, a voltage doubling variable frequency drive includes an active converter connected to a DC bus that is connected to a first inverter that converts DC power to variable frequency, three-phase AC power, and variable frequency, three-phase AC power to DC power, and to a second inverter that converts DC power to three-phase AC sine wave power. The converter converts single-phase AC power to DC power and DC power to single-phase AC power and maintains a selected voltage on the DC bus. The converter has an active rectifier and a controller that drives the rectifier with a pulse width modulation according to a switching scheme that switches the rectifier according to an adaptive hysteresis control to maintain constant switching.
