AC Drive System with Multiphase Induction Motor for High Power Mining Haul Trucks

Article Preview

Abstract:

Electric mining haul trucks are one of the most challenging applications of power electronics in automotive systems. This paper presents some advances of AC drive system with multiphase induction motor in high power mining haul trucks used in the special operation and environment. It is established that the use of inverter-fed dual three-phase (DTP) induction motors with vector control is the preferred solution to reach the required high starting torque, widely variable-speed range and good dynamic performance required by these vehicles. Key technologies and design features for the drive systems under extreme operating conditions are discussed.
