| Abstract |
A three-level power converter system using module type IGBTs (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors) for Shinkansen trains WdS developed. It can achieve lower acoustic noise from transformers and motors and smaller line current harmonics, because the converter offer fuster switching operation and three-level output voltage. In addition, a simple power unit is also achieved, because of the module type IGBTs. The system has been installed in the STAR21 testing train for Shinkansen routes of East Japan Railway Company and its usefulness was evaluated. The superiority of the three-level power converter system using IGBTs to the conventional one is verified by testing results. |
