| Abstract |
Inverters, with progressive electronic components, such as IGBT using PWM technique, cause
extremely steep and frequent peaks in the output voltage. These peaks impose large stresses on the
winding insulation. In this paper, the multiconductor transmission line and the scatter matrix method
are used for predicting the magnitude of the voltage stress due to the steep fronted inverter output
voltage in the stator windings. Results of the voltage distribution in the form winding and the random
winding are presented. In order to validate the method adopted, the simulated results are compared
with the experimental results. |
