Notes:
The paper outlines the operating principles of a 3 -phase to single -phase cycloinverter, as used in heating and melting applications, and presents a digital computer model on which performance predictions may be based. Ideal power switches, an input filter and a compensated heating load are assumed in formulating an initial set of state -variable equations which are valid when all the switching devices are conducting. Connection matrix techniques are then used to generate the mesh equations relevant to the continually changing pattern of the switching devices, leading to a very versatile simulation program. Experimental results from a laboratory -scale unit are presented for different output power levels, and these are compared with corresponding computed results to illustrate the close similarity that exists.
