Q4: Fig. 5.1 shows a 3-phase, 440V, 6-pole, 60Hz, Star-connected induction motor with the 7321
parameters : 𝑅𝑠 = 0.2 Ω , 𝑅𝑟′ = 0.3 Ω, 𝑋𝑠 = 0.5 Ω, 𝑋𝑟′ = 1 Ω. The motor is fed from a PWM
voltage source inverter with a constant V/f ratio from 0 to rated frequency and with
constant voltage of 440V above the rated frequency. The PWM generator block produces
the six pulses required for the inverter switches by comparing a 5kHz triangular carrier
signal with sinusoidal modulating signals.
