Novel Multilevel Converter for Variable-Speed Medium Voltage Switched Reluctance Motor Drives

A novel multilevel converter that is especially suited for high speed multi-megawatt switched reluctance motor drives operating at the medium voltage level is presented. The drive is capable of variable speed, four-quadrant operation. Each phase leg of the converter contains an arbitrary number of c...
