WEEK 12: INVERTER CALCULATION


Objectives: 
  • To prove an inverter performance.
  • To analyse the right output inverter circuit.
  • To Check a misconduct (mistake) while doing early inverter circuit.
Content / Procedure: 
  • Make a research about inverter calculation.
  • Make an analysis for basic inverter circuit
  • Consider any losses during inverter operation.
  • Try to collect information about inverter circuit before started calculating.
Result and Analysis:
  • The power output rating of the inverter chosen (in VA or n Watts is directly dependant on the load that will be powering.
  • It is absolutely critical that a selection of inverter which is powerful enough to operate my specific loads.
  • The first step is to calculate the total Watts or Amps of all appliances that plan to power.
  • The second step is to determine the characteristic of my load. AC loads generally fall into two categories: Electronic loads and motors.
1. Fly Back Inverter Topology:
Input Current Motor = (Assumed Motor Efficiency/100) x Max. Current Alternator.
                           = (50 / 100) x 40
                           = 20 A (Max. current that can be produced by alternator)

Input Power Motor = Input Current From Motor x Input Voltage From Motor
                          = 20 A x 12 V
                          = 240 W

2. Output Current From Inverter:
Output Current = Desired Power / Desired DC Voltage
                    = 1000 W / 240 V
                    = 4.17 A

3. I Peak (in)
I peak = I in / Duty Cycle
         = 20 / 0.53
         = 37.7 A

4. I Peak (out)
I Peak = I out / Duty Cycle
          = 4.17 / 0.53
          = 7.87 A

5. System Efficiency 
Inverter Efficiency = (Pout/Pin) x 100
                         = (240 / 1000) x 100
                         = 24% ; 100% - 24% = 76%

Conclusions
  • The result for inverter in theory are been analysed.
  • The result got will be a reference to my inverter circuit performance in reality.
  • It involve a relatively high current, so the precaution safety must be done.
