Braking resistor for IM drive ( regenerative power)
Hello and good day
I am facing big issue in the Induction motor drive system. I am using IM drive system with three phase inverter and three phase 2hp induction motor with Dspace 1104 .I am running the motor at rated speed 1400 rpm with 540vdc coming from rectifier . I am using 4 capacitor as filter circuit. My problem when i reverse the motor speed ,my IGBT always shorten ,I suspect the regenerative power coming from the motor,so i installed 8 resistor with 2.1K 5 watt to absorb the regenerative power,however this effects the drive system in the motoring mode it broke the igbt at 400 vdc .So i dont know what resistor value i should select and what wattage in order to prevent the regenrative power and doest affects the drive in the motoring mode.
please advice me in selecting the right braking resistor for my drive .this delaying my graduation for master degree (two years already).
