Driving an Induction Motor With a Computer Controlled Power Inverter Interfaced By a Circuit

Fuel economy and the reduction of the use of fossil fuels is the topic for many researches in our scientific community. Its importance is one of the main concerns of the American economy as we know it. A proposal to improve this situation is to improve the interactions between IC engines and electric motors and having a better control over the electrical side of Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV). In this project the approach to this dilemma is to make an interface (a circuit) between a computer and a power inverter so that the computer can provide a better control of the power inverter while also monitoring its interaction with an induction motor. The effect will be more efficiency in the electrical components of the HEV, thus bringing a better fuel economy for the consumer and a reduction of the use of fossil fuels.
