Welcome to the Inverter Drive Simulator repository! This is a desktop application written in the C programming language that simulates an electrical inverter drive. Whether you are a student, engineer, or hobbyist, this tool can help you understand the complexities of electrical circuits and induction motors.
Inverter drives are crucial in controlling the speed and torque of induction motors. They convert DC power to AC power, allowing for variable frequency operation. This simulator provides a user-friendly interface to visualize and interact with the operation of an inverter drive.
The simulator is designed for educational purposes and aims to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. It allows users to simulate various scenarios and observe the effects on motor performance.
- User-Friendly Interface: Navigate through the application with ease.
- Real-Time Simulation: Experience dynamic changes as you modify parameters.
- Graphical Output: Visualize waveforms and motor characteristics.
- Customizable Settings: Adjust frequency, voltage, and load conditions.
- Educational Tool: Ideal for students and professionals in electrical engineering.
