How Inverters Work - Working principle rectifier

How inverters work. In this video we take a look at how an inverter works to convert direct current (DC) into Alternating current (AC). Inverters are used increasingly throughout industry as well as building services HVAC systems to achieve precise control of AC induction motors connected to AHU fans, compressors pumps etc. Inverters are also used within photovoltaic arrays to provide AC power for use in homes and buildings. In this video we start at the basics to understand the difference between AC and DC power and then look at a simplified example before moving onto an advanced pulse width modulation (PWM) example to see how the load experiences and AC supply from a DC source by converting the direct current into a sine wave.

    Good to see you have the electrons flowing in the correct direction. People please keep in mind that if the diagram simulator was showing conventional current, the diagram simulator (not reality) would be flowing in the opposite direction. In reality electrons flow out of the negative source when power is being used. This is important because the direction of electrons over a resistive load determines the positive and negative voltage potential differences induced on the terminals of the resistive load.

    Nice video A couple of minor things. It's important that one set of switches open before the others close. If closed before open (as narrated) then a short circuit will result and the IGBTs will disintentegrate. It's called shoot-through. In the 3 phase animation, the active Mosfets should swap to the other pair for the negative half cycle. :-)

    An Important point that I would like to mention is that the identifying attribute of a DC is that it flows in one direction but, it is not always at it's peak. For learning purposes, ommiting the fact that DC can fluctuate at specific frequencies and transmit data signals is convenient as to not confuse new learners. Although, to say that DC is always at it's maximum is simply not correct as a definition. Great content btw! Glad you are able to make such excellent educational videos.

    I love your videos and how you explain things! Thank you for this series! Could you make a video that explains how basic household appliances work? Things like a microwave, refrigerator, coffee machine, electric fan, or HVAC? I know it's basically converting electric energy into the specific kind of energy an appliance uses to do its job, but how does that conversion happen? You explained light bulbs (lamps) as an example, and that's just electric current running through a wire of a specific material that produces light energy at a certain temperature. EDIT: Just finished the video. That's amazinggggggggg why don't we learn about this stuff in school???

So what you are saying is that the circuits gates are allowing negative and positive current through their gates from the battery in alternating pattern simulating AC current, therefore becoming AC current since they are coming from two different circular paths of directions.

    My dad was an engineer and I've been really curious about how our solar panels work and he mentioned an inverter converting the voltage from the panels which I think was about 12 and comes out 220 to make our television work. He couldn't explain how inverters exactly does it so I've been searching for it. Since I dont study engineering (im still at highschool) I cant fully understand this but it gives me the idea how it really works maybe I should start learning the very basics before this
