Summary:Now a day's Brushless DC motors are extensively used in adjustable speed drive application due to high power density and ease of control. The torque created by the Brushless DC motors is constant under ideal circumstances. Today especially in the field of automobile industry controlling high-speed vehicles with BLDC Motors is a big task ahead before the researchers. In this paper, an Multi level Inverter topology is proposed with reduced number of switches employing BLDC Drive. The present work focuses on improving the performance of BLDC drive than when applied with conventional inverters and in use multilevel inverters. Later, the known electrical breaking methodologies are applied to the BLDC motor with novel modifications in the proposed MLI topology. Now the simulation studies with this modified MLI topology with different braking mechanisms employing BLDC drive shows better adaptability to the electric locomotives of the present day. The MATLAB SIMULINK simulation results of the corresponding experimentations are presented here with.
