What would you do these days for the boost converter? Looks like Nick's page you reference was taken down. Any pointers toward an appropriate solution would be great.asahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03669408466655776033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-910685024071367839.post-18323731051513936622016-10-10T02:29:07.765-04:002016-10-10T02:29:07.765-04:00The absorber is a brushless 3-phase motor.

It is powered from a 48 V DC server power supply, which is powered from mains, and controlled by a custom 3-phase controller (detailed in the previous dyno blog post). When the dyno is running, the test motor draws power from the 48 volt supply, and the absorber regens back into the 48 volt supply.Ben Katzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15816221191617788028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-910685024071367839.post-91501153888894053592016-10-10T02:24:09.963-04:002016-10-10T02:24:09.963-04:00Thanks for the detail as always.

I was under the impression that driving anything 3-phase off of single-phase would incur a significant power penalty, e.g. a 3-phase mill motor vmc off of single 120v. Did this come into play here, or was it not an issue because your Vmotor is just about <3x Vmain?Caanonnoreply@blogger.com
