Inverter Efficiency

In the database [Drives] database table, there are two efficiency fields for the Inverter - [Eff_Inv] & [Eff_Frml_Inv].

  1. [Eff_Inv]
    • Required value
    • Used for backwards compatibility and as a backup if the efficiency formula fails
  2. [Eff_Frml_Inv]
    • Inverter Efficiency Formula was added in the v4.7 database [Drives] table in field [Eff_Frml_Inv]
    • An optional field, when a valid formula is provided, [Eff_Frml_Inv] overrides the [Eff_Inv] value
    • Allows for the more accurate modelling of the Inverter Efficiency as a function
      • Output frequency [fHz]
      • Output current [Iph]
      • Nominal DC Bus Voltage [Vz0]
      • Rated max current [Imax]
      • Rated cont current [Icont]
Efficiency Formula Variables, Conditions, Functions, etc.
