:roll: not trying to be rude but it seems like it's just a use of Scott T transformer which has always been able to provide two single phase circuits. Does anything even mentions Leyton in reference other than himself?
It's already pretty much established that you can not use a passive static converter to produce a three phase power that is actually 120 degrees apart both with the Scott-T or this thing.
1. The Scott-T converts, in either direction, between three phase (120 degree) and two phase (90 degree, quadrature).It is of no use whatever in converting from three phase to single phase, except in that you could choose not use one of the two derived phases. If you do that you have wasted transformer capacity and you have not pulled any power consumed by that single phase
equally from all three of the incoming phase lines.
2. If you try to drive the two phase side of the Scott-T with only single phase, you will certainly not get three phase output. If you try to drive both of the two phase windings from the same phase, you are likely to create an effective short circuit.
3. The goal of the Leyton 3-2 circuit is to take incoming three phase power, either wye or delta, and derive a single phase output that pulls power in a fully balanced way from all three of the input phases (equal and properly phased currents in each of the three line conductors.)
4. Nobody ever said that the Leyton circuit could be reversed to produce three phase from single phase. In fact I explicitly stated that it cannot be used that way.
5. One consequence of the above (4.) is that you can use it to take a standalone three phase generator and connect it in a synchronized fashion with a single phase grid connection. But you cannot do the same with a three phase grid interactive inverter, since there will be no three phase reference voltage for the inverter to synchronize to.
6. It is not a common circuit, and hence Leyton was able to name it himself. The fact that it is seldom used and little referenced (except in a couple of very long threads on this forum) is probably the result of the cost of the three transformers compared to the cost of rewiring a generator to single phase or just accepting an unbalanced single phase output at reduced capacity.
7. If you do not believe the math behind it, you are free to build a model and watch it work. I, for one, am satisfied with the math.
It's already pretty much established that you can not use a passive static converter to produce a three phase power that is actually 120 degrees apart both with the Scott-T or this thing.
8. If you start with two phase, you can use the Scott-T to produce fully balanced, 120 degree phased output. It was originally used that way to deliver three phase power from a two phase service, as well as the reverse. But not from a single phase input. That was never an issue in this thread.
