چکیده
ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT ARTICLE HISTORY: Received 23 October 2013 Revised 11 December 2013 Accepted 20 December 2013 Pulse-width modulated (PWM) adjustable frequency drives (AFDs) are extensively used in industries for control of induction motors. It has led to significant advantages in terms of the performance, size, and efficiency but the output voltage waveform no longer remains sinusoidal. Hence, overshoots, high rate of rise, harmonics and transients are observed in the voltage wave. They increase voltage and thermal stresses; resulting into accelerated insulation aging. This paper presents the application of fuzzy logic to life estimation of PWM driven induction motors. Insulation stress parameters are experimentally computed for wide range of switching frequency and used in fuzzy logic based life estimation algorithms. The results obtained with the fuzzy expert system show a performance approaching attainable for the life model based on the inverse power law.

متن کاملA FUZZY-BASED SPEED CONTROLLER FOR IMPROVEMENT OF INDUCTION MOTOR'S DRIVE PERFORMANCE
Induction motors (IMs) are widely used in many industrial applications due to their robustness, low cost, simplicity and relative good efficiency. One of the major considerations for IMs is their speed control. PI (proportional-integrator) controllers are usually used as speed controller. Adjusting the gain of PI controller is time-consuming which needs thorough considerations. Hence, fuzzy con...

متن کاملImprovement of PWM Rectifier Performances Using Direct Power Control and Fuzzy Logic Theory
The study made in this paper concerns the use of the direct power control (DPC) technique and the fuzzy logic theory to control a pulse width modulation (PWM) rectifier. These strategies are used to eliminate harmonics currents and consequently to reduce total harmonic distortion (THD) of the line current and improve the power factor. The DPC principle is based on the control of instantaneous a...

In this paper, direct power control (DPC) of three-phase PWM rectifiers based on fuzzy logic controller is presented, without line voltage sensors. The control technique is built upon the ideas of the well known direct torque control (DTC) for induction motors. The instantaneous active and reactive powers, directly controlled by selecting the optimum state of the converter, are used as the PWM ...
