Because of the low maintenance and robustness induction motors have many applications in the industries. Most of these applications need fast and smart speed control system. This paper introduces a smart speed control system for induction motor using fuzzy logic controller. Induction motor is modeled in synchronous reference frame in terms of dq form. The speed control of induction motor is the...

Abstract: The simultaneous elimination of common-mode voltage and DC-link capacitor voltage imbalance is achieved in a five-level inverter scheme for an induction motor drive throughout its operating range. A dual five-level inverter-fed open-end-winding induction motor structure is used for the proposed drive. Initially, the operating limitations of achieving this dual task for the fivelevel i...

The Direct Torque Control (DTC) strategy is one of the best strategies of speed control of Induction Motor Drive (IMD). This scheme is simple in structure and produces fast and robust response in A.C drive system. How ever, this scheme is encountered with the possible problems of high torque, flux and current ripples. The deviation of electromagnetic torque from its reference value causes vibra...

Several field-oriented induction motor drive methods without rotational transducers have been proposed. These methods have a disadvantage that the rotor resistance variation causes an estimation error of the motor speed. Therefore, simultaneous estimation of the motor speed and the rotor resistance is required. This paper presents a method of estimating simultaneously the motor speed and the ro...

Hardware complexity of a motor drive can be reduced by estimating controls rather than measuring using sensors. In this way the corresponding sensors are eliminated and the system becomes more robust. This article is about speed control of a sensor less induction motor with predictive current controller technique. This particular speed control technique does not require direct measurements of m...

single-phase squirrel cage and three-phase induction electromotors are the most popular electromotors used in industry from long ago. when an induction motor starts with direct connection method, it takes a lot of current from the power supply (several times the nominal current); so, several methods have been devised to start such electromotors. these methods either reduce the voltage of the st...

in conventional direct torque control (dtc), the stator flux is usually kept constant by controlling the x-axis component of the stator voltage in the stator flux reference frame. the torque is then controlled by the y-axis component of stator voltage. in this scenario, the stator current does not exceed its permissible value. however, in the so-called optimal efficiency mode, the induction mot...
