Vector control techniques have made possible the application of PMSM motors for high performance applications where traditionally only dc drives were applied. The vector control scheme enables the control of the PMSM in the same way as a separately excited DC motor operated with a current-regulated armature supply where then the torque is proportional to the product of armature current and the ...

This paper compares the performance of direct torque control of induction motor using two-level and three-level inverters. The main objective of this paper is to improve the performance of direct torque control of induction motor using three-level inverter without affecting its simplicity. The basic switching table based direct torque control of induction motor using two-level inverter is first...

Since torque ripple is the main cause of noise and vibrations, the performance of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) can be improved by minimizing its torque ripple using a novel control technique called Direct Torque Control (DTC). In DTC technique, torque is controlled directly through control of magnitude of the flux and change in speed of the stator flux vector. The flux and torque are maintai...

In the paper a new way of DTC control method analysis to explain flux and current distortion at a low speed of motor operation is discussed. As a result, a new DTC-δ algorithm is proposed. It is important that the DTC-δ algorithm uses the same switching table as the DTC method. The modified DTC algorithms are free from the disadvantages of the conventional DTC method i.e. hexagonal flux and str...

Abstract. The Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) Drives have attracted the attention of many researchers in the recent past because of advantages like simple mechanical structure, adaptability to harsh environments like coal mining etc. But it has one main disadvantage of high torque ripple due to its double saliency structure. The Direct Torque Control (DTC) technique can minimize the torque ripp...

Direct Torque Control of inverter-fed Induction Machine allows high dynamic performance by means of very simple control schemes. In this paper various direct torque control methodologies as conventional DTC (C_DTC), modified DTC (M_DTC) and twelve sectors (12_DTC) have been analysed and compared in order to evaluate the influence of the motor operating condition on steady state performances. A ...

Received Oct 27, 2011 Revised Jan 2, 2012 Accepted Mar 24, 2012 This paper presents a comparative study of field-oriented control(FOC), conventional direct torque control(DTC) and proposed space vector modulated direct torque control with low pass filter(SVM-DTC). The main characteristics of FOC, DTC and proposed SVM-DTC schemes are studied by simulation, emphasizing their advantages and disadv...
