A new offline current modulation using a neuro-fuzzy compensation scheme for torque-ripple reduction in switched reluctance motors is presented. The main advantage of the proposed technique is that the torque signal is unnecessary. The compensating signal is learned prior to normal operation in a self-commissioning run, capturing the necessary current shape to reduce the torque ripple. Simulati...

The paper presents a super-twisting sliding mode (STSM) regulator with neural networks (NN) of direct power command (DPC) for controlling the active/reactive power of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) using a two-level space vector pulse width modulation (2L-SVPWM). Traditional DPC strategy with proportional-integral (PI) controllers (DPC-PI) has significantly more active/reactive power r...

In Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Generators (PMSGs) the reduction of cogging torque is one of the most important problems in their performance and evaluation. In this paper, at first, a direct-drive vertical-axis wind turbine is chosen. According to its nominal value operational point, necessary parameters for the generator is extracted. Due to an analytical method, four generators with differen...

Simple power electronic drive circuit and fault tolerance of converter are specific advantages of SRM drives, but excessive torque ripple has limited its application. This paper presents a novel method of controlling the motor currents to minimize the torque ripple, using a neuro-fuzzy compensator. In the proposed control concept, a compensating signal is added to the output of a classical PI c...

The paper discusses the design of current waveforms for switched-reluctance motors, which give rise to a constant (ripple-free) torque. The waveforms are optimised by computer search techniques, to give the lowest RMS current per phase consistent with producing smooth torque. Furthermore. the waveforms are constrained to be within the converter’s VA rating. Current waveforms and the associated ...

In the conventional DTC, the selected voltage vector is applied for the whole switching period regardless of the magnitude of the torque error. This can result in high torque ripple. A better drive performance can be achieved by varying the duty ratio of the selected voltage vector during each switching period according to the magnitude of the torque error and position of the stator flux. A dut...

In this paper, four-switch inverter fed direct torque control three phase Induction Motor drive is presented. A triangular wave is used as dither signal of minute amplitude (for torque hysteresis band and flux hysteresis band respectively) in the error block. This method minimizes flux and torque ripple in a Four-Switch inverter fed induction motor drive while the dynamic performance is not aff...

Induction machine drive based on Direct Torque Control (DTC) allows high dynamic performance with very simple hysteresis control scheme. Conventional Direct Torque Control (CDTC) suffers from some drawbacks such as high torque ripple and variable switching frequency , difficulties in torque as well as flux control at very low speed. This paper is aimed to analyze DTC principles, the strategies ...
