  • Evaluation of Direct Torque Control with a Constant-Frequency Torque Regulator Under Various Discrete Interleaving Carriers
    electronics Article Evaluation of Direct Torque Control with a Constant-Frequency Torque Regulator under Various Discrete Interleaving Carriers Ibrahim Mohd Alsofyani and Kyo-Beum Lee * Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Ajou University, 206, World cup-ro, Yeongtong-gu Suwon 16499, Korea * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-31-219-2376 Received: 25 June 2019; Accepted: 20 July 2019; Published: 23 July 2019 Abstract: Constant-frequency torque regulator–based direct torque control (CFTR-DTC) provides an attractive and powerful control strategy for induction and permanent-magnet motors. However, this scheme has two major issues: A sector-flux droop at low speed and poor torque dynamic performance. To improve the performance of this control method, interleaving triangular carriers are used to replace the single carrier in the CFTR controller to increase the duty voltage cycles and reduce the flux droop. However, this method causes an increase in the motor torque ripple. Hence, in this work, different discrete steps when generating the interleaving carriers in CFTR-DTC of an induction machine are compared. The comparison involves the investigation of the torque dynamic performance and torque and stator flux ripples. The effectiveness of the proposed CFTR-DTC with various discrete interleaving-carriers is validated through simulation and experimental results. Keywords: constant-frequency torque regulator; direct torque control; flux regulation; induction motor; interleaving carriers; low-speed operation 1. Introduction There are two well-established control strategies for high-performance motor drives: Field orientation control (FOC) and direct torque control (DTC) [1–3]. The FOC method has received wide acceptance in industry [4]. Nevertheless, it is complex because of the requirement for two proportional-integral (PI) regulators, space-vector modulation (SVM), and frame transformation, which also needs the installation of a high-resolution speed encoder.

  • Abstract Controlling Ac Motor Using Arduino
    ABSTRACT CONTROLLING AC MOTOR USING ARDUINO MICROCONTROLLER Nithesh Reddy Nannuri, M.S. Department of Electrical Engineering Northern Illinois University, 2014 Donald S Zinger, Director Space vector modulation (SVM) is a technique used for generating alternating current waveforms to control pulse width modulation signals (PWM). It provides better results of PWM signals compared to other techniques. CORDIC algorithm calculates hyperbolic and trigonometric functions of sine, cosine, magnitude and phase using bit shift, addition and multiplication operations. This thesis implements SVM with Arduino microcontroller using CORDIC algorithm. This algorithm is used to calculate the PWM timing signals which are used to control the motor. Comparison of the time taken to calculate sinusoidal signal using Arduino and CORDIC algorithm was also done.

These include two different barrel-projectile interface coatings: a solid graphite coating and a liquid eutectic indium-gallium alloy coating. These coatings are characterized and their usability in a railgun application is evaluated. A new type of projectile, in which the electrical conductivity varies as a function of position in order to condition current flow, is proposed and simulated with FEA software. The graphite coating was found to measurably reduce the forces of friction inside the bore but was so thin that it did not improve contact. The added contact resistance of the graphite was measured and gauged to not be problematic on larger scale railguns. The liquid metal was found to greatly improve contact and not introduce extra resistance but its hazardous nature and tremendous cost detracted from its usability.

  • Soft Starting of Three Phase Induction Motor
    © 2017 IJRTI | Volume 2, Issue 5 | ISSN: 2456-3315 SOFT STARTING OF THREE PHASE INDUCTION MOTOR 1Mr. Satpute Akshaykumar, 2Mr. Tambe Sagar, 3Mr. Shinde Vijay, 4Prof. Mone P.P. Department of Electrical Engineering SVPM’s College of Engineering Malegaon (Bk), Tal-Baramati, Dist-Pune, Savitribai Phule Pune University. Abstract— This paper, present a soft starting of induction motor. At the time of starting three phase induction motor takes very large current and have low power factor. Due to high current, motor torque content ripples and transients. Due to transients and torque pulsation shaft of motor experiences jerk hence mechanical life of rotor reduces. In order to mitigate this adverse effect if starting current and torque pulsation in induction motor, a popular method is used which is electronically controlled soft starting of induction motor. Normally soft starters are used for avoiding this problems and soft start is achieved by increasing stator frequency. By using soft starter performance of induction motor is improved and also improved load torque characteristics. Keywords— Three phase induction motor, microcontroller, and PWM inverter. I. INTRODUCTION The ac motor starters employing power semiconductors are being increasingly used to replace electromagnetic line starters and conventional reduced-voltage starters because of their controlled soft-starting capability with limited starting current. Thyristor-based soft starters are cheap, simple, reliable, and occupy less volume, and therefore, their use is a viable solution to the induction motor (IM) starting problem. Depending on the initial switching instants of all the three phases to the supply, an IM may produce severe pulsations on the electromechanical torque, regardless of whether it is controlled by a direct-online starter or a soft starter .

The current-to-torque and frequency-to-speed relationships of BLDC motors are linear. BLDC motors may be described as stepper motors, with fixed permanent magnets and possibly more poles on the rotor than the stator, or reluctance motors. The latter may be without permanent magnets, just poles that are induced on the rotor then pulled into alignment by timed stator windings. However, the term stepper motor tends to be used for motors that are designed specifically to be operated in a mode where they are frequently stopped with the rotor in a defined angular position; this page describes more general BLDC motor principles, though there is overlap.
