The conventional DTC is a powerful tool to ensure robustness and good torque dynamics. However, the variable switching frequency as well as the presence of torque and flux ripples due to the use of hysteresis controllers are the major drawbacks of this strategy. For this purpose, the control by space vector Modulation (SVM) is developed to improve DTC performance, by replacing hysterisis controllers by PI controllers to reduce electromagnetic flux ripple and torque ripple in order to minimize mechanical vibration and acoustic noise while maintaining the benefits of DTC control. The proposed control algorithm is simulated and tested in MATLAB/Simulink. A comparative analysis between this technique and conventional DTC is carried out, highlighting the efficiency of the proposed improvement approach. The performance indexes and comparative results show the effectiveness of the proposed control in reducing torque ripple and stator and rotor flux ripple by up to 43%, 42% and 31%, respectively, resulting in Total Harmonic Distortion (THD%) 61% lower, in addition the switching frequency is controlled, and the Rejection Time is improved by more than 76%.

Introduction (FOC) algorithm in the 1972s has revived the applications of high-performance variable speed Over the past few decades, drive systems have drives [6]. FOC provides decoupling between torque been used regularly in a number of applications, such and machine flux and makes the DFIM like a DC as marine propulsion, rail traction, pumping and machine [7]. This decoupling gives fast torque electric vehicles [1], as well as in hydroelectric and response, a wide speed control range and high wind power conversion systems [2]. Among these efficiency over a wide load variation range. But this drives, the Doubly Fed Induction Machine (DFIM) control presents a high sensitivity to the parametric presents great robustness, high efficiency, reliability variations of the machine and a great complexity and longevity. Increasing interest is being given to caused by the presence of coordinate transformations DFIM [3]. and the use of several control variables [8]. In Despite its advantages, yet DFIM is still opposition to FOC, Direct Torque Control (DTC) is complicated and difficult to control particularly when known by its simple decoupled scheme which allows good performance is required in various operating controlling the electromagnetic flux and torque. DTC conditions [4]. This is because DFIM is a non-linear offers advantages such as fast response and less system, multivariable, time-varying and subject to dependence on machine parameters. In addition, it perturbations. In addition, some of its state variables, does not require any transformation of coordinates or like flux are not measurable [5]. These constraints current regulator loops [5].

It is based on the direct this purpose, the DTC-SVM control strategy (without application of a control sequence to the switches of the use of hysteresis controllers) is recommended, in the voltage inverter placed before the induction order to obtain a selection table allowing the best machine {Formatting Citation}. The choice of this choice of the voltage vector sequence to be applied to sequence is based on the use of a switching table and the motor, while respecting the constraints on flux hysteresis controllers which have the role of and electromagnetic torque [15]. This allows us to controlling and regulating the electromagnetic torque directly control the torque without using hysteresis and flux of the machine. However, this technique controllers and therefore a significant reduction in the causes [5]: ripple of the control quantities as well as a control of • Undesirable flux and torque ripples. the switching frequency.

This article is divided into six major sections as In recent years, research has been conducted to follows: Section 2 presents a brief modeling of the overcome the drawbacks previously mentioned [1, doubly fed induction machine. Section 3 is devoted 11-13]. In [11], A DTC improved by the sliding mode to the study of the direct torque control of the DFIM command is studied. This technique provides a good and the explanation of the principle of flux control, improvement and guarantees robustness against electromagnetic torque and the general structure with external disturbances and parametric variations of the two switch tables.

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.

    ISSN: 2455-2631 © July 2018 IJSDR | Volume 3, Issue 7 COMPARATIVE STUDY OF FIELD ORIENTED CONTROL AND DIRECT TORQUE CONTROL OF INDUCTION MOTOR 1Milan Singh Tekam2 Dr. A. K. Sharma 1,2Department of electrical engineering, Jabalpur engineering college Abstract: Now-a-days induction motor is the main work-horse of the industries. So controlling of performance of induction motor is most precisely required in many high performance applications. Scalar control method gives good steady state response but poor dynamic response. While vector control method gives good steady state as well as dynamic response. But it is complicated in structure so to overcome this difficulty, direct torque control introduced. This paper discusses the comparative study of field oriented control (FOC) and direct torque control (DTC) methods of induction motor according to their working principle, structure complexity, performance, merits and demerits. Keywords: Vector Control, Induction Motor, Direct Torque Control, Field Oriented Control, Decoupling, Separately Excited Dc Motor. I. INTRODUCTION In 1891 at the Frankfurt exhibition, Nikola Tesla first presented a polyphase induction motor. Since then great improvements have been made in the design and performance of the induction motors and numerous types of polyphase and single-phase induction motors have been developed. Due to its simple, rugged and inexpensive construction and excellent operating characteristics induction motor has become very popular in industrial applications. As a rough estimate nearly 90 percent of the world’s AC motors are polyphase induction motors. AC induction motor is the most common motor used in industries and mains powered home appliances.

The determination of the accurate duty ratio is the key to obtain the desired error compensational results for PMSM, which is related to the performance of the servo system directly. As the applied master vector and slave vector during each control period are the adjacent vectors, therefore, the direction of the synthetic vector is between the directions of the two applied active vectors. Additionally, the analytical relationship between the sector angle of the synthetic vector and the error rate, which can realize the determination of the discrete duty ratio value without complicated calculations is deduced first. Furthermore, the duty ratio values of the two applied active vectors in FS-DTC are obtained through the selections of the duty ratio scale in the novel discrete duty ratio determination method directly, which can simplify the calculation process of the accurate duty ratio values effectively.

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.

So, motor control systems with a very good performance to a large extent result in optimum performance of the automation of production that this work is associated with increased production and quality of products. In fact, the performance of modern automation systems, which in terms of speed, accuracy, flexibility and performance are defined, mainly related to control strategies. Recent developments in the power electronics industry has led to a significant increase of power that can exchanged by semiconductor equipment. Despite this, most voltage supported by this equipment is a major obstacle in the applications of medium & high Voltage. Multilevel converters have been introduced for such applications. These inverters have less harmonic distortion compared with standard two-level inverters when they are working a switching frequency. Permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) newly developed with high energy permanent magnet materials if properly controlled can provide fast dynamic and performance with high efficiency and compatibility are very good in various applications.
