In this paper, an induction motor rotor fault diagnosis system using current signals, which are measured using the axis-transformation method is presented. Inverter-fed motor drives, unlike line-driven motor drives, have stator currents which are rich in harmonics and therefore fault diagnosis using stator current is not trivial. The current signals for rotor fault diagnosis need precise and high resolution information, which means the diagnosis system demands additional hardware such as a low pass filter, high resolution ADC, an encoder and additional hardware. Therefore, the proposed axis-transformation method is expected to contribute to a low cost fault diagnosis system in inverter-fed motor drives without the need for any additional hardware. In order to confirm the validity of the developed algorithms, various experiments for rotor faults are tested and the line current spectrum of each faulty situation, using the Park transformation, is compared with the results obtained from the FFT(Fast Fourier Transform).

This paper aims to compare the performance of three phase induction motor drives using Five Leg Inverter (FLI) and Three Leg Inverter (TLI) configurations. An Indirect Field Oriented Control (IFOC) method using a TLI is well established and incorporated for high performance speed drives in various industries. The FLI dual motor drive system on the other hand shows good workability in the independent control of two induction motor drives simultaneously. In this experiment, the IFOC method is utilized for both drive systems, and Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) is used to generate pulses for both inverters. For the FLI, the Double Zero Sequence (DZS) Injection technique is used to generate the modulation signal. The complete experiment setup is done by using a DSpace 1103 controller board. The individual motor performances are analyzed using similar schemes, equipment setups and controller parameter values. The results show similar speed performance response capability between the single motor operation using a TLI system and the two motor operation using a FLI system based on the variable speed range either in forward or reverse operation. They also show similar load rejection abilities. However, the single motor with a TLI has a better power quality aspect such as ripple current and total harmonics distortion (THD).

In this paper, for high performance as drive, in the speed sensorless vector control of induction motor, introduced flux estimator of voltage model and error compensation algorithm using closed loop integration method, and then we proposed a improved flux estimation method of high accuracy. And the rotor speed is estimating using the stator current and the estimated flux, it is used speed information. The proposed scheme is verified through digital simulations and experiments for 3.7[kW] induction motor and shows good dynamic performance.

This study investigates a high-accuracy alternate QD model to estimate the characteristics of induction motor under light loads. To demonstrate the usefulness of the alternate QD model, a maximum torque per amp (MTPA) control based on the alternate model is shown to outperform MTPA control based on the standard QD model. The experimental study conducted in this work exhibits that the MTPA control based on the alternate QD model tracks torque commands between 20 Nm and 30 Nm with 5% error, whereas the MTPA control based on the standard QD model generates torques lower by over 23% compared with the aforementioned torque commands. This result indicates that the alternate QD model is a highly accurate model for induction motors under light loads.

본 논문에서는 전력에너지를 사용하는 산업체의 전동기용량이 점차 증가하고 있다. 전동기는 기동시 기동전류로 전압강하가 발생한다. 이 기동전류가 전력계통에서 대형 전동기 기동 시 전압강하로 기동이 어려워 인접한 전력계통에 나쁜 영향을 미치게 된다. 또한 전동기는 부하의 크기에 따라 토크를 내는 것으로 토크의 크기에 따라 속도가 변하고 속도는 전동기 기동에 중요하다. 일반적으로 변압기나 비상발전기로부터 전동기까지의 거리가 짧으며 전동기용량이 작아 기동에 대한 어려움이 없으나 산업설비 등에 많이 이용되는 대용량 전동기의 기동특성에 대한 이론과 실제의 운전특성을 측정 분석하였다. 따라서 이번 연구는 전동기 기동 시 속도와 토크에 관계와 대용량 전동기 기동을 위한 분석과 전동기 기동 해석에 대해 연구하였다.

This paper presents a proposed position controller for a vector controlled induction motor. The position controller design depends on the rotational motion equations and a classical speed controller (CSC) performance. The CSC is designed to have the ability to track variable reference inputs and to provide a predefined system performance. Standard position controller in industry is presented to analyze its performance and its drawbacks. Then the proposed position controller is designed, based on the well defined rotational motion equations. The proposed position controller and the CSC are applied to control the position and speed of the vector controlled induction motor with different ratings. Simulation results at different operating conditions are presented to evaluate the proposed controllers' performance. The results show that the CSC can drive the motor with a predefined speed performance and can track a variable reference speed with an approximately zero steady state error. The results also show that the proposed position controller has the ability to effect high-precision positioning in a limited time and to track a variable reference position with a zero steady state error.

This paper presents a new and simple method for sensorless operation of matrix converter drives using a constant air-gap flux and the imaginary power flowing to the motor. To improve low-speed sensorless performance, the non-linearities of a matrix converter drive such as commutation delays, turn-on and turn-off times of switching devices, and on-state switching device voltage drop are modelled using PQR transformation and compensated using a reference power control scheme. The proposed compensation method is applied for high performance induction motor drives using a 3 kW matrix converter system. Experimental results are shown to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed strategy.

전기철도는 전력공급시스템과 전기차로 구성되어 있다. 전기철도의 전기차는 대규모의 견인력을 얻을 수 있어 대량수송과 고속운전에 적합하다. 전기차는 모터블록과 견인전동기에 의해서 구동되며, 지령속도에 따라 모터블록에서 견인전동기에 전력을 공급하여 속도가 제어된다. 전기차의 속도제어는 모터블록과 견인전동기의 최소 에너지로 속도를 제어하는 것이 목표이다. 최근의 견인전동기는 직류 및 동기전동기에서 유도전동기를 사용하고 있다. 대부분의 유도전동기는 벡터제어기법을 사용하여 유도전동기의 속도를 제어한다. 본 논문에서는 유도전동기의 벡터제어기법을 이용하여 유도전동기의 속도를 제어하였다. Simulink를 이용하여 제어시스템을 모델링하고, PI 제어기와 Hysteresis 제어기를 이용하여 펄스를 제어하여 전동기의 속도를 제어하였다. 실시간 제어를 위해 IGBT 인버터를 사용하였고, 유도전동기 구동실험에 의해 시스템 성능을 입증하였다.
