Abstract

This article presents a suboptimal nonlinear control strategy to improve the dynamics of a three-phase alternating current (AC) motor. Using dynamic programming, the calculation of the Bellman function is avoided by determining a suboptimal control sequence that locally minimizes a quadratic performance index at each step. The motor’s fixed-frame nonlinear mathematical model controls the stator currents, rotor magnetic fluxes, and rotor angular speed by applying voltages to the stator. Experimental tests are conducted using a Delta VFD007EL11A variable frequency drive (VFD), demonstrating improved motor state behavior and performance compared to an optimal proportional integral (PI) control and a fixed reference input in the VFD. The experiments include set point changes and a comparative analysis of the energy consumption between both controllers considering two cases: free and with load on the motor shaft.
