Abstract
In electric vehicles, the performance of the electric motor drive system depends on the characteristics of the control scheme applied. This paper discusses the torque ripple in an induction motor drive scheme exclusively and also proposes a new scheme to minimize it. The major cause of the torque ripple in induction motor drive is the presence of a high stator torque component (q-axis current) ripple. In the proposed scheme, the inverter is switched with the optimal duty ratio for the minimum q-axis current ripple. This leads to a decrease in q-axis current error and eventually torque ripple reduction. The distortion of the stator current waveform is also limited and gives rise to lower total harmonic distortion (THD). The feasibility of this proposed duty ratio modulated (DRM) improved torque and flux control scheme is studied using the MATLAB/Simulink computation tool and validated through appropriate experimentation.
