Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation Fed Direct Torque Control of Induction Motor Drive using Matlab-Simulink

Abstract

Now a day's induction motor drives are highly demanding to design both mechanical and electrical drive system which is used widely in many industrial applications. Recent years many mathematical models for induction motor drive using Simulink models are employed. Scalar and Vector control method can be applied to induction motors in three phases symmetric as well as unsymmetrical two-phase form. The mathematical and Simulink operation of the induction motor drive can be studied and it is equivalent to a DC motor by the vector control method. With the combined performance of the numerical electronics and power electronics we are capable to smoothly control the variable speed and torque in low power industrial operations. With the help of technological achievements, several command and control techniques are developed by the technologists to control the time, flux and torque of the industrial electrical machine drives. The direct torque control (DTC) technique is one of the most advanced mechanisms in control operation of torque and speed. This technique with SVPWM gives fine regulation without rotational speed controlled feedback. The electromagnetic torque and stator flux are estimated in DTC technique only stator currents and voltage and it is independent of the parameters of the motor except for the Rs i.e. stator resistance [7].
