Abstract
In resistance-based rotor temperature estimation schemes, a grid-connected induction motor's rotor temperature is derived from a resistance quantity based on an equivalent circuit model. This temperature is susceptible to fluctuations in the motor's supply frequency. In this paper, the relationship between supply frequency fluctuations and accuracy in resistance-based rotor temperature estimates is analyzed, and a complex adaptive phase discriminator is proposed to track the supply frequency fluctuations for grid-connected induction motors. A complex voltage vector is constructed from polyphase voltage measurements and passed through a frequency-selective digital filter to attenuate harmonics and interference. The complex adaptive phase discriminator then operates on the filtered voltage signal, iteratively adapting a complex reference signal's phase to align it with the filtered voltage signal. The power grid's supply frequency is directly estimated from the adapted phase on a sample-by-sample basis. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed complex adaptive phase discriminator helps produce rotor temperature estimates with increased accuracy.
