Abstract

In this paper we present an electric go-kart suitable for an instructional laboratory in electric drives. An overview of propulsion system design, power conversion structure and control is presented. A three-phase squirrel-cage induction motor is used as propulsion system. The motor is controlled at different operating conditions by means of a simple scalar control using a low cost controller board developed for light electric vehicles used in local areas. The prototype has been designed specifically to meet the requirement of low cost and it contains all of the active functions required to implement the control of the go-kart
