Voltage Frequency Ratio Control Method of the Cycloconverter Based on the GSO Algorithm

Abstract

In order to keep the flux constant when the asynchronous motor is running under load, especially under light load, a Glowworm swarm optimization (GSO) algorithm is proposed to control the voltage frequency ratio of the cycloconverter. Based on the analysis of the two variable control theory of the voltage frequency ratio of the cycloconverter and the working principle of the cycloconverter, the self-control method of the voltage frequency ratio of the cycloconverter by adaptive fuzzy backstepping sliding mode is proposed. In the control process, GSO and BFA are integrated to optimize the control process of the controller, and an adaptive selection strategy is adopted to ensure the adaptive step size of the firefly and improve the accuracy of the GSO algorithm. The experimental results show that when the optimal voltage-frequency ratio is switched between the online continuous frequency control strategy and the frequency range is small enough, the motor speed is stable, the speed regulation process is stable, and the motor is always in the state of high force index. It shows that the control method has a fast convergence speed and a good control effect on the voltage frequency ratio of the ring converter of the experimental motor, and it can keep the flux constant under light load.
