Comparative Study of Speed Control of Induction Motor Using PI and Fuzzy Logic Controller

This paper proposes the idea of using “Fuzzy Logic Technique” in estimating motor speed and controlling it for Induction motor. The Induction motor is modeled using dq axis theory. The main objective of this project is to develop a fuzzy logic based controller to control the speed of the induction motor, employing the scalar control model. The voltage and frequency input to the induction motor are to be controlled in order to obtain the desired speed response. The designed Fuzzy Logic Controllers performance is also weighed against with that of a PI controller. For V/f speed control of the induction motor, a reference speed has been set and the control architecture includes a rule base of 49 rules. These rules portray a nonchalant relationship between two inputs i.e. speed error (e), change in speed error (∆e) and an output i.e change ofcontrol (ωsl)
