The objective of the paper is to develop a microcontroller controlled four switch three phase inverter (FSTPI) to drive three phase induction motor with minimum hardware. This inverter uses four switches instead of conventional six switches, it has lesser switching losses, lower electromagnetic interference (EMI), less complexity of control algorithms, robust control and reduced circuit complex...

Doubly-fed induction machines (DFIMs) have been proposed in the literature, among other applications, for high-performance storage systems, wind turbine generators or hybrid engines (see [1] for and extended literature survey and discussion). The attractiveness of the DFIM stems primarily from its ability to handle large-speed variations around the synchronous speed. Furthermore, this induction...

In this paper we propose the study of a centrifugal pump control system driven by a three-phase induction motor, which is supplied by a PhotoVoltaic PV generator. The system includes solar panel, a DC / DC converter equipped with its MPPT control, a voltage inverter to three-phase Pulse Width Modulation PWM and a centrifugal pump driven by a three phase induction motor. In order to control the ...

most of the methods that have been proposed for speed estimation of induction machines require the rotor and the stator resistance to change in the normal operating range. on the other hand, estimation of the rotor resistance requires rotor speed. in this paper, after studying conditions for simultaneous estimation of rotor speed and rotor resistance, a method for simultaneous estimation of rot...

Abstract—This paper presents reliability indices evaluation of the rotor core magnetization of the induction motor operated as a self excited induction generator by using probability distribution approach and Monte Carlo simulation. Parallel capacitors with calculated minimum capacitive value across the terminals of the induction motor operated as a SEIG with unregulated shaft speed have been c...
