This paper proposes a rotor speed identification method for sensorless induction motor drives based on a model reference adaptive system (MRAS). In this scheme, the error between estimated stator current and real stator current is regarded as the system error to estimate the rotor speed. Adaptive fullorder flux observers for estimating the rotor speed are developed using Lyapunov’s stability th...

In this paper, using a personal computer (PC), the practical implementation of scalar and vector control methods on a three–phase rotor surface- type permanent magnet synchronous machine drive is discussed. Based on the machine dynamic equations and the above control strategies, two block diagrams are presented first for closed-loop speed controlling of the machine drive/system. Then, the desig...

A new online identification methodology for estimation of the rotor flux components and the main electrical parameters of vector controlled induction motors is presented in this paper. The induction motor model is referred to the rotor reference frame for estimation of rotor flux and rotor parameters, and referred to the stator reference frame to estimate stator parameters. The stator parameter...

-The output power of a wind energy conversion system (WECS) is maximized if the wind rotor is driven at an optimal rotational speed for a particular wind speed. To achieve this, a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) controller is usually used. A successful implementation of the MPPT controller requires knowledge of the turbine dynamics and instantaneous measurements of the wind speed and rotor ...

This paper uses a new position sensor less drive for brushless DC (BLDC) motors. In conventional sensor less control methods such as the back-EMF detection method, the performance is high only at a high speed range due to the fact that the magnitude of the back-EMF is dependent on the rotor speed. A solution is derived that estimates the rotor position by using an unknown input observer over a ...

This paper proposes a short-term frequency-response scheme of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind turbine generator (WTG) for improving rotor speed recovery and frequency nadir. In the energy-releasing period, to improve the frequency nadir and rotor speed convergence by releasing a large amount of kinetic energy stored in the rotating masses in a DFIG-based WTG, the power refere...

–In this paper deals with steady state analysis of self-excited slip ring induction generator (SESRIG) is performed using NewtonRaphson method. By varying effective rotor resistance of a self excited slip ring induction generator, the magnitude and frequency of the output voltage can be controlled over a wide speed range. A steady state analysis based on normalized equivalent circuit enables th...

Abstract : This paper proposes a speed tracking control of induction motors based on the inpuVoutput linearization method, which can also achieve the maximal power transfer. A simple group of observers are designed to estimate the rotor flux in order to determine the orientation of rotor flux. The control law of the maximal power transfer to the rotor gives the relationship between the stator v...

Abstract— The objective of this paper is to investigate the use of observers in the sensorless control of induction motor drives. First, three recently proposed rotor flux and speed observers for induction motors are analyzed and compared using a unified notation. Unresolved issues for each method are noted. Then, an alternative rotor flux and speed observer architecture is described, which is ...
