This paper shows a comparison simulation results for two controllers using the same name plate of 2750 KW, 6.6 KV, 50 HZ for wound and squirrel cage motors using two methods of controlling, the first method is achieved by a conventional method and the second method is achieved by a frequency inverter respectively. Keywords— Squirrel cage and slip ring motors, conventional and VSD controllers si...

Recently a new and simple method to mitigate the transient instability of squirrel cage induction generators (IG) without using any additional equipment. The majority of the fixed speed wind turbines are equipped with squirrel cage IG and ac connected to the power system. During a fault in power system, voltage and rotor speed instability may occur, especially when the strength of the system co...

Single-phase squirrel cage and three-phase induction electromotors are the most popular electromotors used in industry from long ago. When an induction motor starts with direct connection method, it takes a lot of current from the power supply (several times the nominal current); so, several methods have been devised to start such electromotors. These methods either reduce the voltage of the st...

This paper presents a new rotor flux estimation method for sensorless vector controlled squirrel-cage induction generators used in wind power applications. The proposed method is based on a phase-locked loop (PLL) and the orthogonality between the rotor flux space vector and its back electromotive force (EMF) space vector. Rotor flux is estimated using stator voltage equations without integrati...
