Abstract
JEYASHANTHI, J and SANTHI, M. Improved efficiency of direct torque controlled induction motor drive by golden section method. Rev.fac.ing.univ. Antioquia [online]. 2019, n.91, pp.31-42. ISSN 0120-6230. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.redin.n91a04.
A search control based energy loss minimization technique is proposed for Direct Torque Control (DTC) of three phase Induction Motor (IM) with Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) used in Electric Vehicles (EV). The performance parameters of the EV considered for analysis are Dynamic performance and Efficiency. DTC is used to achieve the excellent dynamic performance of the IM drive. FLC is employed to achieve accurate speed tracking and enhance the ruggedness against disturbance and uncertainties. Loss minimization using Golden section method is proposed to search optimum level of flux value for DTC of induction motor drive. This will lead to minimum core loss and enhanced efficiency of the system. The proposed work is simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK. The simulation and experimental results are presented to validate the performance of the proposed loss minimization algorithm.
