Abstract

Conventional direct torque control (DTC) can be served to drive a dual three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (DTP-PMSM) by controlling the torque and speed. It relies on the direct application of controlled sequences through the use of a combination of dual hysteresis controllers with a transitioning table. In the course of conventional DTC implementation, there's generation of high armature current with lower-level harmonics, leading to increased losses that affect the machine's effectiveness. To enable a diminishment in these harmonics and consequently enhance the motor's efficiency, an approach to modify the conventional DTC is proposed. Specifically, this strategy involves adapting a new distribution of sectors and substituting the elements of the obtained switching table with synthetic elements. Simulated data validate the effectiveness of the chosen methodology.

Abstract

This paper presents the performance of a three-phase, three-level neutral point clamped inverter driving an induction motor for variable-speed applications, compared to a two-level inverter. The studied inverter operates using a novel sinusoidal pulse width modulation technique that improves the quality of voltage and current output signals while increasing efficiency. Motor speed control is achieved using the scalar control (V/Hz) method. Experimental validation of the simulation results is performed by executing the generated C code on the F28379D DSP LaunchPad within the MATLAB/Simulink and Code Composer Studio environment, applying the processor-in-the-loop (PIL) technique.
