Abstract

This paper presents a generic model of a fully FPGA-based direct torque controller. This model is developed using two’s-complement fixed-point format approaches, in register-transfer-level (RTL) VHDL abstraction for minimizing calculation errors and consuming hardware resource usage. Therefore, the model is universal and can be implemented for all FPGA types. The model is prepared for fast computation, without using of CORDIC algorithm, a soft-core CPU, a transformation from Cartesian-to-polar coordinates, and without the help of third-party applications. To get simpler implementation and fast computation, several methods were introduced: i) the backward-Euler approach to calculate the discrete-integration operation of stator flux, ii) the modified non-restoring method to calculate complicated square-root operation of stator flux, iii) a new sector analysis method. The design, which was coded in synthesizable VHDL in RTL abstraction for implementation on Altera DE2-board has produced very-precise calculations, with minimal error when being compared to MATLAB/Simulink double-precision calculation. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v11i2.2002

Abstract

The Direct Torque Control (DTC) of induction machine has received wide acceptance in many Variable Speed Drive (VSD) applications due to its simple control structure and excellent torque dynamic control performances. However, the conventional DTC which employs a two-level inverter and hysteresis controllers produces two major drawbacks, namely, larger torque ripple and variable switching frequency, which might produce a very high switching frequency (or power loss), particularly at a very low speed operation. This paper highlight the common methods used to provide the constant switching frequency for DTC drives for Induction Motor that able to minimize the power losses and reduced the torque ripple.

Abstract

Electric kick scooter field has become famous this lately, and become another solution for electric vehicle. Switched Reluctance Motor has been choosen as the propulsion system in this application due to the advantages of this motor. Meanwhile, the issue of lack experience in electrical motor design is one of the hollow subjects in machine design field. Through design aspects, the Switched Reluctance motor is developed using a simple technique which is coefficients method. This method is to provide the easiest ways for other non-academic designer for those who has lack experience in motor design. A set of a coefficient to determine motor dimension is being set. Then, this technique will be refered to the existing analytical method to provide a design guideline and to validate this coefficient as the quick references to design the SRM. The aim is not to make a comparison between the methods but intend to provide another easiest solution to design the SRM motor. The modelling has been test using RMxprt tools The expectation from this method is the outcomes will be compatible with existing design.

Abstract

In this paper, the improvement of torque ripple reduction will be focused based on the optimal voltage vector. This is attained by using five-level CHB inverter that applies in DTC drive control as a proposed method. The analysis is performed and simulated by using MATLAB/Simulink. In order to support the analysis, the comparison is realized between proposed method and conventional method which it applies two-level inverter. It will be analysed at constant torque region or steady-state operation on different range of operating speed which the speed is controlled by adjusting the motor load. Meaning that, the speed controller is neglected during analysis. Nevertheless, the adjustment of motor load must be applicable to the optimal voltage vector. The look-up table of five-level CHB inverter will become a guideline to select the optimal voltage vector. Therefore, it can maintain the simple structure of DTC hysteresis-based that fed by using five-level CHB inverter. As a result, the torque ripple can be minimized and torque capability can be retained even at low operating speed compared to the conventional DTC.

Abstract

Total harmonic distortion (THD) is a key index used to measure the quality of output waveforms in multilevel inverters. In this paper the THD is investigated and compared between two modulation methods; selective harmonic elimination and nearest level control, for 13-level transistor clamped H-bridge (TCHB) inverter. The selected TCHB topology employs a reduced number of DC sources and switches compared with other conventional multilevel inverters, which helps to reduce the size and cost of the inverter. The performance of both modulation methods has been validated through simulations using MATLAB/Simulink. The results show that for selective harmonic elimination, the 13-level output exists for a narrow range of modulation index, M (0.687≤M≤0.694),while for nearest level control method, the 13-level output exists for a wider range of M (M≥0.917), which means the 13-level output exists for different ranges of  for both methods. The THD obtained from both methods fulfills the IEEE Std 519-2014 standard of harmonics. Nearest level control method is conceptually simple and produces better THD results compared with selective harmonic elimination method.distortion (THD) is a key index used to measure the quality of output waveforms in multilevel inverters.
