In this paper, pole-changing induction motor has been studied. To control the speed of the induction motor, many various methods can be used. Compared to the other speed control method, pole changing method is simple, cost effective, and reliable. From this research, pole changing induction motor with 2 and 4 pole windings are analyzed and designed, of which rated torque is about 2Nm. A real induction motor is also fabricated and some experiment has been performed showing that the analysis and experiment results are similar.

In the vector control methods of induction motor, the stator current is divided into the flux and torque component current. By controlling these components respectively, the methods control independently flux and torque as in the DC motor and improve the control effects. To apply the vector control methods, the position of the rotor current is identified. The indirect vector control use the parameters of the machine to identify the position of rotor flux. But due to the temperature rise during machine operation, the variation of rotor resistance degrades the vector control. To solve the problem, the q-axis is aligned to reference frame without phase difference by comparing the real flux component with the reference flux component. Then to compensate the slip, PI controller is used. The proposed method keeps a constant slip by compensating the gain of direct slip frequency when the rotor resistance of induction motor varies. To prove the validations of the proposed algorithm in the paper, computer simulations is executed.

In this paper we proposed that the speed of induction motor is controlled by a PI controller, which could control unknown motor using Neural Network for auto-tuning of the PI parameter. The parameters of the PI controller were adjusted to reduce the speed error of the controlled motor. The input parameters of the Neural Network controller are the speed, q-axis current, and speed reference of the induction motor respectively. The usefulness of proposed controller will be confirmed by simulation which we compare with conventional PI controller.

The Single-Phase induction motor is widely used in home appliances, especially refrigerator, air conditioner and washing machine. Recently many home appliances that use the motor require the speed control to get the various and convenient functions for the customers. Generally it is so hard to control the speed of the Single-Phase induction motor and to get the wide range of the speed variation. In this raper, the speed controller using P-I is designed for the Single-Phase induct ion Motor. The experimental results of the phase controller using P-I show the wide speed control of the Single-Phase induction motor and rebuff control to load change.

The paper presents a digital speed control approach of induction motor systems by using a digital servo control method and a well-known second order differential equation as model. The basic concept of using the modeling equation stated in the above is induced from the control theory stand point such that we can describe usually the motor system connected by inverter, generator and load etc, just as a mechanical system to be controlled. The concept does not demand us the complicated vector-based modeling equation adopted in the traditional methods for the speed control of induction motor. Futhermore, the proposed speed control system can be treated as a single input and single output system. The effectiveness of the servo control system obtained by the above-mentioned design concept is illustrated by the experimental results in the presence of both step reference changes and load variations. It is observed from the experimental results that the steady state-error of the experimental set up becomes zero after some regulation time and the induction motor system is robust in spite of reference signal changes and load variations.

In this paper, a high-performance control of the induction motor for electric car was implemented to escape dependence of the rare earth magnet. Proposed high-efficiency control algorithm is a Direct Rotor Field-Oriented Control method that is insensitive to the fluctuation of motor parameters. In the DRFOC method, we need to compensate fluctuation of stator transient inductance and magnetizing inductance caused by the magnetic saturation of induction motor in high-speed area. This paper proposes Back-EMF Observer based on stator current estimator of Luenberger style. Motor control system applied the Voltage Feedback Flux Weakening Control method for high-speed operation. The proposed algorithm was verified through tests by the power train of Extended Range Electric Vehicle consists of induction motor and differential gear.

This paper is concerned with the simulation and determination of the input voltage and frequency for the optimal efficiency operation of induction motors. In general, induction motors have a specific character that operation efficiency is dropped sharply at the light roads condition. Consequently, if the induction motor is controlled by high efficiency using the VVVF(variable voltage variable frequency) control methods at optimal values, the entire system can obtain the substantial energy savings from the efficiency improvement in induction motors. In this paper, optimal slip is derived from the modeling of an induction motor and the optimal hybrid-control method is suggested by the simulation of the proposed algorithm for a 3-phase induction motor.

The induction motor of the electric vehicles is controlled based on the vector control method to obtain good torque control characteristics. In the conventional vector control system, the field exciting current should be kept on a constant value to keep a stable flux level. This method has a liability that core loss becomes increasing at the light load region. To solve this liability, the efficiency maximizing control method of the vector controlled induction motor is proposed in thid paper. We developed light weight water cooled 60kW induction motor drive system which adopts our method and fabricated a conversion electric car for actual vehicle test. We demonstrate the usefulness of drive system by comparing its driving mode with conventional field oriented system and an efficiency maximizing controlled induction motor.

In this paper, the position control of a detuned indirect field oriented control (IFOC) induction motor drive is studied. A proposed Simple-Neuro-Controllers (SNCs) are designed and analyzed to achieve high-dynamic performance both in the position command tracking and load regulation characteristics for robotic applications. The proposed SNCs are trained on-line based on the back propagation algorithm with a modified error function. Four SNCs are developed for position, speed and ｄ-ｑ axes stator currents respectively. Also, a synchronous proportional plus integral-derivative (PI-D) two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) position controller and PI-D speed controller are designed for an ideal IFOC induction motor drive with the desired dynamic response. The performance of the proposed SNCs and synchronous PI-D 2DOF position controllers for detuned field oriented induction motor servo drive is investigated. Simulation results show that the proposed SNCs controllers provide high-performance dynamic characteristics which are robust with regard to motor parameter variations and external load disturbance. Furthermore, comparing the SNC position controller with the synchronous PI-D 2DOF position controller demonstrates the superiority of the proposed SNCs controllers due to attain a robust control performance for IFOC induction motor servo drive system.

In this paper, the Sliding Mode Controller is applied to reduce the starting current of the single phase induction motor. The input voltage to the single phase induction motor is controlled so that the starting current of the motor may be maintained within the rating value and the velocity is also controlled, by adjusting the switching function of the Sliding Mode Controller. The switching of sliding control made appropriately with regard to velocity error signal and acceleration signal. It is shown that the starting characteristics of the single phase induction motor(SPIM) can be greatly enhanced through the sliding control of single phase induction motor.
