1 Introduction

The direct torque control technology based on stator fluxorientation has beenwidely used in high-performance induc-tion motor control system It has the advantages of simplestructure not being sensitive to motor parameters and soforth [1 2] The key of achieving direct torque control ofasynchronous motor effectively lies in the accurate obtainingof stator flux information especially observing motor fluxexactly at a low stator frequency is even a big issue of ACspeed regulation [3ndash5]

In the aspect of robust estimator scholars have done alot of research work Reference [6] considers the modelingand adaptive output tracking of an FCTFPM as a nonlinearsystem with unknown nonlinearities by utilizing HGO andRBF neural networks A fuzzy reliable control strategy hasbeen presented for the tracking problem of the longitudinaldynamics of FAHVs model with actuator or sensor faultsand external disturbance Based on the T-S fuzzy modelingtechnology a T-S fuzzy model has been constructed torepresent the nonlinear dynamics of the FAHVs [7] Refer-ence [8] presents a fault tolerant tracking controller for aVTOL aircraft flight in uncertain conditions The consideredsystem contains structured uncertainties which affect themechanical parameters of the air vehicle Reference [9]

Voltage model is the basic method of the following statorflux It uses an ideal integrator described in formula (1) Thealgorithm of this model is simple which only need to knowthe stator resistance which is why the flux observing methodwhich is based on voltagemodel has always been given specialimportance [13 14] Consider

2 Mathematical Problems in Engineering

Although the voltage model is quite simple there are stillsome problems in practical application [15] (1) A small DCbias or drift in the current measurement channel will causethe integrator saturation (2) The stator resistance variationin low stator frequency makes the stator flux amplitude andphase observations have a big error (3)The initial value of theintegral produces the dc bias in the observed flux amplitude

In order to eliminate the effect ofDCbias it is proposed in[16] that the pure integrator should be replaced with low-passfilter but amplitude and phase error of flux can be introducedto it Adopting a programmable cascaded low-pass filter canovercome the effect of zero drift theoretically [17] but thecutoff frequency is of high precision It is difficult to getthe desired effect in practical application and the dynamicperformance is poor Using improved PLL to observe thestator flux is proposed in [18] but this method needs to usethe motor speed information based on permanent magnetsynchronous motor and the system has two convergencepoints meanwhile

The biggest reason why flux observation is inaccurate isthat the DC bias and unbalanced gain exist in current mea-surement channel hence this paper reduces the current mea-surement interference by using tracking differentiator [19 20]to filter the measuring stator current it also restrains the DCcomponent of stator current by using low-pass filter instead ofpure integral and it eliminates the amplitude attenuation andphase error brought by low-pass filter by using the back EMFcompensation algorithm Experimental results demonstrateeffectiveness and improved dynamic performance of suchmethod

2 Traditional Method of StatorFlux Estimation

The voltage model for flux observation is obtained accordingto the stator voltage equation Stator voltage equation and fluxequation are expressed as

u119904= 119877119904i119904+119889120595119904

119889119905 (2)

120595119904= int (u

119904minus i119904119877119904) 119889119905 (3)

where u119904is the stator voltage119877

119904is the stator resistant i

119904is the

stator current and 120595119904is the stator flux

Equation (3) is called the U-I model or the voltage modelof flux estimator Since the formula contains a pure integratorsmall DC bias can cause integral saturation which will resultin flux estimation error So it is usual to replace pure integralwith the first-order low-pass filter in voltage model namelylet the integral input signal go through a high-pass filter firstlyto filtrate the DC component

The stator flux has invariant amplitude in a steady staterevolving in the synchronous frequency which can be ex-pressed as

120595119904=10038161003816100381610038161205951199041003816100381610038161003816 119890119895120596119890119905

where 120596119890is the synchronous frequency of the motor

Equations (2) and (4) become

Equation (5) is the expression of actual stator fluxWhen observing stator flux through low-pass filter the

following equation can be written

119889119904

119889119905+ 120596119888119904= 119895120596119890lowast 119904+ 120596119888119904= u119904minus i119904119877119904

(6)

where 119904is the stator flux which is observed by low-pass filter

and 120596119888is the cutoff frequency of the low-pass filter

The connection between the estimated stator flux 119904and

the actual stator flux 120595119904can be concluded from (5) and (6)

which can be expressed as

From (7) it is clear that errors of flux in the amplitudeand the phase result from the replacement of pure integralwith a low-pass filter The higher the cutoff frequency is themore serious the distortion is shown in the flux amplitude andphase

According to the principle of the direct torque control theflux error can affect the steady state and dynamic operationof asynchronous motor directly Direct torque control selectsthe appropriate voltage vector according to the observed fluxand torque Meanwhile the low-pass filter cuts down the fluxamplitude so when the observing flux reached a given valuethe actual flux has already been far beyond that which leadsto the saturation of motor magnetic field Phase shift of theobserved flux can influence the accurate selection of voltagevector as well as the control characteristic of the motorBesides the estimation of torque in direct torque control isalso affected by flux value directly Therefore it is essential tohave amplitude and phase compensation for the result of low-pass filter Traditional method of flux observing is shown inFigure 1

where 120596119890is the synchronous frequency of the motor 120596

119888is the

cutoff frequency of the low-pass filterBy choosing appropriate cutoff frequency this compen-

sation algorithm can make the flux observer have a betterability in restraining DC drift and also have a strong abilityof anti-interference But this algorithm has a poor dynamicperformance The estimation of flux value will have big errorwhen stator current frequency has a sudden change [21] Forthis reason the sequence of applying the low-pass filteringalgorithm and the flux compensation can be exchangedmaking compensation for the back electromotive force firstlyas follows

119904120572and 119890119904120573are at 1205872 space angle Assuming that

the stator flux is in counterclockwise rotation it passes 120572 axisfirstly and then 120573 axis Therefore in a constant flux controlmode 119890

119904120572and 119890

119904120573have the same amplitude and different

phase which can be rewritten as

119904120573= minus119895119890

119904120572 (11)

Combining (9)sim(11) leads to the following expression

119890119904120572= 119890119904120572+120596119888

Practice shows that the optimal cutoff frequency for low-pass filter should be 20sim30 of the synchronous frequency120596119890[16] It is hard to estimate synchronous frequency of

the motor when it is running whereas the stator currentfrequency can be obtained through the detected currentsignal so it can replace the synchronous frequencyThereforethe cutoff frequency of low-pass filter can be calculated asfollows

120596119888= 1205960+ 119896120596119894 (13)

where 1205960is the initial value It ensures that when rotating

speed is close to zero the cutoff frequency will not be toolow 120596

119894is the stator current frequency and 119896 is coefficient of

proportionality (02-03)According to the above in order to achieve this modified

low-pass filter algorithm it is necessary to settle on the statorcurrent frequency120596

119894The space situation of the stator current

in the 120572-120573 coordinate system can be expressed as

120579119894= arctan(

119894119904120573

119894119904120572

) (14)

where the stator current frequency can be obtained by differ-entiating 120579

119894 the discretization formula is shown as follows

120596119894(119896)

=120579(119896)minus 120579(119896minus1)

where ℎ is integration step and 119903 is a parameter that deter-mines the tracking speed

In order to validate the filtering performance of trackingdifferentiator as shown in Figure 2 a Simulink simulationmodel is built with an interference input signal as follows

V (119905) = sin 119905 + 119889 (119905) (18)

where 119889(119905) is the uniformly distributed random disturbancesignal with the amplitude 1 and is used to simulate themeasurement noise of the current sampling

The simulation results are shown in Figure 3 it can beseen that the tracking differentiator restores the contaminatedoriginal signal Hence this paper tries to introduce trackingdifferentiator to filter the stator current

33 Build Up Complete Flux Observing Model Based on theabove analysis the complete illustrative diagram of stator fluxobserving model is shown in Figure 4 The current whichis used to count the back electromotive force is filtered bytracking differentiator and then compensate the back electro-motive force and then get the stator flux through the low-passfilter Use the stator flux signal to calculate angular frequencyand cutoff frequency which is fed back to compensationalgorithm and low-pass algorithm

the speed waveforms are basically the same of the two meth-ods From Figure 7 it can be seen that the current waveformsare basically the same of the twomethods as well but currentharmonic wave is smaller in the method proposed in thispaper which illustrates that the use of tracking differentiatorin filtering has improved the current fluctuation

With the targeted speed getting slower the traditionalmethod can barely guarantee performance of the motor con-trol Figures 8 and 9 give the compared experimental wave-forms of the two methods where the targeted motor speedsare both 50 rmin It can be seen from Figure 8 that in thetraditional method the motor speed has a huge fluctuationthat is to say the DTC has already become invalid themotor speed is kept around the targeted one and has a smallfluctuation by using the flux observing method of this paperFrom the current waveforms shown in Figure 9 it is clear thatthere are a lot of current harmonic waves and the waveformalso has distortions in the traditional method but currentwaveform in the method of this paper is still in good state

When the targeted speed is set to be 25 rmin the exper-imental result of DTC system using traditional method hasa poor performance the motor operates intermittently andthe control is totally invalid whereas the DTC system basedon flux observing model of this paper can still run smoothlyUsing the method of this paper the speed and the currentwaveforms which are shown in Figure 10 aimed at a speedof 25 rmin The experimental results show that the fluxobservation method proposed in this paper can improve thelow-speed performance of DTC

Under the experimental condition that the speed changessharply from 150 rmin to 50 rmin in the 45 s Figures 11and 12 give the current waveforms of two methods Whenthe speed turns sharply it is obvious that the load andcurrent fluctuation are smaller in the method of this paperWhen the targeted speed is 50 rmin under the experimentalcondition that the load torque changes sharply from 0Nsdotm to03Nsdotm in the 45 s Figures 13 14 and 15 show the speed andstator current and torque waveforms of two methods Whenthe load torque changes sharply the torque of traditionalmethod has a huge fluctuation whereas in the method of thispaper the torque has a small fluctuation Experimental resultsdemonstrate the improved dynamic performance of such fluxobserving method mentioned in this paper

5 Conclusion

To solve the stator flux observation problem of asynchronousmotor the observation scheme that compensates for backEMF firstly and then filters through low-pass filter is pro-posed at themean time tracking differentiator is used to filterthe stator current and the simple voltage model is retainedand all the above lead to the improvement of the dynamicprecision of flux observing This scheme can improve thedynamic and low-speed performance of the DTC system ofinduction motors The accuracy of flux observation is lessinfluenced by the stator frequency mutation and there isless current harmonic waves with efficiently restrained torquefluctuation

2 Mathematical Problems in Engineering

Although the voltage model is quite simple there are stillsome problems in practical application [15] (1) A small DCbias or drift in the current measurement channel will causethe integrator saturation (2) The stator resistance variationin low stator frequency makes the stator flux amplitude andphase observations have a big error (3)The initial value of theintegral produces the dc bias in the observed flux amplitude

In order to eliminate the effect ofDCbias it is proposed in[16] that the pure integrator should be replaced with low-passfilter but amplitude and phase error of flux can be introducedto it Adopting a programmable cascaded low-pass filter canovercome the effect of zero drift theoretically [17] but thecutoff frequency is of high precision It is difficult to getthe desired effect in practical application and the dynamicperformance is poor Using improved PLL to observe thestator flux is proposed in [18] but this method needs to usethe motor speed information based on permanent magnetsynchronous motor and the system has two convergencepoints meanwhile

The biggest reason why flux observation is inaccurate isthat the DC bias and unbalanced gain exist in current mea-surement channel hence this paper reduces the current mea-surement interference by using tracking differentiator [19 20]to filter the measuring stator current it also restrains the DCcomponent of stator current by using low-pass filter instead ofpure integral and it eliminates the amplitude attenuation andphase error brought by low-pass filter by using the back EMFcompensation algorithm Experimental results demonstrateeffectiveness and improved dynamic performance of suchmethod

2 Traditional Method of StatorFlux Estimation

The voltage model for flux observation is obtained accordingto the stator voltage equation Stator voltage equation and fluxequation are expressed as

u119904= 119877119904i119904+119889120595119904

119889119905 (2)

120595119904= int (u

119904minus i119904119877119904) 119889119905 (3)

where u119904is the stator voltage119877

119904is the stator resistant i

119904is the

stator current and 120595119904is the stator flux

Equation (3) is called the U-I model or the voltage modelof flux estimator Since the formula contains a pure integratorsmall DC bias can cause integral saturation which will resultin flux estimation error So it is usual to replace pure integralwith the first-order low-pass filter in voltage model namelylet the integral input signal go through a high-pass filter firstlyto filtrate the DC component

The stator flux has invariant amplitude in a steady staterevolving in the synchronous frequency which can be ex-pressed as

120595119904=10038161003816100381610038161205951199041003816100381610038161003816 119890119895120596119890119905

Equations (2) and (4) become

Equation (5) is the expression of actual stator fluxWhen observing stator flux through low-pass filter the

following equation can be written

119889119904

119889119905+ 120596119888119904= 119895120596119890lowast 119904+ 120596119888119904= u119904minus i119904119877119904

(6)

where 119904is the stator flux which is observed by low-pass filter

and 120596119888is the cutoff frequency of the low-pass filter

The connection between the estimated stator flux 119904and

the actual stator flux 120595119904can be concluded from (5) and (6)

which can be expressed as

(7)

From (7) it is clear that errors of flux in the amplitudeand the phase result from the replacement of pure integralwith a low-pass filter The higher the cutoff frequency is themore serious the distortion is shown in the flux amplitude andphase

According to the principle of the direct torque control theflux error can affect the steady state and dynamic operationof asynchronous motor directly Direct torque control selectsthe appropriate voltage vector according to the observed fluxand torque Meanwhile the low-pass filter cuts down the fluxamplitude so when the observing flux reached a given valuethe actual flux has already been far beyond that which leadsto the saturation of motor magnetic field Phase shift of theobserved flux can influence the accurate selection of voltagevector as well as the control characteristic of the motorBesides the estimation of torque in direct torque control isalso affected by flux value directly Therefore it is essential tohave amplitude and phase compensation for the result of low-pass filter Traditional method of flux observing is shown inFigure 1

where 120596119890is the synchronous frequency of the motor 120596

119888is the

cutoff frequency of the low-pass filterBy choosing appropriate cutoff frequency this compen-

sation algorithm can make the flux observer have a betterability in restraining DC drift and also have a strong abilityof anti-interference But this algorithm has a poor dynamicperformance The estimation of flux value will have big errorwhen stator current frequency has a sudden change [21] Forthis reason the sequence of applying the low-pass filteringalgorithm and the flux compensation can be exchangedmaking compensation for the back electromotive force firstlyas follows

119904120572and 119890119904120573are at 1205872 space angle Assuming that

the stator flux is in counterclockwise rotation it passes 120572 axisfirstly and then 120573 axis Therefore in a constant flux controlmode 119890

119904120572and 119890

119904120573have the same amplitude and different

phase which can be rewritten as

119890119904120572= 119895119890119904120573 119890

119904120573= minus119895119890

119904120572 (11)

Combining (9)sim(11) leads to the following expression

119890119904120572= 119890119904120572+120596119888

(12)

Practice shows that the optimal cutoff frequency for low-pass filter should be 20sim30 of the synchronous frequency120596119890[16] It is hard to estimate synchronous frequency of

the motor when it is running whereas the stator currentfrequency can be obtained through the detected currentsignal so it can replace the synchronous frequencyThereforethe cutoff frequency of low-pass filter can be calculated asfollows

120596119888= 1205960+ 119896120596119894 (13)

where 1205960is the initial value It ensures that when rotating

speed is close to zero the cutoff frequency will not be toolow 120596

119894is the stator current frequency and 119896 is coefficient of

proportionality (02-03)According to the above in order to achieve this modified

low-pass filter algorithm it is necessary to settle on the statorcurrent frequency120596

119894The space situation of the stator current

in the 120572-120573 coordinate system can be expressed as

120579119894= arctan(

119894119904120573

119894119904120572

) (14)

where the stator current frequency can be obtained by differ-entiating 120579

119894 the discretization formula is shown as follows

120596119894(119896)

=120579(119896)minus 120579(119896minus1)

Δ119879 (15)

32TrackingDifferentiator Because of themeasurement noisethe stator current can affect the precision of flux observationtherefore stator current needs to be filtered Tracking differ-entiator (TD) is the essential part of ADRC [22] The initialpurpose of TD is to rationally extract continuous signal anddifferential signal from discontinuous or band random noisesignal when it comes to the practical engineering problemsAfter a further research on TD discretization form of TDwasproposed making it easier for computer calculation and bet-ter in filtering

where ℎ is integration step and 119903 is a parameter that deter-mines the tracking speed

In order to validate the filtering performance of trackingdifferentiator as shown in Figure 2 a Simulink simulationmodel is built with an interference input signal as follows

V (119905) = sin 119905 + 119889 (119905) (18)

where 119889(119905) is the uniformly distributed random disturbancesignal with the amplitude 1 and is used to simulate themeasurement noise of the current sampling

The simulation results are shown in Figure 3 it can beseen that the tracking differentiator restores the contaminatedoriginal signal Hence this paper tries to introduce trackingdifferentiator to filter the stator current

33 Build Up Complete Flux Observing Model Based on theabove analysis the complete illustrative diagram of stator fluxobserving model is shown in Figure 4 The current whichis used to count the back electromotive force is filtered bytracking differentiator and then compensate the back electro-motive force and then get the stator flux through the low-passfilter Use the stator flux signal to calculate angular frequencyand cutoff frequency which is fed back to compensationalgorithm and low-pass algorithm

some division operations requiring a higher speed processorIn this paper we chose DSP28335 up to 150MHz which canmeet the requirements

In the control procedure of experiment the control pe-riod is 100120583119904 The two flux observing methods are comparedin the experiment the result of the traditional method isshown in Figure 1 whereas the result of themethod proposedin this paper is shown in Figure 4 Except the flux observingmethod other conditions are all the same in this experiment

42 Experimental Results Figures 6 and 7 give the comparedexperimental waveforms of the two methods where the tar-geted motor speeds are both 150 rmin It can be seen fromFigure 6 that when the targeted motor speed is higher

the speed waveforms are basically the same of the two meth-ods From Figure 7 it can be seen that the current waveformsare basically the same of the twomethods as well but currentharmonic wave is smaller in the method proposed in thispaper which illustrates that the use of tracking differentiatorin filtering has improved the current fluctuation

With the targeted speed getting slower the traditionalmethod can barely guarantee performance of the motor con-trol Figures 8 and 9 give the compared experimental wave-forms of the two methods where the targeted motor speedsare both 50 rmin It can be seen from Figure 8 that in thetraditional method the motor speed has a huge fluctuationthat is to say the DTC has already become invalid themotor speed is kept around the targeted one and has a smallfluctuation by using the flux observing method of this paperFrom the current waveforms shown in Figure 9 it is clear thatthere are a lot of current harmonic waves and the waveformalso has distortions in the traditional method but currentwaveform in the method of this paper is still in good state

When the targeted speed is set to be 25 rmin the exper-imental result of DTC system using traditional method hasa poor performance the motor operates intermittently andthe control is totally invalid whereas the DTC system basedon flux observing model of this paper can still run smoothlyUsing the method of this paper the speed and the currentwaveforms which are shown in Figure 10 aimed at a speedof 25 rmin The experimental results show that the fluxobservation method proposed in this paper can improve thelow-speed performance of DTC

Under the experimental condition that the speed changessharply from 150 rmin to 50 rmin in the 45 s Figures 11and 12 give the current waveforms of two methods Whenthe speed turns sharply it is obvious that the load andcurrent fluctuation are smaller in the method of this paperWhen the targeted speed is 50 rmin under the experimentalcondition that the load torque changes sharply from 0Nsdotm to03Nsdotm in the 45 s Figures 13 14 and 15 show the speed andstator current and torque waveforms of two methods Whenthe load torque changes sharply the torque of traditionalmethod has a huge fluctuation whereas in the method of thispaper the torque has a small fluctuation Experimental resultsdemonstrate the improved dynamic performance of such fluxobserving method mentioned in this paper

5 Conclusion

To solve the stator flux observation problem of asynchronousmotor the observation scheme that compensates for backEMF firstly and then filters through low-pass filter is pro-posed at themean time tracking differentiator is used to filterthe stator current and the simple voltage model is retainedand all the above lead to the improvement of the dynamicprecision of flux observing This scheme can improve thedynamic and low-speed performance of the DTC system ofinduction motors The accuracy of flux observation is lessinfluenced by the stator frequency mutation and there isless current harmonic waves with efficiently restrained torquefluctuation

where 120596119890is the synchronous frequency of the motor 120596

119888is the

cutoff frequency of the low-pass filterBy choosing appropriate cutoff frequency this compen-

sation algorithm can make the flux observer have a betterability in restraining DC drift and also have a strong abilityof anti-interference But this algorithm has a poor dynamicperformance The estimation of flux value will have big errorwhen stator current frequency has a sudden change [21] Forthis reason the sequence of applying the low-pass filteringalgorithm and the flux compensation can be exchangedmaking compensation for the back electromotive force firstlyas follows

E119904= u119904minus i119904119877119904 E

119904G = E

In the 120572 minus 120573 coordinate system back electromotive forcecomponents 119890

119904120572and 119890119904120573are at 1205872 space angle Assuming that

the stator flux is in counterclockwise rotation it passes 120572 axisfirstly and then 120573 axis Therefore in a constant flux controlmode 119890

119904120572and 119890

119904120573have the same amplitude and different

phase which can be rewritten as

119890119904120572= 119895119890119904120573 119890

119904120573= minus119895119890

119904120572 (11)

Combining (9)sim(11) leads to the following expression

119890119904120572= 119890119904120572+120596119888

Practice shows that the optimal cutoff frequency for low-pass filter should be 20sim30 of the synchronous frequency120596119890[16] It is hard to estimate synchronous frequency of

the motor when it is running whereas the stator currentfrequency can be obtained through the detected currentsignal so it can replace the synchronous frequencyThereforethe cutoff frequency of low-pass filter can be calculated asfollows

120596119888= 1205960+ 119896120596119894 (13)

where 1205960is the initial value It ensures that when rotating

speed is close to zero the cutoff frequency will not be toolow 120596

119894is the stator current frequency and 119896 is coefficient of

proportionality (02-03)According to the above in order to achieve this modified

low-pass filter algorithm it is necessary to settle on the statorcurrent frequency120596

119894The space situation of the stator current

in the 120572-120573 coordinate system can be expressed as

120579119894= arctan(

119894119904120573

119894119904120572

) (14)

where the stator current frequency can be obtained by differ-entiating 120579

119894 the discretization formula is shown as follows

120596119894(119896)

=120579(119896)minus 120579(119896minus1)

where ℎ is integration step and 119903 is a parameter that deter-mines the tracking speed

In order to validate the filtering performance of trackingdifferentiator as shown in Figure 2 a Simulink simulationmodel is built with an interference input signal as follows

V (119905) = sin 119905 + 119889 (119905) (18)

where 119889(119905) is the uniformly distributed random disturbancesignal with the amplitude 1 and is used to simulate themeasurement noise of the current sampling

The simulation results are shown in Figure 3 it can beseen that the tracking differentiator restores the contaminatedoriginal signal Hence this paper tries to introduce trackingdifferentiator to filter the stator current

some division operations requiring a higher speed processorIn this paper we chose DSP28335 up to 150MHz which canmeet the requirements

In the control procedure of experiment the control pe-riod is 100120583119904 The two flux observing methods are comparedin the experiment the result of the traditional method isshown in Figure 1 whereas the result of themethod proposedin this paper is shown in Figure 4 Except the flux observingmethod other conditions are all the same in this experiment

42 Experimental Results Figures 6 and 7 give the comparedexperimental waveforms of the two methods where the tar-geted motor speeds are both 150 rmin It can be seen fromFigure 6 that when the targeted motor speed is higher

the speed waveforms are basically the same of the two meth-ods From Figure 7 it can be seen that the current waveformsare basically the same of the twomethods as well but currentharmonic wave is smaller in the method proposed in thispaper which illustrates that the use of tracking differentiatorin filtering has improved the current fluctuation

With the targeted speed getting slower the traditionalmethod can barely guarantee performance of the motor con-trol Figures 8 and 9 give the compared experimental wave-forms of the two methods where the targeted motor speedsare both 50 rmin It can be seen from Figure 8 that in thetraditional method the motor speed has a huge fluctuationthat is to say the DTC has already become invalid themotor speed is kept around the targeted one and has a smallfluctuation by using the flux observing method of this paperFrom the current waveforms shown in Figure 9 it is clear thatthere are a lot of current harmonic waves and the waveformalso has distortions in the traditional method but currentwaveform in the method of this paper is still in good state

When the targeted speed is set to be 25 rmin the exper-imental result of DTC system using traditional method hasa poor performance the motor operates intermittently andthe control is totally invalid whereas the DTC system basedon flux observing model of this paper can still run smoothlyUsing the method of this paper the speed and the currentwaveforms which are shown in Figure 10 aimed at a speedof 25 rmin The experimental results show that the fluxobservation method proposed in this paper can improve thelow-speed performance of DTC

Under the experimental condition that the speed changessharply from 150 rmin to 50 rmin in the 45 s Figures 11and 12 give the current waveforms of two methods Whenthe speed turns sharply it is obvious that the load andcurrent fluctuation are smaller in the method of this paperWhen the targeted speed is 50 rmin under the experimentalcondition that the load torque changes sharply from 0Nsdotm to03Nsdotm in the 45 s Figures 13 14 and 15 show the speed andstator current and torque waveforms of two methods Whenthe load torque changes sharply the torque of traditionalmethod has a huge fluctuation whereas in the method of thispaper the torque has a small fluctuation Experimental resultsdemonstrate the improved dynamic performance of such fluxobserving method mentioned in this paper

5 Conclusion

To solve the stator flux observation problem of asynchronousmotor the observation scheme that compensates for backEMF firstly and then filters through low-pass filter is pro-posed at themean time tracking differentiator is used to filterthe stator current and the simple voltage model is retainedand all the above lead to the improvement of the dynamicprecision of flux observing This scheme can improve thedynamic and low-speed performance of the DTC system ofinduction motors The accuracy of flux observation is lessinfluenced by the stator frequency mutation and there isless current harmonic waves with efficiently restrained torquefluctuation

When the targeted speed is set to be 25 rmin the exper-imental result of DTC system using traditional method hasa poor performance the motor operates intermittently andthe control is totally invalid whereas the DTC system basedon flux observing model of this paper can still run smoothlyUsing the method of this paper the speed and the currentwaveforms which are shown in Figure 10 aimed at a speedof 25 rmin The experimental results show that the fluxobservation method proposed in this paper can improve thelow-speed performance of DTC

Under the experimental condition that the speed changessharply from 150 rmin to 50 rmin in the 45 s Figures 11and 12 give the current waveforms of two methods Whenthe speed turns sharply it is obvious that the load andcurrent fluctuation are smaller in the method of this paperWhen the targeted speed is 50 rmin under the experimentalcondition that the load torque changes sharply from 0Nsdotm to03Nsdotm in the 45 s Figures 13 14 and 15 show the speed andstator current and torque waveforms of two methods Whenthe load torque changes sharply the torque of traditionalmethod has a huge fluctuation whereas in the method of thispaper the torque has a small fluctuation Experimental resultsdemonstrate the improved dynamic performance of such fluxobserving method mentioned in this paper

5 Conclusion

To solve the stator flux observation problem of asynchronousmotor the observation scheme that compensates for backEMF firstly and then filters through low-pass filter is pro-posed at themean time tracking differentiator is used to filterthe stator current and the simple voltage model is retainedand all the above lead to the improvement of the dynamicprecision of flux observing This scheme can improve thedynamic and low-speed performance of the DTC system ofinduction motors The accuracy of flux observation is lessinfluenced by the stator frequency mutation and there isless current harmonic waves with efficiently restrained torquefluctuation
