The equations are given in vector format. Every vector variable has
two components: The first component is parallel to the reference frame axis
or ‘d’ axis and the second component is perpendicular to the reference axis or
‘q’ axis. The symbols are -voltage, -current, -flux linkage, -resistance
and - leakage inductance; subscript ‘s’ indicates the stator winding system,
‘s’
‘r’, the rotor winding system; superscript indicates the stator reference
frame (stator coordinates), ‘r’, the rotor reference frame and ‘a’
, any arbitrary
reference frame; is the magnetic flux in the air gap of the motor: the air
It is evident from the equations (2.1 to 2.5) that the motor voltage,
flux, and torque can be controlled easily by controlling the current of the
motor. So, the CSI is the right choice to control the motor directly because the
inputs of the current fed IM model are the stator currents. Before these
equations are completed to obtain the IM model, the reference frame of the
model in relation to the problem being investigated is chosen. In order to
evaluate the usefulness of each reference frame, the above equations are
simulated using MATLAB 7.6 software to predict the transient performance
of an IM.

Figure 2.1 shows the transient performance of ‘a’ phase and d-axis
stator currents in each reference frame when there is a step change in the
reference torque from 0 to full load at 1.4 seconds. From Figure 2.1 (a), it is
evident that in stator or stationary reference frame stator d-axis current
behaves exactly the same way as do the stator ‘a’ phase current of the motor.

If the stationary reference frame is used, then the stator d-axis current
identical to the stator phase current. This would be useful when interest is
specifically confined to stator variables, for example, variable speed stator-
fed IM drives. Similarly, if the rotor reference frame is used then the rotor d-
axis current will behave in exactly the same as the rotor ‘a’ phase current.
This would be useful when interest is confined to rotor variables only, as for
example in variable speed rotor-fed IM drives. From Figure 2.1 (b), it is
evident that in rotor rotating reference, frame stator d-axis current does not
behave as the stator phase current. From Figure 2.1 (c), it is apparent that in
synchronously rotating reference frame, stator d-axis current behaves like DC
quantity. If the synchronously rotating reference frame is used, then the stator
and rotor current behave like DC quantity. Thus, the controller design is
simple and is widely used in AC drives.

d-axis flux and so independent control is difficult. From Figure 2.2 (c), it is
evident that the stator d-axis flux and stator q-axis current (control variables)
have linear relationship with torque (speed). It is used in the Stator Flux
Oriented (SFO) Control methods.

The switching order of VSI topology is S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6.
Here, one switch from each leg always conducts except for a small period of
time to allow the conducting switch to turn off before the switch from the
same leg is turned on. The delay period is known as the blanking time that
prevents both switches in a leg conducting simultaneously, shorting the DC
link and causing a shoot-through fault, where current rises rapidly and is
likely to cause device(s) with the inverter to fail. Figure 2.5 details the
simulated gating control signals for each switch (excluding blanking time)
along with the resulting output voltage, Van, referred to as the load star point.

The switching order is the number order of the switches and results
in there always being one switch from top row and one switch from the
bottom row conducting at all times. Figure 2.8 details the simulated gating

control signals for each switch along with the resulting output voltage, Van,
for a static load referred to as the load star point. In CSI, maintaining a
constant IDC from a DC supply voltage control is desirable, which in turn
controls the current in the inductor. Six-step switching in a CSI results in the
same low frequency harmonics problems as the six-step switched VSI.

using this PWM scheme, the low frequency harmonics are eliminated. By
modulating the first and last /3 radians or 60 (of a half cycle), the low
frequency harmonics can be reduced to such a level that they can be
considered to have been eliminated.

However, this procedure is not valid during transient conditions and so the
most crucial variables (torque and flux) cannot be adequately regulated in
these situations. Besides, this absence of regulation depends on the transient
duration related to load characteristics. In this work, a vector based V/f
control for CSI fed IM drive is discussed. The dynamic performance of the
drive is obtained from the developed simulation circuits. The open and closed
loop performances are presented in the tabular form for easy comparison.
