Modeling and analysis of closed-loop slip energy recovery induction motor drive using a linearization technique

Abstract

A fourth order nonlinear model is derived from a previously developed model (Krause et al., 1988) for an open-loop slip energy recovery induction motor drive. The nonlinear transient model of the open-loop drive is linearized around a steady-state operating point using a small signal perturbation technique and the transfer functions which relate the input and output variables are derived. The block diagram for the closed-loop control system is obtained. The responses of the proportional plus integral (PI) controller employed to control the rotor speed and the PI controller used to control the DC link current are predicted and compared with experimental results.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
