State Space-Vector Model of Linear Induction Motors Including Iron Losses: Part II: Model Identification and Results
2018
This is the second part of a paper, divided into two parts, dealing with the definition of a space-vector dynamic model of the linear Induction motor (LIM) taking into consideration both the dynamic end-effects and the iron losses as well as the off-line identification of its parameters. The first part has treated the theoretical framework of the model. This second part is devoted to the description of an identification technique which has been suitably developed for the estimation of the parameters of the LIM dynamic model accounting for both the dynamic end-effects and iron losses, described in the first part of the paper. Such an identification technique is strictly related to the state …
Descriptor-type Kalman Filter and TLS EXIN Speed Estimate for Sensorless Control of a Linear Induction Motor.
2014
This paper proposes a speed observer for linear induction motors (LIMs), which is composed of two parts: 1) a linear Kalman filter (KF) for the online estimation of the inductor currents and induced part flux linkage components; and 2) a speed estimator based on the total least squares (TLS) EXIN neuron. The TLS estimator receives as inputs the state variables, estimated by the KF, and provides as output the LIM linear speed, which is fed back to the KF and the control system. The KF is based on the classic space-vector model of the rotating induction machine. The end effects of the LIMs have been considered an uncertainty treated by the KF. The TLS EXIN neuron has been used to compute, in …
Speed control of double-sided linear induction motors for automated manufacturing systems
2014
The double-sided linear induction motor (DLIM) is acquiring a significant relevance in the application of automated manufacturing systems. For this purpose, the modeling, simulation and determination of the parameters of a double-sided linear induction motor is presented in this paper. Furthermore, the DLIM constant voltage/frequency speed control system for this application is here described. In order to verify the performance of the proposed system, a suitable test bench for the DLIM motor is set-up. From the good agreement shown by the comparison between measured and simulated results, it can be stated that the DLIM model and the speed control system is successfully validated. © 2014 IEE…
Active disturbance rejection control of linear induction motor
2017
This paper proposes the theoretical framework and the experimental application of the active disturbance rejection control to linear induction motors. Such a nonlinear control (ADRC) technique can be viewed as a particular kind of input-output linearization control, where the nonlinear transformation of the state is not computed by means of the model, but it is estimated online. Such an approach permits to cope with unmodelling dynamics, as well as uncertainty in the knowledge of the model parameters and exogenous disturbances. The effectiveness of the proposed ADRC control law has been verified both by numerical simulations and experimentally on a suitably developed test setup. Moreover, t…
