This document describes an experiment to control the speed of a five-phase induction motor using a variable voltage/frequency (V/f) method with a digital signal processor (DSP). The motor speed is varied by adjusting the voltage and frequency from an inverter while maintaining a constant V/f ratio. Experimental results show that as the reference speed is increased in the DSP, the motor speed increases as well. However, some motor parameters like pole number could not be accurately identified. Overall, the experiment demonstrates open-loop speed control of a five-phase induction motor using DSP-controlled V/f control.

V/f Speed Control of Five Phase Induction Motor using DSP

Aim:
To control the speed of the Five phase Induction Motor driven from a variable
voltage source variable frequency supply (v/f control method) using DSP.

Apparatus and Software Required:


1. Code Composer Studio and MATLAB Software
2. Oscilloscope
3. Three Phase Inverter
4. 3Ø Induction Motor
5. Tachometer
6. DSP

Theory:
The speed control of Five phase Induction motor is basically difficult and is also
done at the cost of decrease in efficiency and electrical power factor. There are various
methods for the speed control like Pole changing, Slip recovery, Vector control, V/f
control, Variable Rotor resistance Control. Among V/f control is the most popular
because of its ease-of-implementation.
When supply is given to the three phase induction motor ,a rotating magnetic
field is produced which rotates at synchronous speed given by,
𝑓
𝑁𝑠 = 120 ∗
𝑃
Where, f = frequency and P is the number of Poles. The speed of the Induction motor
is given by,
𝑁 = 𝑁𝑠 (1 − 𝑆)
where S is Slip, N is the speed of the rotor of an Induction Motor,𝑁𝑠 is the synchronous
speed.
If the frequency changes synchronous speed changes but with decrease in frequency,
flux will increase and this change in value of flux causes saturation of rotor and stator
cores which will further cause increase in no load current of the motor. So, to maintain
flux, constant and it is only possible no change voltage. i.e. if decrease frequency flux
increases but at the same time if we decrease voltage flux will also decrease causing
no change in flux and hence it remains constant, which is easily obtained by using
inverter set.

Experimental Setup:
1. The three phase 50Hz AC mains is supplied to the inverter kit via an auto-
transformer. The Five phase inverter includes a three phase diode bridge
rectifier, brake chopper and three phase IGBT based PWM inverter.

2. The PWM pulse is generated from DSP with respect to the reference speed.

3. The pulse output is fed to the inverter through the level shifter.

4. The PWM Inverter varies the frequency of the supply and the voltage is varied
accordingly to keep the ratio constant.

5. The electromagnetic torque is directly proportional to the flux produced by the


stator which is in turn directly proportional to the ratio of the terminal voltage
and the supply frequency.

6. Hence by varying the magnitudes of V and f while keeping the V/f ratio
constant, the flux and hence the torque can be kept constant throughout the
speed range.

7. Even though, for constant flux, the relationship between the applied voltage and
the stator frequency appears linear i.e it does not go through the origin; it need a
small voltage to overcome the stator resistance at zero frequency.

8. Therefore an offset voltage at zero stator frequency to overcome the stator


resistance drop, which is kept an adjustable parameter in the inverter.

9. First the reference speed was set at minimum speed and their rotor speed, no
load current was noted.

10.And then slowly increase the reference speed note down the readings.

Inference:

• While conducting the experiment, we can’t find the proper name plate details of
the motor.
• Hence, number of poles of the motor is not identified correctly.
• Here , we assume that the motor may has 6 poles because the results obtained
with this assumption somewhat match the expectations but not satisfactory.
• The load and no load condition of the motor can’t be classified properly because
of coupled eddy current braking setup , which is not needed for our experiment.
• However, with the change in reference we obtain a corresponding change in
modulation index and thus a corresponding increase or decrease in speed of five
phase induction motor.

Result:
Thus, the speed of Five phase Induction motor was controlled by V/f method
using DSP in open loop.
