Electric Engineering Department, Assiut University, Assiut, Egypt * [email protected] Abstract This paper presents a v/f control of induction motor with different pulse width modulation ( PWM) techniques as sine triangle pulse width modulation ( SPWM), Third-harmonic pulse width modulation (THPWM) and Space vector pulse width modulation(SVPWM) using MATLAB SIMULINK. Induction motor modeled in the synchronous q-d reference frame. The performance of IM with full load torque is compared using these techniques for THD, harmonics spectra, utilization of dc supply voltage, fundamental peak of the output voltage and motor speed. The dynamic performance of IM using SVPWM under reference speed and load torque variations is studied also. The results show that the SVPWM is the efficient one because its superior performance characteristics. The operation of IM with v/f method for closed loop system is enhancement when SVPWM technique is applied. Keywords: Space vector modulation, SPWM, V/f control, Harmonic injection. 1. Introduction Among all types of ac machine, the induction machine especially the cage type, is the most commonly used in industry. These machines have merits as economical, rugged, and reliable and are available in the ranges of fractional horse power to multi megawatt capacity (Bose 2011). the induction motor has two inherent limitations: (1) the standard motor is not a true constant speed machine, its full load slip varies from less than 1% (in high horse power )to more than 5%(in fractional-horsepower ) .(2) it is not , inherently capable of providing variable speed operation . A closed-loop speed control with constant v/f method is implemented when accuracy in speed response is a concern as shown in Fig.1 .A PI controller is employed to regulate the slip speed of the motor to keep the motor speed at its set value (Ogbuka et al .2009). A pulse width modulated inverter(PWM) employing pure sinu soidal modulation ,cant provide sufficient voltage to enable a standard motor to operate at rated values .Sufficient voltage can be obtained from the inverter by overmodulating , however this produce distortion of the output waveform. The necessary increase in voltage can be obtained without Resort to over-modulation and without distortion of the line-to-line output voltage waveform by using third harmonic injection. By addition of 17% third harmonic component to the original sine reference wave form the resulting flat-topped waveform allows over-modulation (with respect to the Original sine PWM technique) while maintaining excellent fundamental peak value( Houldsworth et al .1984). Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) is a form of Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Suggested in mid 1980s which was claimed to be more efficient compared to natural and regular sampled PWM. SVPWM has been the subject research interest in further the efficiency; hence, many works have been done especially in improving the algorithm and hardware implementation (Nazlee et al 2010). It gives 15% more output voltage then conventional modulation, i.e. better DC-link utilization and More efficient use of DC supply voltage. SVPWM is the best among all the PWM techniques for variable frequency drive application. Because of its superior performance characteristics, it has been finding widespread application in recent years (Arulmozhiyal & Baskaran 2009). A comparison between SPWM and SVPWM techniques is done for THD, harmonic, dc bus utilization and output voltage of v/f control of induction motor for both open loop and closed loop systems (Swamy & Kumar 2009). In this paper a comparison between the three techniques SPWM, THPWM and SVPWM with v/f closed loop speed control of three phase induction motor, the modulation index, dc bus voltage and switching frequency will be the

same for all types .the main points of comparison are THD, harmonics spectra, dc utilization, fundamental peak of the output voltage and motor speed. The dynamic performance of IM using SVPWM under reference speed variation and load torque variation is studied also. 2. Space vector modulation Space vector modulation (SVM) is quite different from the PWM methods .SVM treats the inverter as a single unit; specifically, the inverter can be driven to eight unique states as shown in Table. I. Modulation is accomplished by switching the state of the inverter .The control strategies are implemented in digital system .The objective is to generate PWM load line voltage that are in average equal to a given (or reference ) load line voltage .This is done in each sampling period by properly selecting the switch states of the inverter and calculation of the appropriate time period for each state .The selection of the states and their time periods are accomplished by the space vector transformation ( Rashid 1993). The circuit model of a typical three-phase voltage source PWM inverter is shown in Fig.2. S1 to S6 are the six power switches that shape the output voltage. It has been shown to generate less harmonic distortion in the output voltages and or currents applied to the phases of an AC motor and to provide more efficient use of supply voltage compared with sinusoidal modulation technique as shown in Fig.3. As a result, six non-zero vectors and two zero vectors are possible. Six nonzero vectors (V1 - V6) shape the axes of a hexagonal as depicted in Fig.4, and feed electric power to the load. The angle between any adjacent two non-zero vectors is 60 degrees. Meanwhile, two zero vectors (V0 and V7) are at the origin and apply zero voltage to the load (Woo Jung & Keyhani 2005). Note that the respective voltage should multiplied by Vdc. The space vector PWM is realized based on the following steps (Woo Jung & Keyhani 2005): Step 1. Determine Vd, Vq, Vref, and angle () Step 2. Determine time duration T1, T2, T0 Step3.Determine the switching time of each transistor (S1 to S6)
A. Determine Vd, Vq, Vref, and angle (): From Fig.5, the Vd, Vq, Vref, and angle () can be determined as follows:

C. Determine the switching time of each transistor (S1 to S6): Fig.7 shows space vector PWM switching patterns at sector 1 and 2 for example. The switching time at each sector is summarized in Table .II, and it will be built in Simulink model to implement SVPWM. 3. Third Harmonic Modulation The idea of Sine plus 3rd harmonic modulation technique is based on the fact that the 3-phase inverter-bridge feeding a 3-phase ac load does not provide a path for zero-sequence component of load current. The THPWM technique is a modification over the SPWM technique wherein intentionally some amount of third harmonic voltage is added to the reference voltage waveform. Now, the resultant waveform (modified modulating signal) is compared with the high frequency triangular carrier waveform as shown in Fig.8. The output of comparator is used for controlling the inverter switches exactly as in SPWM inverter. The advantage of adding small amount of third harmonic in the modulating waveform is that it brings down the peak magnitude of the resultant modulating waveform. The modified modulating waveform appears more flat topped than its fundamental component (Rashid 1993), (Sengupta et al. 2013) . The analytical expression for the reference waveform is:
y = K ( n(wt) +
1 n(3wt)) 6
(7)
Where K is a factor for increasing the amplitude. The addition of one-six of third harmonic produce a 15.5 %increase in the amplitude of the fundamental of the phase voltage waveform, therefore the third harmonic PWM provide better utilization of the dc supply voltage than the SPWM (Boost & Ziogas 1988). 4. Mathematical Model of Induction Motor Driving the model equations can be generated from the dq0 equivalent circuit of the induction machine shown in Fig .9. The flux linkages equations associated with this circuit can be found as follows [1], [13-14]:

For squirrel cage induction motor, the rotor voltages Vqr and Vdr in the flux equations are set to zero since the rotor cage bars are shorted.. 5. Simulation Simulation were carried out for constant v/f control of three phase induction motor using SPWM, THPWM and SVPWM techniques for closed loop system with full load torque, the modulation index, switching frequency and dc bus voltage are constant .The model of IM, SPWM, SVPWM and THPWM are build in matlab Simulink and the parameter of motor used is shown in Appendix I. 5.1 V/f control with closed loop and full load torque. Fig .10 and Fig.11 shows the speed and the stator flux of three types of modulation for IM with closed loop system respectively, at full load torque. Keeping the modulation index equal to 0.7 and switching frequency equal to 1500 HZ for all types. Table III compares the various performance details of SPWM/SVPWM/THPWM Inverter fed IM. Fig.12 and Fig.13 shows the variation of total harmonic distortion and fundamental peak of the output voltage with modulation index variation respectively. Fig.14, Fig.15 and Fig.16 shows the FFT analysis of output voltage for three types. The results show the SVPWM give lower harmonic distortion hence better output voltage. 5.2 Dynamic performance under reference speed variation. The performance of induction motor with SVPWM is studied with reference speed variation at no load condition. 5.2.1 Effect of a step change in reference speed. The speed reference is changed from 30 HZ to 60 HZ at load torque TL=0 N.m, the effect on elecrtomechanical torque produced by motor is shown in Fig.17 while the effect on motor speed is shown in Fig.18.

By change the speed according to the sequence [0 60 -60 0] the rotor speed of motor is shown in Fig.19 and the elecrtomechanical torque shown in Fig.20.As shown in curves the transient response need a time to settle at given reference speed . 5.3 Dynamic performance under load torque variation 5.3.1 Sequential changes in load torque at reference speed of 60 HZ. By change the load torque with sequence [0 20 10 20 0 ]Nm at reference speed of 60 HZ .Fig.21 shows the speed changes due to sequence change in torque ,while Fig.22 shows the change in electromechanical torque due to sequence change In load . 5.3.2 Step change in load torque at a reference speed of 25 HZ. By change the load torque from 0 Nm to full load torque 20 N.m, Fig.23 and Fig.24 shows the electromechanical torque and rotor speed respectively due to change in torque at reference speed 25 HZ. 6. Conclusions 1- The V/f control of Induction motor drive for closed loop system with SVPWM, SPWM and THPWM has been simulated using MATLAB SIMULINK. 2- The three PWM Techniques are compared in terms of THD, harmonic spectra, speed, and fundamental peak of output voltage and dc bus utilization. 3- It is observed that the SVPWM is the most efficient one because it produced less harmonic distortion in output voltage and higher dc supply utilization aside from complete digital implementation by a single-chip microprocessor. 4- The performance of IM is improved when SVPWM technique is applied. 5- The THPWM technique gives higher performance than SPWM technique when applied to induction motor. 6- The variations in motor speed and torque due to sudden change in reference speed and load torque are observed as expected. 7.
