Speed Control of DC Servomotor Using Chopper-Based PI Controller

Optimization techniques are increasingly used in research to improve the control of three-phase induction motor (TIM). Indirect field-oriented control (IFOC) scheme is employed to improve the efficiency and enhance the performance of variable speed control of TIM drives. The space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) technique is used for switching signals in a three-phase bridge inverter to minimize harmonics in the output signals of the inverter. In this paper, a novel scheme based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed to improve the variable speed control of IFOC in TIM. The PSO algorithm is used to search the best values of parameters of proportional-integral (PI) controller (proportional gain (kp) and integral gain (ki)) for each speed controller and voltage controller to improve the speed response for TIM. An optimal PI controller-based objective function is also used to tune and minimize the mean square error (MSE). Results of all tests verified the robustness of the PSO-PI controller for speed response in terms of damping capability, fast settling time, steady state error, and transient responses under different conditions of mechanical load and speed.

The environment friendly blessings of Electrical Vehicles (EV), human beings are becoming extra involved in the use of them alternatively than the usage of mechanical differentials. In electrical vehicles distinct sorts of electrical machines are used among them DFIM is used in this work. The challenging work is to design of a controller as the output of the motor has to match with vehicle input. So, far, most of the mentioned works have utilized Proportional-Integral (PI) controllers as the speed control. But, the negative aspects of PI controller are properly known, as its design depends on the specific motor parameters and the overall performance is sensitive to system disturbances. The fundamental goal of this paper is to replace the conventional PI controller by means of an IP controller which is successful of dealing with exceedingly non-linear DFIM motor for high performance application in Electrical Vehicle. The effectiveness of designed IP controller of an electrical differential for an EV system is evaluated through Matlab/Simulink software. In simulation work different road conditions for EV are considered. After the simulation the designed controller is found to be strong for the speed control application of Electrical Vehicle.
