<span>This work is dedicated to the study of an improved direct torque control of the doubly fed induction motor (DFIM). The control method adopts direct torque control 'DTC' because of its various advantages like the ease of implementation which allows a good performance at transient and steady state without PI regulators and rotating coordinate transformations. To do this, the modeling of the motor is performed. Subsequently, an explanation of the said command is spread out as well as the principle of adjusting the flux and the electromagnetic torque according to the desired speed. Then, the estimation method of these two control variables will be presented as well as the adopted switching table of the hysteresis controller model used based on the model of the multilevel inverters. Finally, the robustness of the developed system will be analyzed with validation in Matlab/Simulink environment to illustrate the performance of this control.</span>

This article presents 24 sectors direct torque control (DTC) with fuzzy hysteresis comparators for the doubly-fed induction motor (DFIM) using a three-level neutral point clamped (NPC) inverter. The designed DTC technique of the DFIM combines the advantages of the DTC strategy and fuzzy logic controller. The reaching conditions, stability, and robustness of the DFIM with the designed DTC technique are guaranteed. The designed DTC technique is insensitive to uncertainties, including parameter variations and external disturbances in the whole control process. Finally, the designed DTC technique with fuzzy hysteresis comparators is used to regulate the electromagnetic torque and the flux of the DFIM fed by the three-level NPC inverter and confirms the validity of the designed DTC technique. Results of simulations containing tests of robustness and tracking tests are presented.

Abstract This article presents the direct torque control (DTC) strategy for the doubly fed induction motor (DFIM) connected to two three-level voltage source inverters (3LVSIs) with neutral point clamped (NPC) structure. This control method allows to reduce the torque and flux ripples as well as to optimize the total harmonic distortion (THD) of motor currents. The use of 3LVSI increases the number of generated voltage, which allows improving the quality of its waveform and thus improves the DTC strategy. The system modeling and control are implemented in Matlab/Simulink environment. The analysis of simulation results shows the better performances of this control, especially in terms of torque and flux behavior, compared to conventional DTC.

Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) is the most popular controller used in automatic systems, because of its robustness, ability to adapt the behaviors of the system, making them converge toward its optimum. These advantages are valid only in the case of the linear systems, as they present poor robustness in nonlinear systems. For that reason, many solutions are adopted to improve the PID robustness of the nonlinear systems. The optimization algorithm presents an efficient solution to generate the optimums PID gains adapting to the system’s nonlinearity. The regulation speed in the Direct Torque Control (DTC) is carried out by the PID controller, which caused many inconveniences in terms of speed (overshoot and rejection time), fluxes, and torque ripples. For that, this work describes a new approach for DTC of the Doubly Fed Induction Motor (DFIM) powered by two voltage inverters, using a PID controller for the regulation speed, based on a Genetic Algorithm (GA), which has been proposed for adjustment and optimizing the parameters of the PID controller, using a weighted combination of objective functions. To overcome the disadvantages cited at the beginning, the new hybrid approach GA-DTC has the efficiency to adapt to the system’s nonlinearity. This proposed strategy has been validated and implemented on Matlab/Simulink, which is attributed to many improvements in DFIM performances, such as limiting speed overshoot, reducing response time and the rate of Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of the stator and rotor currents, and minimizing the rejection time of speed and amplitude of the torque and flux ripples.
