Induction Motor is popular option for most of the drives applications. It has simple construction but complex control. DC motor like decoupled control of induction motor drives similar to Field Oriented control is possible using Direct Torque Control (DTC) method which is very simple control strategy compared to vector control. The DTC strategy is very useful for automobile and traction applications using IM but due to use of hysteresis band controllers, DTC has problems of torque ripples, variable switching frequency and poor low speed performance. Because of these reasons, DTC is used in such applications for high speed range and not for the whole speed range. An improved DTC strategy suitable for wide range speed control is suggested in this paper which is based on a performance index calculated on the basis of what is the value of THD of stator current, value of operating speed and switching frequency. It uses new five level variable width torque hysteresis band controller and two level variable width hysteresis band flux controller along with new hybrid model for stator flux estimation. This improved strategy is designed to maintain simplicity of conventional DTC and give better performance than it. This new strategy is simulated using Matlab/Simulink

Zero Voltage

With the rapid increase in the proportion of the installed wind power capacity in the total grid capacity, the state has put forward higher and higher requirements for wind power integration into the grid, among which the most difficult requirement is the zero-voltage ride through (ZVRT) capability of the wind turbine. When the voltage drops deeply, a series of transient processes, such as serious overvoltage, overcurrent, or speed rise, will occur in the motor, which will seriously endanger the safe operation of the wind turbine itself and its control system, and cause large-scale off-grid accident of wind generator. Therefore, it is of great significance to improve the uninterrupted operation ability of the wind turbine. Doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) can achieve the best wind energy tracking control in a wide range of wind speed and has the advantage of flexible power regulation. It is widely used at present, but it is sensitive to the grid voltage. In the current study, the DFIG is taken as the research object. The transient process of the DFIG during a fault is analyzed in detail. The mechanism of the rotor overcurrent and DC bus overvoltage of the DFIG during fault is studied. Additionally, the simulation model is built in DIgSILENT. The active crowbar hardware protection circuit is put into the rotor side of the wind turbine, and the extended state observer and terminal sliding mode control are added to the grid side converter control. Through the cooperative control technology, the rotor overcurrent and DC bus overvoltage can be suppressed to realize the zero-voltage ride-through of the doubly fed wind turbine, and ensure the safe and stable operation of the wind farm. Finally, the simulation results are presented to verify the theoretical analysis and the proposed control strategy.

Thermal Steady State

In this paper, we propose a method for the identification of the differential inductance of saturable ferrite inductors adopted in DC–DC converters, considering the influence of the operating temperature. The inductor temperature rise is caused mainly by its losses, neglecting the heating contribution by the other components forming the converter layout. When the ohmic losses caused by the average current represent the principal portion of the inductor power losses, the steady-state temperature of the component can be related to the average current value. Under this assumption, usual for saturable inductors in DC–DC converters, the presented experimental setup and characterization method allow identifying a DC thermal steady-state differential inductance profile of a ferrite inductor. The curve is obtained from experimental measurements of the inductor voltage and current waveforms, at different average current values, that lead the component to operate from the linear region of the magnetization curve up to the saturation. The obtained inductance profile can be adopted to simulate the current waveform of a saturable inductor in a DC–DC converter, providing accurate results under a wide range of switching frequency, input voltage, duty cycle, and output current values.

The Impact

Series connections of modules in cascaded multilevel converters are prone to power imbalances due to voltage differences on their DC side. When modules are connected to direct current (DC) sources, such as photovoltaic panels, the capability of withstanding power imbalances is crucial for generating the maximum power. In order to provide a possible solution for this requirement, this paper proposes a control strategy called Quadrature Voltage Compensation, which allows a wide range of power imbalances. The proposed control strategy regulates the power by introducing a circulating current between the arms and a phase angle in the output voltage. The impact of the circulating current and its effect on the phase voltage are studied. To highlight the features of the proposed strategy, an analytical model based on vector superposition is also described, demonstrating the strong capability of tolerating power differences. Finally, to validate the effectiveness of the Quadrature Voltage Compensation, simulation and experimental results are presented for a three-phase isolated multi-modular converter.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to design a more flexible and larger range of the dimming circuit that achieves the independence of multiple LED strings drive and can time-multiplex the power circuit. Design/methodology/approach The state-space method is used to model the BUCK circuit working in Pseudo continuous conduction mode, analyze the frequency characteristics of the system transfer function and design the compensation network. Build a simulation platform on the Orcad PSPICE platform and verify the function of the designed circuit through the simulation results. Use Altium Designer 16 to draw the printed circuit board, complete the welding of various components and use the oscilloscope, direct current (DC) power supply and a signal generator to verify the circuit function. Findings A prototype of the proposed LED driver is fabricated and tested. The measurement results show that the switching frequency can be increased to 1 MHz, Power inductance is 2.2 µH, which is smaller than current research. The dimming ratio can be set from 10% to 100%. The proposed LED driver can output more than 48 W and achieve a peak conversion efficiency of 91%. Originality/value The proposed LED driver adopts pulse width modulation (PWM) dimming at a lower dimming ratio and adopts DC dimming at a larger dimming ratio to realize switching PWM dimming to analog dimming. The control strategy can be more precise and have a wide range of dimming.

1. Humans can execute explosive movements such as jumping and hitting an object irrespective of the starting position from which these movements have to be initiated; in fact, variability of kinematic parameters has been shown to decrease in the course of the movement. 2. We address the question of whether it is necessary to adapt the stimulation pattern of the muscles to such variations in starting position or whether the stabilizing effect of intrinsic muscle properties is such that one single muscle stimulation pattern might be used for a wide range of starting positions. 3. Specifically, we address this question for maximum-height human vertical squat jumping, using an approach based on mathematical modeling and computer simulation. The stimulation pattern of the muscles is the input of the model and the resulting movement is the output. 4. The optimal stimulation pattern for a starting position in the middle of the range of starting positions considered does not lead to adequate performance for other starting positions in that range. 5. However, a muscle stimulation pattern can be found that does result in close to optimal achievement for a wide range of starting positions. This muscle stimulation pattern, which is not optimal for any specific starting position, may be considered as "control that works" as opposed to "optimal control." 6. The latter muscle stimulation pattern also leads to adequate behavior for "new" starting positions both within and outside the range considered.
