Multiscalar Control Based Airgap Flux Optimization of Induction Motor for Loss Minimization

Based on the induction motor model, considering the core loss resistance that accounts for magnetic characteristic saturation, a speed control approach is devised with an adaptive full-order (AFO) speed observer. The induction motor model analysis is done sincerely in a stationary reference frame. The control approach incorporates a flux reference generator designed to meet optimal operational circumstances and a nonlinear speed controller. The machine state variables are involved in flux generation and speed control rules. The performance of the proposed control strategy is formally studied by simulation and demonstrated through experiments. The technique exhibits fast convergence to the optimal flux level, reduces computational resource requirements, and enhances torque production and loss minimization accuracy. It eliminates the excessive flux demands compared to open-loop steady-state values, which will necessitate greater current levels without justification, resulting in an increased power dissipated. This optimum flux level minimizes induction motor losses for efficiency increments.
