Abstract
A Direct torque and flux control design for a sensorless induction motor, following a Lyapunov-based stator flux observer is presented. In this control scheme, the torque error signal and the amplitude of the stator flux reference vector are delivered to a PI predictive controller. The predictive controller also uses information on the amplitude and position of the actual stator flux vector and measured stator currents to determine the voltage command vector for space vector modulation inverter. In addition, a conventional PI speed controller is used to generate the torque reference signal. Using the fifth order model of the three-phase induction machines in a stationary two axes reference frame, a nonlinear stator flux observer is developed in order to estimate the rotor speed, rotor and stator resistances simultaneously. The stability of this observer is proved by Lyapunov theory. It is shown that if the persistancy of excitation condition is satisfied, the estimated quantities converge to their real values. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is verified by computer simulation and experimental results.
