Abstract

A direct torque control (DTC) of open end winding induction motor (OEWIM) with decoupled PWM is proposed in this present paper. In this approach the four level voltages are generated by two conventional two level inverters which are fed with the unequal dc link voltages. These two inverters are feeding the induction motor from either ends. However, the proposed DTC scheme does not require the sector information of the estimated fundamental stator voltage vector and its relative position with respect to the stator flux vector. Simulation results clearly demonstrate a better dynamic and simplicity in numerical calculations of the proposed method.
