Abstract:

A robust vector control intended for a doubly fed induction motor (DFIM) mode is considered. The state-all-flux induction machine model with a flux orientation constraint is replaced by a simpler control model. The double-flux orientation leads to orthogonality between the stator and rotor fluxes, resulting in a linear and decoupled machine control and an optimal developed torque. The inner flux controllers are designed using the Lyapunov linearisation approach. This flux control is exponentially stabilised independently of the speed. Associated with sliding-mode control, this solution shows good robustness with respect to parameter variations, measurement errors and noisse. Finally, a speed controller is designed using two methods: the first with a PI controller and the second with the Lyapunov method associated with a backstepping procedure, especially employed for the unknown load torques. This second solution shows good robustness with respect to inertia variation and guarantees torque and speed tracking. The global asymptotic stability of the overall system is proven theoretically. The simulation and experimental results largely confirm the effectiveness of the proposed DFIM system control.
