Abstract
This paper presents the simulation method to control the speed of three phase induction motor by v/f method. Simulation model
for speed control in both open loop and close loop is shown here because these motors are the most widely used electrical motor
due to the reliability, cheaper cost and thew. Out of the several methods of speed control of an induction such as change of
number of poles, variation in frequency, variable stator voltage, constant V/f control, variable rotor resistance, slip recovery
method etc., the closed loop constant V/f speed control method is most widely used. Pulse width modulated inverter is the basic
requirement of the scheme. Here first a PWM Inverter is modeled and its outputs is fed to the Induction Motor drivesA MATLAB
SIMULINK MODEL was designed to successfully implement Open Loop V/f Control on a PWM-Inverter fed three-phase
Induction Motor, and the torque is observed to be constant for various rotor speeds. Then a MATLAB model for Closed-Loop V/f
Control on a PWM-Inverter fed 3-phase Induction Motor. It was noticed that using a Closed-Loop scheme with a Proportional
Integral gave a superior way of controlling the speed of an Induction motor.

I.INTRODUCTION
Three-phase induction machines are synchronous speed
machines operating at below synchronous speed when
motoring and above synchronous speed when generating.
They are comparatievely less expensive to equivalent size
synchronous or dc machines and range from a few watts to
10,000 hp. They indeed are the workhorses of today’s
industry. As motor they are rugged and require very little
maintaince. However, their speeds are not easily controlled
as with dc motors. They draw large starting currents,
typically about six to eight times their full load values and
operate with a poor lagging power factor when lightly
loaded.
2. OPEN LOOP STRATEGY
For the open loop control of induction motor the voltage
source inverter employing sinusoidal pulse width modulation
technique is used, the output of inverter is feed to second
order low pass filter prior to the motor as shown in block
diagram figure 1.1.
Fig 1.1 Block diagram of open loop method
As shown in above block diagram gate pulses for the
inverter is generated by comparing the sine wave and
triangle wave by the relational operator. whenever the sine
wave amplitude is less than triangle wave it generates the
output high otherwise low. For one leg of inverter the
positive group switch is feed directly from output of
relational operator and negative group switch is feed by
NOT gate of same relational operator. Similarly for other
two legs two more relational operator is used, in this way
total six pulses are generated for six switches of inverter.
Such pulses which are feed to inverter are shown in fig 1.2
below:

3. CLOSE LOOP STRATEGY
For closed loop control using v/f control of three phase
induction motor, the control strategy is made in such a way
that v/f ratio can be changed from 220volth/60 Hz to
1) 198Volts /54 Hz
2) 176 Volts/48 Hz
3) 132 Volts/36 Hz
First of all three phase sine wave is generated in such a way
that its magnitude and frequency is changes automatically
according to change in the circuit when required. Then these
sine wave is compared with the triangle wave with help of
relational operator and the six pulses for the inverter
switches are generated. Inverter's output is feed to the
induction motor via filter and line to line voltage from three
phase inverter output is taken whose fundamental
component is compared with the refrence voltage. The
difference in these two voltages is applied to PI controller. A
strategy is made in such a way that output of PI controller is
then used for changing the value of amplitude modulation
index which change the magnitude of sine wave and this
signal now decide the new frequency of three phase sine
wave also called refrence signal. Now new sine wave is
compared with the triangle wave for different V/Hz value.'
The complete block diagram which show the above said
process is represented below in figure 1.3
Figure 1.3: Block diagram for closed loop control of three-
phase induction motor
3.1 Generation Of Three Phase Sine Wave :
Sine wave is generated in such a way that its amplitude and
frequency will change automatically according to the change
in system voltage it is the reason here that we cannot use the
voltage AC source as we do in open loop method Thus sine
wave is generated by following system.

The maximum value of sine wave corresponding to
reference voltage is shown in Table 4.2.The corresponding
value of 'ma' is also shown in this table. The output of PI
controller is added in a constant value and the resultant of
two is use to evaluate new value of ma which is multiplied in
reference sine wave.

The selection of frequency for the generation of sine wave
with change in the reference voltage is implemented by a
program written in the 'Matlab function' of User define
library.
Here only the torqe speed characteristics having change in
v/f ratio from 220v/60Hz to 198v/54Hz at t = 1 sec is
shown in figure.

5. CONCLUSION
Speed of 3- phase Induction model is controlled successfully
both in open and close loop method. The PWM signals were
generated in controlling technique by comparing either a
triangular waveform with a sinusoidal waveform using
relational operators. An Induction Motor was run with the
help of a PWM Inverter for implementing the speed control
mechanisms and the various characteristic curves were
obtained. It was observed that there were a lot of transient
currents in the stator and rotor at the time of starting and
they took some time to settle down to their steady-state
values. Open-loop V/f Control was implemented using
MATLAB. Closed-loop V/f Control used a Proportional
Integral to process the error between the actual rotor speed
and reference speed and used this to vary the supply
frequency. The Voltage Source Inverter varied the
magnitude of the terminal Voltage accordingly so that the
V/f ratio remained the same. It was observed that again the
maximum torque remained constant across the speed range.
Hence, the motor was fully utilized and successful speed
control was achieved.

CONCLUSION Speed of 3- phase Induction model is controlled successfully both in open and close loop method. The PWM signals were generated in controlling technique by comparing either a triangular waveform with a sinusoidal waveform using relational operators. An Induction Motor was run with the help of a PWM Inverter for implementing the speed control mechanisms and the various characteristic curves were obtained. It was observed that there were a lot of transient currents in the stator and rotor at the time of starting and they took some time to settle down to their steady-state values. Open-loop V/f Control was implemented using MATLAB. Closed-loop V/f Control used a Proportional Integral to process the error between the actual rotor speed and reference speed and used this to vary the supply frequency. The Voltage Source Inverter varied the magnitude of the terminal Voltage accordingly so that the V/f ratio remained the same. It was observed that again the maximum torque remained constant across the speed range. Hence, the motor was fully utilized and successful speed control was achieved. 6. REFERENCES [1].
