 Abstract   This paper analyzes sensorless, direct field oriented control techniques that use saturation-induced saliencies for the estimation of flux angle in induction machine drives. Flux angle estimation based on saturation-induced saliencies relies on the fact that there is a known relationship between the position of the saliency and the flux angle being estimated. This paper first introduces a simple technique for measuring the saliency position under all operating conditions. From these experimental results and theoretical analysis it is shown that the position of saturation-induced saliencies are not fixed relative to any single component of flux in the machine and move significantly with changes in the operating point. This movement of the saliency position relative to the desired flux angle must be modeled for correct, sensorless, direct field oriented control.
