The article introduces a linear space vector induction motor model for the PSpice circuit simulator. Circuit simulator software programs are widely used in the area of electronics, but these programs can be used to simulate power electronic devices and drives as well. Commercially available circuit simulators are usually missing motor models. Induction motor model in the circuit simulator should behave like a real machine, providing same response to the input as a real motor. The simulated current waveforms drawn by the motor model must be similar to the real ones with acceptable accuracy. That helps in selecting suitable switches for the drive. The space vector model developed here is designed for the SPICE family circuit simulators.
The properties of the linear space vector induction motor model introduced here are verified with experimental tests in sinusoidal conditions and also with a square-wave inverter supply.
