Abstract |
The effects on torque performance when using
small voltage vectors of Matrix Converters is investigated in
this paper. These vectors are used in order to reduce the
electromagnetic torque ripple which appears when Direct
Torque Control technique is used in Induction Motors.
Direct Torque Control for Induction Motors using Matrix
Converters is reviewed and it is pointed out the problem of
the electromagnetic torque ripple which is one of the most
important drawbacks of the Direct Torque Control. A new
look-up table for Direct Torque Control using small vectors
of Matrix Converters is developed. With the new look-up
table, the system will differentiate between small and large
torque errors and consequently reduce the electromagnetic
torque ripple. A comparison between the classical Direct
Torque Control using Matrix Converters and the proposed
method is carried out. Results which demonstrate the
improvement of the novel Direct Torque Control are shown. |
