Alternative implementation of vector control for induction motor and its experimental evaluation

An implementation of vector control for induction motors is presented, where there is no need for information concerning the rotor flux position and matrix transformations. It shows how the stator reference phase currents can be generated and changed in real time from digitally stored sinewaves, so to achieve independent control of torque at constant rotor flux. Experimental evaluation of the new scheme is made for sudden changes in the load torque and for the step changes of the speed reference signal. The arrangement of a DC load system enabling sudden changes in load torque is also described
