From simulation to real-time control for DFIM drive

The advancements in power electronics and real-time control play a significant role in the global industrialization and energy conservation trends of the 21^st century. These developments are increasing the use of electrical machines in various applications. In this paper, the Dual Direct Torque Control (DDTC) associated with space vector modulation (SVM) is developed for a Doubly Fed Induction Machine (DFIM) operating in motor mode and supplied by two Voltage Source Inverters (VSIs). SABER software is used to validate the control strategy in a “pseudo experimentation” context. Experimental test results of the DDTC-SVM drive realized in Digital Signal Processor connected with the Field Programmable Gate Array (DSP-FPGA) control system are demonstrated.
