Abstract

Three-level neutral-point-clamped (NPC) inverters have been widely used in medium-voltage applications. In this paper, a three-level DTC (direct torque control) drive of an induction motor is presented. In order to keep the neutral-point-voltage balanced and simplify the complexity of vector selection, a virtual-vector method is applied. In addition, an adaptive full-order flux observer method is implemented and a high performance speed sensor-less DTC drive can be achieved. The validity of presented control strategies is verified by simulation and experimental results.
