Abstract :
It is demonstrated that an instantaneous quantity related to average reactive power can be defined for machines with three-phase sinusoidally distributed windings. Expressions for the flow of this quantity into the stator of an induction machine are obtained and interpreted in terms of the behavior of flux distributions within the machine. The results are used to devise an algorithm for tracking the rotor flux inside and induction machine without dependence on stator or rotor resistance and without need for motor modifications. Applications of this algorithm to a field-oriented control system utilizing a voltage-sourced current-controlled inverter is investigated. Computer simulations are presented to support the theoretical results.<>
