Design and Performance Analysis of a Five Phase Induction Motor with SPWM Technique

In this manuscript modelling and performance analysis of five phase induction motor (IM) with sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) technique is presented. Machines are backbone to the any industry to get more production. Three phase IM motors are majorly suffering with speed controlling and ripples in torque response. These drawbacks are cause to overall system performance is sluggish, poor voltage regulation and less efficiency. These problems are overcome much extent by adopting five phase IM. In this paper a basic SPWM employed to operate voltage source converter (VSC) fed IM drive is investigated. This SPWM technique mitigated ripples in torque response of IM and improved speed performance of the IM approximately near to synchronous speed. From the simulation results it is evident that proposed SPWM fed IM drive prohibits desired performance characteristics over the other well known PWM techniques in the literature. The simulation results are investigated in MATLAB/software environmental.
