Direct torque control of three Phase induction motor using matlab

Induction machines are widely employed in industries due to their rugged structure, high maintainability and economy than DC motors. There has been constant development in the induction motor drive system and their implementation in industrial applications. The improvement of switching speed of power electronic devices has enabled control techniques which possess high switching frequency and feasibility of high efficiency drive systems. In this pretext, Direct Torque Control (DTC) was introduced to obtain quick and better dynamic torque response. The DTC scheme in its basic configuration comprises torque and flux estimator DTC controller, stator voltage vector selector and voltage source inverter. Direct Torque Control of induction motor has increasingly become the best alternative to Field- Oriented Control methods. The performance of an induction motor under the classical Direct Torque Control method and improved scheme have been studied and confirmed by simulation using MATLAB .
