Description

The ACIM Slip Speed Estimator block computes the mechanical slip speed (difference between the synchronous speed and rotor speed) of the induction motor.

The block accepts the reference values of d- and q-axis currents and outputs the computed slip speed of the induction motor.

Equations

These equations describe the utilization of the slip speed value for field-oriented control (FOC) of the induction motor:

${\tau }_{\text{r}}= \left(\frac{L_{\text{r}}}{R_r}\right)$

${\omega }_{\text{e\_slip}}= \left(\frac{L_{\text{m}}\cdot i_{\text{sq}}^{ref}}{{\tau }_{\text{r}}\cdot {\lambda }_{\text{rd}}}\right)$

${\omega }_e= {\omega }_r+{\omega }_{e\text{\_}slip}$

$${\theta }_e= {\displaystyle \int {\omega }_e\cdot dt}={\displaystyle \int ({\omega }_r+{\omega }_{e\text{\_}slip})}\cdot dt={\theta }_r+{\theta }_{slip}$$

If we keep the rotor flux as constant and the d-axis is aligned to the rotor flux reference frame, then we can imply:

${\lambda }_{\text{rd}}=L_m{i}_{sd}$

This block implements the preceding calculations as:

${\omega }_{slip}= \left(\frac{1}{p}\right)\left(\frac{1}{{\tau }_{\text{r}}}\right)\left(\frac{i_{sq}^{ref}}{i_{sd}^{ref}}\right)$

For detailed set of equations and assumptions, see Mathematical Model of Induction Motor.

where:

• ${\omega }_{\text{e\_slip}}$ is the electrical slip speed of the rotor (Radians/ sec).

• ${\omega }_{\text{slip}}$ is the mechanical slip speed of the rotor (Radians/ sec).

• ${\omega }_e$ is the electrical speed corresponding to frequency of stator voltages (Radians/ sec).

• $${\omega }_m$$ is the rotor mechanical speed (Radians/ sec).

• ${\omega }_r$ is the rotor electrical speed (Radians/ sec).

• $L_{\text{m}}$ is the magnetizing inductance of the motor (Henry).

• $$R_r$$ is the rotor resistance referred to stator (Ohms).

• $i_{sd}^{ref}$ and $i_{sq}^{ref}$ are the reference stator d- and q-axis currents (Amperes).

• ${\tau }_{\text{r}}$ is the rotor time constant (sec).

• ${\lambda }_{rd}$ is the d-axis flux linkage of the rotor (Weber).

Examples

Field-Oriented Control of Induction Motor Using Speed Sensor

Implements the field-oriented control (FOC) technique to control the speed of a three-phase AC induction motor (ACIM). The FOC algorithm requires rotor speed feedback, which is obtained in this example by using a quadrature encoder sensor. For details about FOC, see Field-Oriented Control (FOC).
