Abstract


The paper represents a model based  three-phase induction motor underlying field oriented control (FOC) system that receives updated values of the rotor resistance from a proposed mathematical model intended to estimate the rotor’s resistance based on the induction motor’s performance. The rotor’s resistance value is a paramount parameter in the field-orientation equations that control three-phase induction motors. This resistance value is subject to continuous variation due to temperature variation of the motor; hence, it has to be either estimated or computed using a mathematical model to guarantee the solidity of the field-oriented control (FOC) and its accuracy. Therefore, there is an urgent demand to develop a mathematical model to update the implication of the rotor’s resistance value for inclusion in the whole motoring process in time-based simulations. The proposed mathematical model depends on temperature variation of the rotor’s windings as well as on the convective heat transfer model. The proposed model has been implemented on an FOC controlled induction motor using Matlab/Simulink for validation. The results obtained illustrate the effects imposed by the rotor’s resistance variation on the performance and integrity of the induction motor.
