Download or read book Introduction to Industrial Motor Control written by Jay Hooper and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2009-06-15 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to Industrial Motor Control is written for anyone with basic electrical knowledge (practical or theoretical). It assumes no prior exposure to motors, controls, meters, or troubleshooting. Through a combination of text and exercises, the book exposes the student to the practical and safety considerations of working on motors and controls in an industrial plant. The typical voltages in this environment for motors are generally in the range of 110 vac single phase to 600 vac three phase. Students in community college programs, as well as beginning engineering students at four-year institutions, will find this book straightforward and filled with real world examples. The book is designed to be useful even in a very closed industrial environment where workers are not allowed in close proximity to voltages (i.e. using voltmeters, ammeters, or PPE). Under these circumstances, readers should still be able to solve or troubleshoot about two-thirds of all electrical problems they encounter since in these situations they would be using standard troubleshooting techniques and an ohmmeter with the power turned off.

Download or read book Applied Intelligent Control of Induction Motor Drives written by Tze Fun Chan and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-01-19 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Induction motors are the most important workhorses in industry. They are mostly used as constant-speed drives when fed from a voltage source of fixed frequency. Advent of advanced power electronic converters and powerful digital signal processors, however, has made possible the development of high performance, adjustable speed AC motor drives. This book aims to explore new areas of induction motor control based on artificial intelligence (AI) techniques in order to make the controller less sensitive to parameter changes. Selected AI techniques are applied for different induction motor control strategies. The book presents a practical computer simulation model of the induction motor that could be used for studying various induction motor drive operations. The control strategies explored include expert-system-based acceleration control, hybrid-fuzzy/PI two-stage control, neural-network-based direct self control, and genetic algorithm based extended Kalman filter for rotor speed estimation. There are also chapters on neural-network-based parameter estimation, genetic-algorithm-based optimized random PWM strategy, and experimental investigations. A chapter is provided as a primer for readers to get started with simulation studies on various AI techniques. Presents major artificial intelligence techniques to induction motor drives Uses a practical simulation approach to get interested readers started on drive development Authored by experienced scientists with over 20 years of experience in the field Provides numerous examples and the latest research results Simulation programs available from the book's Companion Website This book will be invaluable to graduate students and research engineers who specialize in electric motor drives, electric vehicles, and electric ship propulsion.

Download or read book Control of Synchronous Motors written by Jean-Paul Louis and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-02-07 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Synchronous motors are indubitably the most effective device to drive industrial production systems and robots with precision and rapidity. Their control law is thus critical for combining at the same time high productivity to reduced energy consummation. As far as possible, the control algorithms must exploit the properties of these actuators. Therefore, this work draws on well adapted models resulting from the Park’s transformation, for both the most traditional machines with sinusoidal field distribution and for machines with non-sinusoidal field distribution which are more and more used in industry. Both, conventional control strategies like vector control (either in the synchronous reference frame or in the rotor frame) and advanced control theories like direct control and predictive control are thoroughly presented. In this context, a significant place is reserved to sensorless control which is an important and critical issue in tomorrow’s motors.
