The advantages and shortcomings of three-level voltage source inverters to be applied on locomotive traction electric drives are highlighted in relation to two-level ones. To protect wheels from slipping on rails, the control system is designed. The control system with protection from slipping uses system of direct torque control as the subordinated contour to produce control signals on voltage source inverter. The topology and principles of operation of both protections from slipping and direct torque control of traction induction motor with three-level voltage source inverters are described. The simplified structure of mechanical part of traction drive using basic and axle suspension is considered. The adequacy of designed control system is confirmed by means of Matlab, the results of mathematical modeling show a high convergence with the results of physical model of traction drive.

Abstract This article presents the direct torque control (DTC) strategy for the doubly fed induction motor (DFIM) connected to two three-level voltage source inverters (3LVSIs) with neutral point clamped (NPC) structure. This control method allows to reduce the torque and flux ripples as well as to optimize the total harmonic distortion (THD) of motor currents. The use of 3LVSI increases the number of generated voltage, which allows improving the quality of its waveform and thus improves the DTC strategy. The system modeling and control are implemented in Matlab/Simulink environment. The analysis of simulation results shows the better performances of this control, especially in terms of torque and flux behavior, compared to conventional DTC.

The article deals with investigation of electromechanical and energetic characteristics of traction electric drive with vector systems of direct torque control. As a controlled object the traction asynchronous motor ДТА-1У1, which is used to drive the trolley-bus is considered. At the present time the usage of traction asynchronous electric drives for town transport is relevant. Due to development of power electronic devices and microprocessor-based control systems it became possible to replace DC electric drives with electric drives with asynchronous motors. The article contains brief description of two different types of control systems: field-oriented control (FOC) and direct torque control (DTC). Principles of work for both systems are considered and the main advantages and disadvantages associated with the use of these systems are pointed out. The models of both systems for traction asynchronous electric drive, built in modeling environment MATLAB/Simulink, are given in this article for further comparative analysis. As the main quality factor of control total harmonic distortion (THD) is used.

<span lang="EN-US">The Nine-Switch Inverter</span><span lang="EN-US">(NSI) is a recently developed dual output converter. It can be used to drive two three-phase loads independently. As a substitute to two separate conventional voltage source inverters, the NSI has been, already, proposed in various industrial applications to reduce the number</span><span lang="EN-US">of semiconductor switches and its associated energy losses and drive circuitry. On the other hand, the Direct Torque Control</span><span lang="EN-US">(DTC) is a robust control scheme of AC motors, which consist of selecting proper state vectors of a conventional voltage source inverter. The NSI, having a different working principle from the conventional voltage source inverter and taking into account the varying influence of active space vectors on motor’s torque and stator flux, a Direct Torque Control is suggested in this paper to, efficiently, drive two induction motors independently, while minimizing the torque and stator flux ripples of both motors. Simulations results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

In these days, developments in the area of Induction Motor control is increasing significantly. Considerable advancements have been taken place in the area of Direct Torque Control (DTC), which is capable of providing quick dynamic response with respect to torque and flux. This paper presents a detailed survey on various latest techniques of DTC control of Induction Motor such as DTC-SVM with hysteresis band, DTCSVM with Model Predictive Control, DTC with sliding mode control, DTC with Model reference adaptive system (MRAS) et cetera. The simulation results are discussed for DTC-SVPWM topology and results obtained proves that this method has reduced torque ripple

Among all control methods for induction motor drives, Direct Torque Control (DTC) seems to be particularly interesting being independent of machine rotor parameters and requiring no speed or position sensors. The DTC scheme is characterized by the absence of PI regulators, coordinate transformations, current regulators and PWM signals generators. In spite of its simplicity, DTC allows a good torque control in steady state and transient operating conditions to be obtained. However, the presence of hysterics controllers for flux and torque could determine torque and current ripple and variable switching frequency operation for the voltage source inverter. This paper is aimed to analyze DTC principles, and the problems related to its implementation, especially the torque ripple and the possible improvements to reduce this torque ripple by using a proposed fuzzy based duty cycle controller. The effectiveness of the duty ratio method was verified by simulation using Matlab/Simulink software package. The results are compared with that of the traditional DTC models.
