Estimation of the electrical parameters of a five-phase induction machine using standstill techniques. Part II: Practical implications

Abstract

This paper provides a procedure to estimate the parameters of a five-phase induction machine. The standstill time-domain test is used combined with the application of recursive least-square algorithms. Part I discusses the proposed technique. Part II focuses on the validation of the method. A five-phase machine has been obtained rewinding a conventional three-phase counterpart. Simulation and experimental results are shown. The effectiveness of the estimation process is experimentally analyzed using an indirect vector controlled five-phase drive.
