PSO Algorithm for Three Phase Induction Motor with V/F Speed Control

Abstract

Because induction motors are used in most industries, IM control is more essential, Optimization is used approaches are becoming more common for improving Three - Phase induction motor (TIM). In addition, the Volt/Hz (V/f) control is utilized to minimize the harmonics level of other control and modulation approaches. This study is about tuning the PI controller parameters for utilization in TIM. To optimize the speed response performance of the TIM, the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is used to adjust each parameter of the PI speed controller. Kp and Ki of the PI speed controller parameters are optimized for TIM operation with V/ f Control by designing an appropriate PSO algorithm. The PI speed controller's performance on the TIM is measured by measuring changes in speed and torque under-speed response events. In PSO, the PI controller performs well in terms of overshoot, settling time, and steady-state error.
