Necessity For Controlling
Induction motors are the most widely used motors for
appliances, industrial control, and automation; hence, they
are often called the workhorse of the motion industry.
They are robust, reliable, and durable. When power is
supplied to an induction motor at the recommendedspecifications, it runs at its rated speed. However, many
applications need variable speed operations.
For example, a washing machine may use different speeds
for each wash cycle.
Historically, mechanical gear systems were used to obtainvariable speed. Which resulted in many losses so the recent
developments have overtaken mechanical systems by
electrical and electronics.

Principle of operation-:
Variable Voltage Variable Frequency (VVVF) or V/fis
the method of speed control in open loop.
This method is most suitable for applications without
position control requirements or the need for highaccuracy of speed control.
Thus the whole motor is therefore controlled by the V/f
characteristics of the induction motor used. The speed-torque characteristics along with the V/f characteristics
are further explained in detail of the three phase
induction motor.

Speed-Torque Characteristics
Of Induction Motors-:
The characteristics are drawnwith rated voltage and
frequency supplied to the
stator.
During start-up, the motor
typically draws up to seventimes the rated current.
This high current is a result of
stator and rotor flux, the losses
in the stator and rotor
windings, and losses in the
bearings due to friction.
This high starting current
overcomes these components
and produces the momentum
to rotate the rotor.

Contd.. At start-up, the motor delivers 1.5 times the rated torque of
the motor. This starting torque is also called locked rotor
torque (LRT).
As the speed increases, the current drawn by the motor
reduces slightly.
At base speed, the motor draws the rated current and
delivers the rated torque.
When the motor is running at approximately 80% of the
synchronous speed, the load can increase up to 2.5 timesthe rated torque. This torque is called breakdown torque.
As seen in the speed-torque characteristics, torque is highly
nonlinear as the speed varies. In many applications, the
speed needs to be varied, which makes the torque vary.

V/f Control Theory-: As we can see in the
speed-torquecharacteristics, the
induction motor draws the
rated current and delivers
the rated torque at the
base speed. When the load is
increased while running at
base speed, the speed
drops and the slip
increases. the voltage applied to the
stator is directly
proportional to the product
of stator flux and angular
velocity.

Contd.. This makes the flux produced by the stator proportional to
the ratio of applied voltage and frequency of supply. By
varying the frequency, the speed of the motor can be varied.
Therefore, by varying the voltage and frequency by the same
ratio, flux and hence, the torque can be kept constant
throughout the speed range This makes constant V/fthe
most common speed control of an induction motor
At base speed, the voltage and frequency reach the rated
values as listed in the nameplate. We can drive the motor
beyond base speed by increasing the frequency.
However, the voltage applied cannot be increased beyond
the rated voltage. Therefore, only the frequency can be
increased, which results in the field weakening and the
torque available being reduced.

Implementation-:
Standard AC supply is converted to a DC voltage by usinga 3-phase diode center-tap rectifier. A capacitor filters theripple in the DC bus. This DC bus is used to generate avariable voltage and variable frequency power supply.
A voltage source power inverter is used to convert the DC
bus to the required AC voltage and frequency.
The power inverter has 4 switches that are controlled inorder to generate an AC output from the DC input.
PWM signals generated from the microcontroller controlthese 4 switches. The phase voltage is determined by theduty cycle of the PWM signals.

Rectified input-:

Contd.. A full-wave rectifier converts the whole of the input waveform to
one of constant polarity (positive or negative) at its output. Full-wave rectification converts both polarities of the input waveformto DC (direct current), and is more efficient.
In the positive half cycle diode (D1) will be forward biased andhence will conduct; while diode (D2will be reverse biased and willact as a open circuit and will not conduct. And diode D1 supplies
the load current & this current is flowing through upper half of thesecondary winding.
In the next half cycle of ac voltage polarity reverse and diode(D2) conducts, being forward biased; while diode (D1) doesntconduct, being reverse biased. And diode D2 supplies the load
current .now the lower half of the secondary winding carries thecurrent.
The op-amp lm393 is a analog voltage comparator which givesout a 9v dc output for the microcontroller with ripples absent.

If LED 3 is on or set then it is active for Motor.

Then crystal oscillator is provided. There is an Auto On &Auto Off switch provided to work there. The three phaseinput is provided at Pin 10,11 & 12.
When the power is supplied to the circuit it checks the On &Off switches then if it is On then the Motor is switched on bythe PWM signals being sent by the Controller.
If the switch is Off then no connection is made to the motorand it is stop. The start and stop of motor depends uponrelay input signals.
