Reduction of torque ripple in DTC induction motor drive with discrete voltage vectors

Abstract

This paper presents а practical implementation of direct torque control (DTC) of an induction machine on MSK2812 DSP platform, and the analysis of possibilities for reduction of torque ripple. Basic theoretical background relating the DTC was primarily set and the obtained experimental results have been given. It is shown that the torque ripple can be reduced by adjusting the intensity of voltage vectors and by modification of hysteresis comparator, while the simplicity of the basic DTC algorithm has been maintained.
