Abstract
The multiphase induction motor can be a highly preferable choice for the EV application, where the reliability and safety of passengers are one of the major concerns. The main objective of this article is to design high performance fault tolerant control of five phase induction motor (FPIM) drive to enhance the dynamic performance under healthy, faulty and fault tolerant modes of operation under arbitrary open phase fault condition. First, a simple method of modeling open phase fault in any phase of the FPIM drive is proposed. The most frequently occurring open phase faults due to the power electronics switch failure in the inverters are considered for the analysis. A generalized method of modeling arbitrary open phase fault in FPIM drive using back EMF calculations in faulty phase is suggested. The developed method utilizes the same transformation matrix for any open phase fault such that the minimum modification in control strategy is required under fault condition. Thereafter, the control technique is detailed. The rotor field oriented control (RFOC) of FPIM with fuzzy logic speed controller is developed to generate optimal torque reference. The design of FLC is detailed with fine-tuned scaling factor, rule base and membership function to obtain robust performance of the drive under healthy and fault tolerant modes of operation. The complete RFOC scheme for 2 HP FPIM drive is built in MATLAB/SIMULINK incorporating fuzzy logic based controller to verify its performance. The comparison of transient and steady state response and robustness (to the load disturbance as well as fault) obtained using developed fuzzy logic based controller with those using conventional PI controller is presented to prove the efficiency of the suggested controller under various speed torque profiles. The effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy based fault tolerant controller for FPIM drive is validated using OP4510 controller based real time HIL simulator.
