In this paper speed estimation methods for low cost, variable frequency induction motor drives are investigated. Such methods are required to minimize the computational effort and show little parameter dependence. Existing methods have limitations regarding the speed range or are applicable only if the motor size is such that certain requirements are met. Two methods described in the literature are considered. Three new methods of speed estimation are developed to improve their performance. The model used for each estimation method is described. Their computational requirements are evaluated. To asses the speed estimation methods, load tests are performed on 3 different motors rated at 1.1kW, 2.2 kW and 4 kW. The tests are performed by driving the motors between 10 to 70Hz, at 10 Hz steps. Each estimation method is modeled using MATLAB. Voltage and current data obtained during the tests are used to predict the motor speed at different load levels. Investigation of the findings indicates that one proposed approach promises good performance for a wide frequency range and for all the motor sizes. However, it is found that very low frequency (about 10 Hz or less) predictions need further attention.

Detection of some parameters of induction motors a proposal and its verification Özlü Ertan, Hatice Gülçin; Colak, Baris (2007-11-30) This paper describes a novel approach for offline stator leakage inductance estimation method that can be used for self-tuning of induction motor drives. The paper briefly describes the theory behind the approach. The proposed method is based on applying a DC voltage to the motor windings and measuring the DC current that flows in the circuit over a short interval of time. The measured variables are DC quantities and relatively noise free as compared to some other available methods. The proposed approach is...
Calculation of parameters of single-phase PM motor for design optimization Ertan, Hulusi Bülent; Capolino, GA (2005-09-01) This paper presents methods of calculation of parameters of single-phase permanent-magnet (SPPM) motor, in terms of motor dimensions and material properties, which are utilized in the dynamic model of the motor. The intention of the study is to develop means of SPPM performance calculations, which lend themselves to be employed within a mathematical design optimization approach. The calculated parameters are compared with measured values and are shown to be accurate for the purpose of the study.
Determination of rotor slot number of an induction motor using an external search coil Keysan, Ozan; Ertan, Hulusi Bülent (null; 2009-12-01) This paper describes determination of the number rotor slots of an induction motor from the induced emf in an external search coil. This information is needed in prediction of motor speed from the external search coil induced voltage. The approach is based on identifying saliency harmonics and rotor slot harmonics, via FFT analysis of the external search coil emf. The proposed approach is tested on an induction motor driven by the mains supply. The experiments are repeated with a PWM supply. It is shown tha...
Calculation of the damping constant and the order parameter for the lattice mode in ferroelectric PbTiO3 Kiraci, A.; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (2013-07-25) The temperature dependences of the damping constant and the order parameter are calculated for the lattice mode of E (1TO) in PbTiO3 using the experimental data by the pseudospin- phonon coupled model and the enrgy fluctuation model. Calculation of the damping constant of soft mode is performed in the temperature range of 400- 490 degrees C close to the ferroelectric- paraelectric transition (T-C= 493 degrees C) in PbTiO3. By relating the frequency to the order parameter, the temperature dependence of the R...
A novel approach to detection of some parameters of induction motors Özlü Ertan, Hatice Gülçin; Colak, Baris (2007-05-05) This paper describes a novel approach for offline stator leakage inductance and online stator resistance estimation that can be used for self-tuning of induction motor drives. The paper briefly describes the theory behind the approach. The proposed methods are experimentally tested on an industrial induction motor and also tested on a washing machine motor designed for variable speed operation. Test results are given and the robustness of the approach is illustrated.
