Synchronous motors operate at a constant synchronous speed determined by the supply frequency. They require an external DC excitation source to start and synchronize the rotor speed with the rotating stator magnetic field. Synchronous motors can develop torque through a wide range of speeds and loads, and are well-suited for applications requiring constant speed operation or power factor correction.
Universal motors can operate on both AC and DC power supplies. They have series-wound armatures and field windings which allow them to generate high torque. On DC power, they run at a higher speed than on AC power of the same voltage due to reactance voltage drop. They consist of a stator with field poles and coils, and an armature made of skewed slots housing a commutator and brushes. Regardless of the power source, the motor produces torque in the same direction through synchronized reversal of the magnetic field and armature current. Universal motors are compact and lightweight but noisy, with efficiencies around 30% for smaller models. They are commonly used in appliances requiring variable speed control like fans,

This document proposes using a static compensator (STATCOM) connected to a battery energy storage system (BESS) to mitigate power quality issues from wind energy generation. Wind power fluctuates due to changing wind speed, which affects power quality. The STATCOM and BESS work together to absorb or inject reactive power and regulate real power flow to the load. Excess power generated during low demand hours can be stored in the batteries. This combination of battery storage and wind generation helps stabilize the output waveform and improve power quality at the point of common coupling.

Stator controlled induction motor driveganeshbehera6
This method of induction motor speed control varies the stator voltage while keeping the supply frequency constant. Reducing the stator voltage by 10% reduces the developed and starting torque by 19% and narrows the speed range at low slip. The motor efficiency is highest at rated speed and decreases for very low speeds. This method is suitable for speed control below rated speed as it reduces starting current and improves light-load efficiency but cannot exceed the rated terminal voltage to prevent winding insulation damage. Stator voltage can be controlled using an autotransformer or primary resistance in series with the stator winding.

This document proposes a direct torque control strategy for doubly fed induction machine-based wind turbines that can operate under voltage dips without crowbar protection. The control strategy generates a rotor flux amplitude reference to control the torque of the wind turbine and reduce stator and rotor overcurrents during faults. It also provides fast dynamic response. While the control does not eliminate the need for crowbar protection entirely, it can prevent the crowbar from activating during low-depth voltage dips. The direct torque control approach maintains machine connection to the grid and reduces torque oscillations during faults.

Closed Loop Speed Control of a BLDC Motor Drive Using Adaptive Fuzzy Tuned PI...IJERA Editor
Brushless DC Motors are widely used for many industrial applications because of their high efficiency, high
torque and low volume. This paper proposed an improved Adaptive Fuzzy PI controller to control the speed of
BLDC motor. This paper provides an overview of different tuning methods of PID Controller applied to control
the speed of the transfer function model of the BLDC motor drive and then to the mathematical model of the
BLDC motor drive. It is difficult to tune the parameters and get satisfied control characteristics by using normal
conventional PI controller. The experimental results verify that Adaptive Fuzzy PI controller has better control
performance than the conventional PI controller. The modeling, control and simulation of the BLDC motor have
been done using the MATLAB/SIMULINK software. Also, the dynamic characteristics of the BLDC motor (i.e.
speed and torque) as well as currents and voltages of the inverter components are observed by using the
developed model.

This document discusses electrical drives and power electronic converters used in drive systems. It begins with an overview of power electronics and why they are used in drive systems. It then discusses different types of drives including DC drives, AC drives, and the advantages of AC drives over DC drives. The document covers various power electronic converter configurations that can be used for motor drives. It also provides details on modeling induction motor drives, including scalar and vector control approaches. Constant V/Hz control is described as the simplest control method for induction motor drives. Issues with open-loop constant V/Hz control are discussed along with solutions like voltage boosting and closed-loop speed control.
Modern trends in electric drives involve replacing fixed speed drives with more efficient variable speed drives using power electronic converters and control. Variable speed drives allow optimizing motor speed for different applications and loads. Power electronic converters are used in electric drive systems to convert electric energy from AC sources like the grid to regulated DC or AC for electric motors. Modern drive systems use intelligent controllers and sensors for improved performance. Common electric motors used in drive systems include DC motors, induction motors, and permanent magnet synchronous motors.
Synchronous machines include synchronous generators and motors. Synchronous generators are the primary source of electrical power and rely on synchronous motors for industrial drives. There are two main types - salient-pole and cylindrical rotor machines. Synchronous generator operation is based on synchronizing the electrical frequency to the mechanical speed of rotation. The parameters of synchronous machines can be determined from open-circuit, short-circuit, and DC tests. Synchronous generators must be synchronized before connecting in parallel by matching their voltages, phase sequences, and frequencies.

IMPORTANT POINTS AND DEFINITIOS:
A converter is a static device, which converts fixed AC voltage with fixed
frequency into variable DC voltage.
A firing angle may be defined, as “the angle between the instant thyristor would
conduct if it were a diode and the instant it is triggered.”
A semi (or half) controlled converter is one quadrant converter where as a full
converter is two-quadrant converter in which, voltage polarity can be reversible
but current polarity cannot be reversible because of the unidirectional properties
of the SCR.
The average value of DC output voltage of 1 - φ half controlled bridge converter
can be calculated by,
(i) For R – load:
VO TH = (Vm/ Π) (1 + Cos α)
Where VO TH is the theoretical average value of DC output voltage
Vm is maximum value of AC input voltage and
α is the firing angle.
(ii) For RL – load:
VOTH = (Vm / Π) (Cos α - Cos β)
The value of Extinction angle β can be calculated by,
β = (Π + φ); Where φ = tan-1
(ωL / R)
The average value of DC output voltage of 1 - φ full controlled bridge converter
can be calculated by,
(i) For R – load:
VO TH = (2 Vm/ Π) (Cos α)
Where VO TH is the theoretical average value of DC output voltage
Vm is maximum value of AC input voltage and
α is the firing angle.
(ii) For RL – load:
VOTH = (2 Vm / Π ) (Cos α - Cos β)
The value of Extinction angle β can be calculated by,
β = (Π + φ); Where φ = tan-1
(ωL / R)
In converters if the source inductance is considered the load current will not
transfer immediately from outgoing SCR’s to incoming SCR’s.
B.V.R.I.T. Course File --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3
4. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Power Semiconductor Drives
“The period during which both outgoing SCR’s and incoming SCR’s are
conducting” is known as overlap period.
µ (Commutation angle) is the angular period of overlap period.
The average value of DC output voltage of 1 - φ full controlled bridge converter
by considering the source inductance for R – load can be calculated by,
VO TH = (2 Vm/ Π) Cos (α+µ) + (ωLs / Π) I0
Where VO TH is the theoretical average value of DC output voltage
Vm is maximum value of AC input voltage and
α is the firing angle.
µ is the commutation angle.
In DC series motors the torque is directly proportional to the square of armature
current where as in DC separately excited motors torque is directly proportional to
the armature current only.
In converter fed DC series motors the during the current zero period the output
voltage is equal to the back emf due to residual magnetism in the field, where as it
is equal to zero in DC separately excited drives.
