Abstract
This paper aims at analysis of an operation of a doubly-fed induction motor (DFIM). The paper mainly focuses on the soft start method for the DFIM based on stator flux vector control and the conventional topology without either circuit reconfiguration or change in the control methods. Likewise, the details about reactive power control are also discussed. With the proposed method, the DFIM can start from standstill to any speed by controlling the machine-side converter (MSC). The computer simulation is performed to a 5 kW wound rotor induction motor using PLECS software. The simulation results have successfully validated that the DFIM can operate from standstill to any speed with only a single circuit configuration and a control scheme.
