Space vector PWM control of dual three phase induction machine using vector space decomposition

The technique of vector space decomposition control of voltage source inverter fed dual three phase induction machines is presented in this paper. By vector space decomposition, the analysis and control of the machine are accomplished in three two-dimensional orthogonal subspaces and the dynamics of the electromechanical and nonelectromechanical energy conversion related machine variables are thereby totally decoupled. A space vector PWM technique is also developed based on the vector space decomposition to limit the fifth, and seventh harmonic currents which in such a system would be otherwise difficult to control. The techniques developed in this paper can be generalized for the control of an induction machine with an arbitrary number of phases.<
