Implementation of Speed and Torque Control of Induction Motor Drive using Space Vector pulse width modulation for Electric Vehicle Applications

Speed and torque control of an induction motor drive is a crucial aspect of many industrial applications, including electric vehicles. Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) is a widely used technique for controlling the speed and torque of induction motor drives due to its ability to generate high-quality voltage waveforms with reduced harmonic distortion. This paper proposes a novel technique for speed and torque control of an induction motor drive using Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) for Electric Vehicle (EV) applications. The proposed control method employs a feedback mechanism to maintain the speed and torque of the motor within desired limits. The system is modeled using mathematical equations and simulated using MATLAB/Simulink software. The results show that the SVPWM technique provides better control over the motor compared to conventional methods, resulting in smoother operation and reduced power loss. The proposed system is suitable for EV applications where precise control of motor speed and torque is crucial for efficient and reliable operation.
