A hardware tool for explained power electronics control of induction motors

Abstract

This paper presents a digital controller suitable for an instructional laboratory in electric drives. A prototype has been designed specifically to meet the requirements of low cost and motivating education tool, and it contains all of the active functions required to implement the open loop control of induction motors. This approach develops the concept of "grey box" module where the details are built for convenience, but not hidden inside as a "black box". Introductory laboratory experiments are presented to demonstrate how this hardware can be integrated in laboratory classes to present the most important concepts as regards adjustable speed drives.

Plataforma De Ensino De Eletrônica De Potência Versátil E De Baixo Custo

“…Em resposta ao desafio de capacitar engenheiros a trabalhar com sistemas envolvendo Eletrônica de Potência, os cursos de Engenharia Elétrica buscam aprimorar a formação dos alunos por intermédio de mudanças curriculares e motivação dos alunos, empregando aplicações práticas que permitam desenvolver-lhes capacidade de medição e análise de sistemas reais [2]. Diversas universidades criaram plataformas práticas para ensino de eletrônica de potência [3,4,5].…”
