A virtual electrical drive control laboratory: Neuro‐fuzzy control of induction motors

ABSTRACT:An interactive software to simulate and to study the steady state and transient operation of distributed generation systems with a large number of elements is presented. This software can be an effective tool to give students better understanding of the behavior of power systems under various operating conditions, and can motivate them to learn more about power systems. It may also be useful for advanced users such as PhD students and researchers as they can implement their own algorithms and models, without the necessity of buying expensive licenses for commercial software. In addition, the software may well be used for teaching introductory courses into the analysis of network with high penetration of distributed generators. A detailed software description, comparison with similar available software, potential educational applications and future enhancements of this simulation tool are presented and discussed.

“…Oriented rather to virtual laboratories, but with immediate easy applications to activities in real laboratories, we can mention about not webCorrespondence to A. Pejuan (arcadi.pejuan@upc.edu). based software [29][30][31][32], and about web-based software [33][34][35]. Finally, there are many software learning tools fully oriented to virtual laboratories, but they can be also useful for complementing real-laboratory activities; for example [36][37][38][39][40][41], which are not web-based (although [37,40] are available through the Internet), as well as [10,17,42,43], web-based.…”

“…Additionally, Gokbulut et al in Ref. have created an attractive and very promising tool, which enables students: (a) to design neuro‐fuzzy systems for the control of induction motors and (b) to understand sufficiently the influence of neuro‐fuzzy system parameters variation at motor's performance. An instructive approach for teaching the basics of fuzzy‐logic based controller design steps for application in synchronous and BLDC motors has also been proposed in Refs.…”

The design of electrical machines is gaining more popularity in the last years especially in electrical engineering courses. However, commonly‐used teaching techniques seem to limit students' understanding and prevent the attainment of the learning objectives. The competence of this subject can be significantly improved when a practical approach based on the use of computer‐aided educational tools is followed. Thus, this paper proposes an effective and user‐friendly educational tool, which has been developed and successfully implemented in post‐graduate courses in order to facilitate the conception of brushless direct current (BLDC) machines design aspect. At first, a step‐by‐step design procedure is analytically described and then the main tool's characteristics and capabilities are also presented. Finally, its impact assessment has been conducted and the derived results revealed that its application could be extended to the design of various types of electrical motors and generators.
