In this chapter, we will compare the performance of a multilevel direct torque control (DTC) control for the double-star induction machine (DSIM) based on artificial neural network (ANN). The application of DTC control brings a very interesting solution to the problems of robustness and dynamics. However, this control has some disadvantages such as variable switching frequency, size, and complexity of the switching tables and the strong ripple torque. A solution to this problem is to increase the output voltage level of the inverter and associate the DTC control with modern control techniques such as artificial neural networks. Theoretical elements and simulation results are presented and discussed. As results, the flux and torque ripple of the five-level DTC-ANN control significantly reduces compared to the flux and torque ripple of the three-level DTC-ANN control. By viewing the simulation results using MATLAB/Simulink for both controls, the results obtained showed a very satisfactory behavior of this machine.

The asynchronous or Induction Motor (IM) is one of the most widely used electrical machines in the world, due to the three following advantages namely 1.Their construction is simple and rugged 2.The absence of slip rings, commutators and brushes make it cheaper, and 3.It is also maintenance free compared to DC motors and Synchronous motor due to wear and tear of brushes, slip rings and commutators respectively. The Section 1 deals with the introduction of induction motor and Direct Torque Control scheme. Section 2 briefly discusses the types of Induction motor. Section 3 tells about the control strategies of Induction motor respectively scalar control and vector control, and also briefly explains about Direct Torque Control (DTC) method. The Section 4 discuss about the Types of Control Strategies for Torque ripple Reductions in DTC as well as the two proposed schemes namely 1.Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) for DTC-SVM and 2.Artificial Neural Network (ANN) controller for DTC-SVM respectively for IM and its results, The two proposed schemes uses Hybrid Asymmetric Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (HASVPWM) for switching the inverter. The Section 5 revels about the modern advanced techniques such as ANN and FLC based DTC.

Flux reversal permanent magnet machines (FRPMMs) have a simple reluctance rotor and a stator with armature windings and permanent magnets (PMs). Due to the high torque density and high efficiency of FRPMMs, they have been widely used in many applications such as electric vehicle, wind power generation, etc. However, the general design method of FRPMMs has not been established in books. Therefore, this chapter will focus on introducing an analytical design method, which allows for fast design of FRPMMs. First of all, the analytical sizing equations are deduced based on a magneto motive force (MMF)-permeance model. After that, the effects of some key performances including average torque, pulsating torque, power factor, and PM demagnetization are analyzed. Moreover, the feasible slot-pole combinations are summarized and the corresponding winding type of each combination is recommended in order to maximize the output torque. Besides, the detailed geometric design of stator and rotor are presented. Finally, a case study is presented to help readers better understand the introduced design methodology.

The direct torque control (DTC) was proposed as an alternative to the vector control in the middle of 1980s for AC machine control. This strategy bases on the direct determination of inverter switching states and offers a simpler scheme and less sensitivity to machine parameters. However, the variable switching frequency of DTC causes high flux and torque ripples which lead to an acoustical noise and degrade the performance of the control technique, especially at low-speed regions. In the objective of improving the performance of DTC for the induction motor, this work addresses the most important points concerning this issue. The reduction of high ripples, which are the major drawbacks, by applying a constant switching frequency using the space vector modulation (SVM) has been done firstly. Then, fuzzy DTC-SVM strategy with adaptive fuzzy-PI speed controller has been proposed. The results of all the discussed aspects of this chapter have been obtained by numerical simulation using MATLAB/Simulink software.

The main drawback of Direct Torque Control (DTC) or Direct Power Control (DPC) is non-constant switching frequency; this drawback can be eliminated by employing predictive DTC. The predictive DTC technique is employed without much complicated online calculations by simply implementing constant switching times for active rotor voltage vectors to reduce torque and flux ripples and achieve constant switching frequency. The predictive DTC strategy has been implemented for RSC of Doubly Fed Induction Machine (DFIM). The performance of the proposed control methodology is compared with the classical DTC method under various operating conditions such as step change in torque, continuous variation of torque command, and the performance of DFIM near synchronous speed. It is found that the performance of the proposed predictive DTC strategy of DFIM is quite good compared to classical DTC strategy.
