Abstract

This study discusses about an exact and novel scheme for Rotor Field Oriented Control (RFOC) method in single phase Induction Motors (IMs) with two different main and auxiliary stator windings. In the presented technique, rotational transformations are introduced and applied to the single phase IM equations. It is proved by using these proposed rotational transformations, asymmetrical equations of single phase IM changed into symmetrical equations. As a result, with some modifications in the conventional field oriented controller, vector control of single phase IM can be done. Results are presented to show the good performance of the presented technique.

Keywords:

Exact and novel scheme, RFOC, rotational transformations, single phase IM,
