This paper is interested in implementing and controlling a modified six-phase induction motor (MSPIM) when fed from a three-phase supply either via an inverter or with a direct grid connection loaded by a centrifugal pump. The main aims of using the MSPIM are to enhance motor reliability and reduce torque pulsation. A three-to-six phase transformer has been designed, implemented, and employed to enable the SPIM to be driven from a three-phase supply. It is preferable to use the three-to-six phase transformers integrated with three-phase inverter on using the six-phase inverter to generate lower values of harmonics and lower steady-state error of speed and reduce the starting current and because also it isolates the primary circuit from the secondary, and the cost will be lower compared to the design of a special six-phase inverter. Dynamic models of SPIM, three-to-six phase transformer, and three-phase variable speed drive are derived. Then, a scalar (V/F) closed-loop control of SPIM is employed, and the results are discussed. Fine-tuning of PID controllers is used to keep the motor speed tracking the reference value. A low pass filter is connected to reduce the ripple of voltage and current waveforms. An experimental setup has been built and implemented to check the possibility of controlling SPIM by a variable speed drive system fed from a three-to-six phase transformer. It is found that the proposed method can be effectively used to drive the SPIM from a three-phase supply.

Variable Speed Control

Optimization techniques are increasingly used in research to improve the control of three-phase induction motor (TIM). Indirect field-oriented control (IFOC) scheme is employed to improve the efficiency and enhance the performance of variable speed control of TIM drives. The space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) technique is used for switching signals in a three-phase bridge inverter to minimize harmonics in the output signals of the inverter. In this paper, a novel scheme based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed to improve the variable speed control of IFOC in TIM. The PSO algorithm is used to search the best values of parameters of proportional-integral (PI) controller (proportional gain (kp) and integral gain (ki)) for each speed controller and voltage controller to improve the speed response for TIM. An optimal PI controller-based objective function is also used to tune and minimize the mean square error (MSE). Results of all tests verified the robustness of the PSO-PI controller for speed response in terms of damping capability, fast settling time, steady state error, and transient responses under different conditions of mechanical load and speed.

Dengan exhaust fan, gas karbondioksida yang dihasilkan oleh engine diesel memungkinkan untuk dibuang dengan cepat sehingga tidak memenuhi ruangan dan membahayakan bagi setiap karyawan. Pengoperasian exhaust fan dilakukan sesuai jadwal pengetesan engine. Exhaust fan tersebut digerakkan oleh motor induksi 3 phasa 30 kW dengan putaran nominal secara konstan. Pada saat pengetesan engine dengan nilai aliran gas buang yang rendah, exhaust fan tetap dioperasikan dengan kecepatan nominal. Operasional motor exhaust fan dengan kecepatan konstan seperti ini akan mengakibatkan konsumsi daya listrik yang relatif tinggi dari pada motor dengan kecepatan berubah-ubah sesuai kebutuhan. Sebagai pertimbangan hasil perhitungan untuk engine C 18 Caterpillar kapasitas 831 hp yang sebelumya  membutuhkan operasional exhaust fan dengan daya 24,7927 kW nilai sama untuk semua model engine, setelah penggunaan VSD dapat dikurangi sebesar 14,35 %  menjadi 21,2343 kW saja. Penelitian ini bertujuan mendapatkan probabilitas hubungan antara konsumsi energi listrik, frekuensi pada variable speed drive, putaran motor induksi dan nilai aliran udara pada cerobong exhaust fan. Nilai aliran udara exhaust fan tersebut akan disesuaikan dengan nilai aliran gas pembakaran yang dihasilkan oleh engine. Analisa optimasi motor exhaust fan ini sedianya akan menggunakan Matematic Analysis dan simulasi menggunakan simulink matlab sehingga diharapkan ada solusi untuk melakukan penghematan terhadap konsumsi daya motor, kemudian bisa diterapkan dalam semua pengoperasian motor yang ada di perusahaan.   Kata kunci : variable speed drive, motor induksi, exhaust fan                                                                                                                                            ABSTRACT              The exhaust fan is a rotary blade device which produces centrifugal force to remove exhaust gas from diesel fuel combustion during a full load test. With exhaust fans, the carbondioxide gases that generated by the diesel engine allows to be disposed quickly so that it does not fill the room and harm to every employee. The operation of  exhaust fan is carried out according to the engine test schedule. The exhaust fan is driven by a 3 phase induction motor of  30 kW with constant rotation. When testing the engine with a low Exhaust Gas flow value, the exhaust fan remains operated at rated speed. Operational exhaust fan with a constant speed like this will result in relatively high power consumption of the motor with the speed of change as needed. Considering the calculation results for C 18 engine Caterpillar capacity of 831 hp which previously required operational exhaust fan with 24,7927 kW of equal value for all engine models, after the use of VSD can be reduced by 14.35% to 21.2343 kW only. This study aims to obtain the probability of relationship between electrical energy consumption, frequency on the variable speed drive, induction motor rotation and the value of air flow in the exhaust fan chimney. The value of the exhaust fan air flow will be adjusted to the combustion gas flow value generated by the engine. The optimization analysis of this motor exhaust fan will be using Matematic Analysis and simulation using matlab simulink so it is expected there is a solution to make savings to motor power consumption, then it can be applied in all the motor operation in the company.   Keywords: variable speed drive, induction motor, exhaust fan
