A speed tracking control method for induction machine is shown in this paper. The method consists of outer speed control loop and inner current control loop. Model predictive current control method without the need for calculation of the weighing factors is utilized for the inner control loop, which generates a continuous set of voltage reference values that can be modulated and applied by the inverter to the induction machine. Interesting parallels are drawn between the developed method and state feedback principles that helped with the analysis of the stability and controllability. Simple speed and rotor flux estimator is implemented that helps achieve sensorless control. Simulation is conducted and the method shows great performance for speed tracking in a steady state, and during transients as well. Additionally, compared to the finite control set predictive current control, it shows less harmonic content in the generated torque on the rotor shaft.

Abstract The steam generator of the sodium-cooled reactor is the barrier between the secondary and third loops. When the heat transfer pipe breaks, the water/steam will pour into the sodium and a sodium-water reaction will occur. The pressure in the secondary loop will increase and the rupture disks will burst to reduce the pressure. For the safety analysis, the maximum pressure is limited. For the long term, the pressure pulse weakens and the fluid flow tends to a quasi-steady state several seconds or minutes after leak initiation. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a model to investigate the dynamics of the secondary loop in the long term. The continuity equation, the momentum equation and the energy equation are used to derive the sodium flow model in the secondary loop. The sodium pressure and velocity are described by the one-dimensional differential equation. The lumped parameter method is applied and the differential equations are solved by the Euler method. FORTRAN language is compiled to develop the code. Critical equipment, including the steam generator, buffer tank, pump, rupture disks, and accident discharge tank are considered in the secondary loop model. The sodium velocity and pressure responses varying with time can be obtained. Compared with the data from the safety analysis report, the tendency of the sodium velocity and pressure is consistent. It is proved that the model is reasonable and effective to simulate and analyze the actual long-term effects of sodium dynamics.
