TY - CHAP A1 - Dominic, Antony A1 - Schullerus, Gernot A1 - Winter, Martin T1 - Optimal flux and current trajectories for efficient operation of induction machines T2 - 2019 20th International Symposium on Power Electronics (Ee), October 23 - 26, 2019, Novi Sad, Serbia N2 - This paper discusses the optimal control problem for increasing the energy efficiency of induction machines in dynamic operation including field weakening regime. In an offline procedure optimal current and flux trajectories are determined such that the copper losses are minimized during transient operations. These trajectories are useful for a subsequent online implementation.

This paper provides new insights in the efficiency optimized operation in dynamic regime. The paper proposes an anticipative flux modification in order to decrease losses during torque and speed transients. These trajectories are analyzed based on a numerical study for different motors. Measurement results for one motor are given as well.
