M-File Implementation of Vector Control for Asynchronous Motors

Resource Overview

This M-file implements vector control for asynchronous motors, providing adjustable parameters for practical applications with customizable variables such as speed and current references.

Detailed Documentation

Vector control for asynchronous motors represents a fundamental technique in modern motor control systems, implementable through M-file programming. This control methodology enables dynamic parameter adjustments—including speed regulation, current limitations, and torque references—to achieve precise motor operation. The implementation typically involves Clarke/Park transformations for coordinate frame conversion, PID controllers for feedback loops, and space vector modulation (SVM) for inverter switching. Beyond precise control, this approach enhances motor efficiency by minimizing losses, extends operational lifespan through optimized thermal management, and reduces energy consumption. These advantages make vector control a widely adopted solution in contemporary industrial drive applications. The M-file structure generally includes initialization routines, real-time calculation blocks for decoupling control, and protection algorithms for safe operation.
