ABSTRACT


This research paper focuses on the mathematical model of DC motor drive fed from the 3-Ph converter and the design of the PI speed controller for its speed control. To evaluate the gain coefficients of the PI speed controller, Symmetrical Optimum criteria are proposed. The proposed criterion is easier to understand than other advanced control methods. Using this criterion the gains of the PI controller are obtained by developing the mathematical model of the DC motor drive. This controller can be easily implemented for real-time applications of keeping motor speed at any desired set-point speed under varying operating conditions. The speed performance using the proposed method was compared with the S-curve method in MATLAB. The simulation results, with constant operating speed, indicate that the proposed criterion provides superior speed performance than the S-curve method. A similar speed response can be obtained with the selected PI gains for variable speeds. Finally, a comparative study has been done to highlight the proposed method benefits.
