Overmodulation and field weakening in direct torque control of induction motor drives

During transient conditions, for instance during acceleration and deceleration, the inverter used in an induction motor drive normally operates in overmodulation in order to efficiently utilize the DC-link voltage. Beyond the based-speed, the flux is normally reduced proportionally with speed to ext...

description During transient conditions, for instance during acceleration and deceleration, the inverter used in an induction motor drive normally operates in overmodulation in order to efficiently utilize the DC-link voltage. Beyond the based-speed, the flux is normally reduced proportionally with speed to extend the speed range of the drive system.

In order to fully utilize the dc link voltage, it is important to understand the characteristics and performance of the drive system under these conditions.
