Abstract :
The direct torque control (DTC) system is one of the favourable control schemes for AC motor drives since it has the important advantage that system performance is not dependent on the motor parameters except the stator resistance. However, if the stator resistance varies due to heating, the performance of the system will suffer if the stator resistance value used in calculating the stator flux does not match the actual one. The compensation for the effect of the variation of stator resistance then becomes necessary. This paper describes a fuzzy observer, which can estimate the stator resistance online, according to the actual stator current, motor speed and operation time. The fuzzy observer for stator resistance proposed in this paper is applicable not only in the DTC systems of induction and permanent magnet motors but also in other type of motor drive systems
