Abstract :
Simulated results of a microprocessor-based fuzzy logic motor controller (FLMC) are described. The investigation includes a motor stator voltage control scheme to minimize motor input power at specified speed/torque conditions, simulation of AC motor performance, and development of a FLMC for optimized motor efficiency. Simulated FLMC results compared favorably with other motor control approaches. Potential savings are quantified on the basis of the preliminary predictions of FLMC performance
