ABSTRACT

Modern control of induction machines is a very challenging area of electrical engineering, especially when control is based on detailed machine physical and mathematical models. The correct transient state representation of an induction generator is a very complex matter because of the various electromagnetic and electromechanical phenomena involved in a detailed equivalent circuit. This complexity is mostly related to the dependence of the parameters on the frequency, transient mechanical and electromagnetic states, and degree of accuracy of the approximations included in the transient model.
