Description
Summary:Induction motor is the most used in industry because of its high robustness, reliability, low cost, high efficiency and good self starting capability. However is also has its own limitation which can be divided into three categories which is nonlinearity, complex computation and uncertainty system. The development of this project is to control the 3 phase induction motor by using Arduino Uno controller and also using Simulink in MATLAB. Arduino Uno also is a part from series of controller where it is connected to the PWM inverter and also connected to motor driver as to turn the 3 phase induction motor on. Voltage sensor is used as to detect any changes that are supplied from the motor driver to the induction motor as to ensure that the voltage that is supplied to a constant voltage value to the induction motor. This method is known as voltage control. The measured voltage is then compared with the desired reference voltage. The error that is produced is than corrected as to minimize the existing error by using a controller is design using Simulink in Matlab and than is interfaced into the Arduino Uno. Arduino Uno will create PWM signal that is sent to the PWM inverter as to improve the induction motor performance. Based on the result obtain shows that the error from reference voltage and measured voltage is minimized and the PWM that is produced also has differences in term of width.
