ABSTRACT In this paper an attempt is made to investigate the performance of SVPWM VSI-fed induction motor drive. The open-loop Simulink model of the voltage source inverter-fed induction motor drive is presented based on space vector theory. Simulation results are obtained for performance analysis of the drive under different loading conditions and are discussed in detail. Keywords: Induction motor drive, Space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM), Voltage source inverter. 1. INTRODUCTION Advances in power electronics have led to an increased interest in voltage source inverters with pulse width modulation control of AC drives. A number of pulse width modulation (PWM) schemes are used to obtain variable voltage and frequency supply. The most widely used PWM schemes for three-phase voltage source inverters are carrier- based sinusoidal PWM and space vector PWM (SVPWM). There is an increasing trend of using space vector PWM (SVPWM) because of their easier digital realization and better DC bus utilization [1-3]. Moreover, it gives a higher output voltage for the same DC bus voltage, lower switching losses, and better harmonic performance in comparison to carrier based sinusoidal pulse width modulation [4-5]. The space vector pulse width modulation of a three level inverter provides the additional advantage of superior harmonic quality and larger under-modulation range that extends the modulation factor to 90.7% from the traditional value of 78.5% in sinusoidal pulse width modulation. This paper focuses on SVPWM implemented on an induction motor drive. The model of a three-phase voltage source inverter is presented based on space vector theory. 2. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION Fig.1 shows the basic circuit for the performance investigation of VSI-fed induction motor drive using SVPWM technique. Fig.2 shows the simulation model for the performance investigation of VSI-fed induction motor drive using SVPWM technique. The SVPWM voltage source inverter-fed induction motor drive system consist of an input LC filter, a three-phase controlled rectifier, a DC link capacitor, a three-phase voltage source inverter, a squirrel-cage induction motor and an output LC filter for controlling the speed of the induction motor.

3. PERFORMANCE INVESTIGATION OF THE DRIVE A MATLAB/Simulink model is developed to examine the performance of the three-phase induction motor drive as shown in Fig.2. A three-phase squirrel-cage induction motor rated 3 hp, 220 V, 60 Hz, 1725 rpm is fed by a three-phase IGBT inverter connected to a DC link voltage source of 325 V. The firing pulses to the inverter are generated by the space- vector PWM modulator block of the SPS library. The chopping frequency is set to 1980 Hz and the input reference vector to magnitude-angle. Speed control of the motor is performed by the constant V/Hz block. The magnitude and frequency of the stator voltages are governed by the speed set point. By varying the stator voltage magnitude in proportion with frequency, the stator flux is kept constant.
