Abstract
This study presents the implementation and analysis of the modified six-phase induction motor (IM) that drives a centrifugal pumping system. The three-phase IM is modified to operate as a six-phase IM to enhance the torque pulsation and to increase the motor reliability. Dynamic models of six-phase IM are derived. A fuzzy-based procedure for fine-tuning of the PID controller parameters is proposed in order to sustain the motor speed at the predefined reference values. Added to that, a six-phase low-pass filter is designed to eliminate the undesirable harmonics contents. An optimized PID controller accomplished with a scalar V/f closed-loop six-phase induction motor control is presented and its simulation results are discussed. Pulse width modulation (PWM)-based simulation studies were employed for six-phase induction motor using MATLAB/SIMULINK software. The simulation results show that the PWM inverter reduces the THD for current and voltage waveforms and the overall performance of the modified six-phase IM is enhanced compared with the equivalent three-phase induction motor.

1 Introduction
1.1 Motivation
Generally, the field of multiphase variable speed motors’ drives has knowledgeable and extensive development of many motivating progresses that were reported in the literature (Levi et al. 2007). The dual three-phase IM connection, the typical construction of six phases IM, having two winding sets placed in stator shifted by 60 electrical degrees. The integration of dual three-phase IM for industrial applications grants numerous benefits over the conventional three-phase IM. These benefits are enhanced reliability, reduced magnetic flux harmonic, minimized torque pulsations, and reduced size of the static power converter (Lyra and Lipo 2002). Added to these benefits, another advantage of multiphase IM drives over conventional three-phase drives is the ability of continuous system operation at abnormal operating modes after the excitation loss of one or more stator phases (Kiani-Nezhad et al. 2008; Fnaiech et al. 2010). In addition, the dual three-phase IM generates higher operational torque compared with three-phase IM. The higher operational torque characteristic makes IM suitable in high power and/or high current applications, such as electric hybrid vehicles, ship propulsion, and aerospace applications. The six-phase IM is one of the best acceptable alternatives in industry application when high power industry applications are found. The recent trend in high power applications is to replace six-phase synchronous motor by six-phase IM as the latter weight is lower than six-phase synchronous motors at the same rating (Taheri et al. 2012; Renukadevi and Rajambal 2012; Nanoty and Chudasama 2012a, 2013).
1.2 Literature Review
There have been several attempts to develop multiphase IM which are characterized with high degree of reliability over three-phase IM (Lyra and Lipo 2002; Nanoty and Chudasama 2012b; Barrero and Duran 2016a, b; Kang et al. 2009). The six-phase IM windings are placed in the same stator of three-phase IM. The current per phase in the six-phase IM is reduced. Therefore, total power rating of the system is theoretically doubled as each set of three-phase stator winding is excited by a three-phase inverter. In 1969, Ward and Harner for the first time have presented the previous investigation of an inverter-fed multiphase IM and suggested that the pulsation of torque can be minimized by maximizing the phases number of stator (Sriram Pavan Kumar and Kalyan Chakravarthi 2016; Kundrotas et al. 2011).
A six-phase motor needs an input supply of six-phase voltage source inverter (VSI). To achieve the better output voltage for three-phase inverters, the sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) method, space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM), harmonic injection method, and offset injection method are extensively studied. The SPWM inverters are more flexible and easy to carry out. However, the waveforms of output voltage contain more harmonics resulting in reduced efficiency and fundamental component (Levi et al. 2007). The difficulty involved in the SVPWM inverter is increased for higher number of phases. A simple and better switching technique is needed for multiphase voltage source inverter which would overcome the complexity involved with higher number of phases (Renukadevi and Rajambal 2013; Lega et al. 2010).
In Renukadevi and Rajambal (2013), compared with their three-phase counterparts, multiphase machines with phase number n ≥ 5 have several advantages as lower torque pulsation, higher power density, better fault tolerance, etc. due to these advantages and the increasing demands on higher phases machines. In Kang et al. (2009), the magnetic motive force of stator is kept constant to produce smooth torque after one or more phases are open circuit. The nine-phase IM was designed for four-pole operation and it can also be applied to operate in three-phase, 12-pole configuration by rearranging the stator winding connections using the pole modulation technique of phase (Gautam et al. 2012). In Pant (2000), the dynamic and steady-state behaviour of a multiphase IM during faulty condition was analysed.
In Scuiller et al. (2006), analytical and finite element methods were developed for seven-phase axial-flux double-rotor permanent magnet synchronous machine. In Singh (2002), the multiphase IM drive research that was presented with concentrating on the analytical and technical attention was addressed towards practical realization of the merits of this new technology. Kim et al. (2003) improve the saliency of EMF-based methods by using feed-forward observer to estimate the rotor indication signals. The lagging properties of the state filter can be eliminated. The outcome is zero-phase lag assessment of the motion states.
In the literature, Volts/Hz control, flux vector, and vector control methods are developed for controlling the induction motors operation. The first method aims to maintain constant motor magnetic flux, and it is valid for control of an induction motor in the gradually varying and expectable load applications. The flux vector control method was developed to control the magnitude of the ac voltage, and vector. The third method is modifying the amplitude, frequency, and phase of the drive voltage. The aim is to generate modified three-phase voltage to control the stator current which in turn controls the rotor flux vector and current independently. The position of flux vector can be found by two ways, direct and indirect methods. The direct method uses sensors put in stator which increase the cost, size, and harmonics of IM. Hence, using the indirect method, this flux vector can be found by parameters and modelling equations of machine governing its performance. Hence, vector control method has gained importance (Abdelwanis et al. 2015; Abdelwanis and Selim 2015; Fatemi et al. 2014).
Developing the converter side for improving the performance of six-phase IM is presented in Azeddine and Ghalem (2010). In Nabi et al. (2011), a new structure is proposed for vector control of symmetrical six-phase IM based on the usage of three current sensors. The performance analysis of six-phase IM is developed in Mandal (2015). A modified multiphase IM with high starting current was suggested in Nagaraj et al. (2014).
Fuzzy logic is an efficient tool that is able to enhance the electrical apparatus in power systems operation. Numerous applications of fuzzy controller are examined in El-Sehiemy et al. (2017), Elhosseini et al. (2017), El-Ela et al. (2005), El-Sehiemy et al. (2013), Abou et al. (2010), Kudinov et al. (2017), and El-Sehiemy et al. (2015). Developing the fuzzy logic and sliding mode controllers to enhance the operation by achieving high-accuracy positioning of six-phase IM is presented in Fnaiech et al. (2010).The parameters of PID controller were scheduled using fuzzy logic tuner to enhance overall optimal system performance specified by a cost function (El-Sehiemy et al. 2015; Han et al. 2003; Xu et al. 2006; Ho and Yeh 2010; Xia et al. 2010; Zhao and Yuan 2011; Kumar and Daya 2013).

2 Modelling of Pulse Width-Modulated (PWM) Six-Phase Inverter
The PWM techniques and three-phase inverter are able to produce a variable V/F sinusoidal waveform to control the speed of an IM. A typical six-phase inverter is shown in Fig. 1a, Fatemi et al. (2014). The model of six-phase inverter is shown in Fig. 1b.
The analysis equations according to KVL are presented as (Fatemi et al. 2014):
Therefore, vno is computed from Eq. (2) as:
Combining Eqs. (1) and (2) leads to:
3 Six-Phase Squirrel Induction Motor Model
The six-phase IM stator and rotor windings in space are shown in Fig. 2. The machine is represented in the q–d-axis reference frame to avoid time-change inductances in the terminal voltage. The q–d-axis reference frame is fixed in the rotor, which rotates at ωr (Azeddine and Ghalem 2010; Nabi et al. 2011; Mandal 2015; Nagaraj et al. 2014).
The sinusoidal voltages of six-phase induction motor are expressed as:
The voltage decomposition d–q axes of six-phase IM can be reformulated as:
The q-axis flux and current component in stator and rotor are represented as:
d-axis flux and current in stator and rotor
The torque and speed are written as follows:
The electric torque expression is:
The mechanical balance equation of motor is:
The performance curve of centrifugal pump is modelled as (Renukadevi and Rajambal 2013):
The hydraulic power Ph and the pump torque can be described, respectively.
4 Proposed Design Procedure of Fuzzy-Based Control Strategy
The closed-loop voltage/frequency control method is characterized by its simplicity and good accuracy of motor speed. But, it is not applicable for systems requiring servo-performance or high response to large dynamic torque/speed changes. The proposed fuzzy-based PID control strategy constitutes two main tasks. The first task aims at estimating the motor speed while the second task emulates a closed-loop controller to preserve robust operation of the modified six-phase IM. Figure 3 shows the schematic diagram of the proposed closed-loop fuzzy-based control scheme for the six-phase IM.
4.1 Speed Estimation Procedure
The proposed speed estimator aims to evaluate the speed at economical costs and less complexity of the drive system. The estimation of the flux linkage of the machine, whatever the speed, is estimated as the procedure (Abdelwanis et al. 2015; Fatemi et al. 2014). Figure 4 shows the flowchart of the procedure of speed estimator on the basis of motor parameters and captured signals of motor parameters.
The d and q voltage components at the motor terminals of the stator side can be expressed as:
The flux derivative component can be computed from,
The flux component can be computed from,
The estimated speed can be calculated from,
where:
4.2 Design of Closed-Loop Control System
To enhance the performance of system, a closed-loop V/f control was investigated. In the proposed method, the speed estimator of the motor is employed. The estimated motor speed is considered as the input signal of the closed-loop controller. The estimated speed is compared with the reference speed to obtain the error signal. The magnitude error signal and its sign can be calculated from the difference between the actual and reference values of the speed as:
Based on the error of speed, the PID controller generates the corrected motor stator frequency deviation to compensate perfectly the raised error. In the V/f closed-loop control application, the feedback speed signal is obtained from the motor parameters, measuring the currents and voltages.The design of PID controller is required in order to determine the three coefficients: Kp, Ki, Kd.
where, Ki= Kp/Ti and Kd= Kp. Td in which Ti is the integral time constant and Td is derivative time constant. PID controller can be defined in Laplace form as:
The PID is the primary controller and fuzzy system as a secondary controller controls the PID parameters. Two signals called speed error and change of error is brought in the fuzzy block inputs and then resulting the tuned PID coefficients. The tuned PID leads to the control signal and delivers it to the inverter. According to Eqs. (37)–(43), the parameters Kp and Kd have been determined in the range of maximum and minimum from the tests. For convenience, by using the following relation of Kp and Kd they are normalized between 0 and 1:
The fuzzy inputs are e(t) and \(\dot{e}(t)\) and the outputs are K′p, K′d, and α. Then, fuzzified PID coefficients are modelled as:
Figure 5 shows the fuzzy-based procedure for the PID parameters to obtain the robust control signal.
4.3 Fuzzy PID Parameters
The variables e(t) and de(t) are modelled in the fuzzy environment to fuzzy variables. The fuzzy membership functions are developed for input and output variables in fuzzy domain that have been chosen as shown in Figs. 6 and 7. The universe of discourse of all the input is divided into seven overlying fuzzy sets. The operation range of all the output (Kp, Kd) is chosen as shown in Fig. 7. Each universe of discourse is divided into two overlapped fuzzy sets. The universe of discourse of the output (α) is established by four overlapping fuzzy sets. Each fuzzy variable has degree of membership (μ). The membership degree belongs to the range [0, 1]. The rule bases for three fuzzy parameter tuners, e.g. kp, kd, and α, are shown in Table 1.
5 Applications
5.1 Simulated Cases
To carry out the proposed procedure for speed estimator, the MATLAB/Simulink is adopted for modelling the combined modified three-phase induction motor to work as six-phase IM-pumping system. Four studied cases can be classified as shown in Table 2 to simulate sequential operating condition. The speed controller is working with the aid of the proposed fuzzy PID mechanism. The six-phase IM parameters are recorded in Table 3.
5.2 Simulation Results
Figure 8 shows the speed variation for conventional PID (CPID) and fuzzy PID (FPID) controllers. It has cleared the effectiveness of the estimation procedure to identify the motor speed. The speed for both cases is close to the actual speed. The FPID controller has better performance in terms of the rise time and steady-state error. Figure 9 shows the pumping torque variation for the four studied cases. The closeness between the estimated senseless speeds with actual mechanical speed was clear. The total harmonic distortions for voltage and current are presented in Figs. 10 and 11, respectively. Figure 12 represents the applied voltage–time characteristics for the studied cases. Figure 13 shows clearly that the stator current in the first period increases rapidly to its maximum value at the starting instant. It was reduced to its rated value in the second period (Case 2). The torque speed characteristics for motor and pump at 2800 and 2000 rpm are presented in Fig. 14.
Figure 15 shows that Kp is tracking with speed change as follows, in the second period 0.366, in third period it is increased to 0.3674, in the fourth period it is 0.367, Ki decreases with speed decrease, in the second period it is 0.0851, in the third period it increased to 0.082, in the fourth period it is 0.0848, and Kd increases with speed decrease, in the second period it is 0.0042, in the third period it increased to 0.00,435, and in the fourth period it is 0.0043.
Table 4 shows an assessment study for the proposed fuzzy PID (FPID) controller compared with the conventional PID (CPID) controller, which is based on trial and error. From this table, the following benefits of fuzzy PID controller can be summarized, compared with the conventional one:
-

The use of FPID controller leads to decrease in the speed overshot and the corresponding steady-state error for cases 2–4.
-
(2)
The current is reduced by 33, 25, and 15% for Case 2–4, respectively, with the proposed FPID controller.
-
(3)
The highest total harmonic distortion levels of current signal for cases 2–4 are 4.8, 0.9, and 0.28%. These THDI levels are located within the permissible harmonic limitations.
-
(4)
The estimated speed using the proposed estimation procedure is very close to the actual speed for all studied cases, while the conventional estimator is far from the true speed with errors reaching to 5–30% for different case studies.
-
(5)
The proposed FPID improves the rise time compared with CPID controllers in the range 2.5–25%.
6 Conclusions
