Abstract

This work presents a simple speed control application for a DC motor in laboratory use. The purpose of this application is to maintain the desired speed on a generator operating on the same axis to the motor.

Two small laboratory DC machines of 1kw and 300W nominal power have been used for testing the controller. Close loop control has been applied by using appropriate speed encoder. The controller functions as a DC chopper and PWM signal is produced by an Arduino UNO controller. The nominal input voltage was 200Volt, so IGBT switching devices were used.

There are over voltage and over current protections and, moreover, a mode without speed metering is available (open loop control scheme). A detailed analysis is provided on the equipment and the techniques that have been used for the control of the power electronic device. The scope of this work was to plan and test the controller, in terms of energy efficiency and economical operation.

This study presents the critical results of the tests focusing on the best operational point and discusses the related conclusions. The controller’s operation was efficient in both low and high speeds that were tested.

Keywords
