Palestine Polytechnic University

Workshop Program
8 lectures will be presented based on Matlab/Simulink :
1 Introduction to Matlab 2 Introduction to Simulink 3 DC-Motor Control design 4 DC-Motor Chopper design SimPowerSystems 5 Introduction to Stateflow/Statechart 6 Induction Motor Inverter Control 7 Synchronous Motor Modeling 8 Synchronous Motor Control

Two system applications (four quadrants electric drives of mechanical systems) will be used as "conducting lines" during the workshop.

? SIMULINK ?
SIMULINK is a complement of the MATLAB kernel, which gives a graphic interface to model dynamical systems using a block schematic representation. Using the numerous basic blocks available, it is possible to create simulation models without writing any lines of programming code. Specialized libraries Blocksets are available for specific purposes (Ex : SimPowerSystems, FuzzyLogic, DSP-Target ) The open architecture allows to extend the simulation environment by: - Creating customized blocs and libraries from MATLAB, Fortran, C or graphic representation, - C codes generation from Simulink simulation models Several tools are available for the signal analysis

Initializing the parameters of the motor

1- Create a M-file named DC_PM_motor_init.m

2- Run this M-file

The values of Ra, La, Ke, tf and kf are then stored in the workspace.
