Induction Motor Parameter Estimation Using Harmony Search Algorithm

Abstract

This study uses the Harmony Search Algorithm to carry out induction motor parameter estimation (HSA). In order to maximize the starting torque and minimize copper losses in the stator and rotor, the parameters rotor resistance R2 and rotor reactance X2 are determined. For parameter estimation of an induction motor, both conventional and intelligent methods are being examined. It is then subjected to the harmony search algorithm to obtain maximum beginning torque and efficiency, respectively.
