Abstract
This paper describes step by step the modelling and simulation of the open loop scalar command for a three-phase induction machine with known parameters, which operates in motor regime. In order to change the electromagnetic torque and implicitly the rotor speed, in this paper the solution of applying a positive mechanical torque from outside the machine was chosen, without dynamically adjusting the supply voltage. The chosen mathematical model for the induction machine is the one described by Krause’s equations, written in a stationary reference frame. The simulations were done on the Matlab/Simulink simulation environment and the behaviour of the machine was monitored under the working conditions listed above.
