State Space-Vector Model of Linear Induction Motors Including Iron Losses Part I: Theoretical Analysis

This is the first part of a paper, divided into two parts, dealing with the definition of a space-vector dynamic model of the linear Induction motor (LIM) taking into consideration both the dynamic end-effects and the iron losses and its off-line identification. This first part specifically treats the theoretical formulation of this model, which has been expressed in a state form, so to be, in perspective, suitably adopted for developing novel non-linear control techniques, non-linear observers as well as electrical losses minimization techniques (ELMTs). Besides the formulation of the dynamic model in space-vector state form, a steady-state analysis is proposed, highlighting the combined effects of the dynamic end-effects and the iron losses on the main electrical quantities of the LIM.
