Loss Minimization Control of Induction Motor Using GA-PSO

This paper deals with the GA-PSO (Genetic Algorithm-Particle Swarm Optimization) based vector control for loss minimization operation of induction motor. It is estimated that more than around 50% of the world electric energy generated is consumed by electric machines such as induction motor, DC motor. So, improving efficiency in electric drives is important and control strategy for minimum energy loss is needed as one of optimal operation strategy. In this paper, vector control approach is suggested for an optimal operation of induction motor using GA-PSO tuning method through simulation.
