 ARBITRARY REFERENCE FRAME

Reference frames are like observer platforms in which each

platform gives unique view of the system.

Reference frames rotating at an arbitrary speed-arbitrary

reference frame.

Other reference frames are particular cases of arbitrary

reference frames.

Particular cases of reference frames
o Stator reference frame model
Speed of the reference frame, c = 0
o Rotor reference frame model
Speed of the reference frame, , c = r
Angular position, c = r
o Synchronously rotating reference frame model
Speed of the reference frame, c = s = stator
supply angular frequency, rad/sec
Instantaneous angular position, c = s = s t

ROTOR REFERENCE FRAME MODEL

Speed of the arbitrary reference frame = rotor speed

c = r

Angular position c = r

Replacing the superscript c with r and c = r in the IM model

Rotor reference frame is useful where switching

elements and power are controlled on the rotor side.
