An additional control loop is proposed here and based on the mutual flux angle – the difference between flux angular positions of the IMs. The main purpose of this research is to minimize the energy losses in the common inverter leg by controlling the mutual flux angle, at equal angular speeds of both motors. Simulation and experimental studies were carried out and the effectiveness of the proposed control method was proven. The PLECS software package was used for the simulation tests. The laboratory prototypewas prepared for the experimental validation. All results were provided and discussed in this paper.}, type={Article}, title={Augmented speed control scheme of dual induction motors with mutual flux angle control loop}, URL={http://so.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/129532/PDF/art04_int.pdf}, doi={10.24425/aee.2023.147418}, keywords={dual-motor drive, induction motors (IMs), five-leg voltage source inverter (FLVSI), rotor angle control, sensorless control}, }
