Purpose. Working out of technique of synthesizing statistically optimal controllers of induction electric drives with frequency scalar control operating under stochastic loads. Methodology. It is shown, that one of the ways of increasing the energy efficiency of induction electric drives at random changes of loads is to create closed systems of electric drives with statistically optimal regulators that would take into account the stochastic nature of the disturbances and acted as filters of occasional high frequency fluctuations.

Introduction. Wide class of induction electric drives including those used in agricultural mechanisms, in housing, in construction have load torque changing at random laws. They are drives of mechanisms as grain crushers, shredders, granulators, mixers, conveyors and more. At random changes since the current electric load, speed and electromagnetic torque of induction motor (IM) are also changed by random laws.
Stochastic character changes perturbation of electric greatly impairs their performance, requires overstatement installed capacity of motors, causing shocks in the mechanical parts of the drive makes the current surge in the motor and networks that worsens the quality of energy consumption and increases power loss, reduced quality regulation drives increases the likelihood of overload induction motor and its failure, makes it impossible for the realization of optimal modes of energy consumption in electric closed systems, such as «frequency converter -induction motor», «voltage converter - induction motor».
The goal of the work is to develop methods of statistically optimum synthesis of regulators of induction electric drives with frequency converters at random perturbations for mechanisms that do not require speed control.
Problem definition. One of the ways of increasing the energy efficiency of induction electric drives at random character of changes of loads is to create closed systems of electric statistically optimal regulators that would take into account the stochastic nature of the disturbances and acted as filters occasional high load fluctuations. The structure of such controls depends on the statistical characteristics of stochastic loads -correlation function and spectral density.
The problem of optimizing energy consumption in closed induction electric drive with frequency converters at a static moment load is sufficiently developed in Ukraine and abroad [1-3]. At the same time poorly investigated processes in such systems in dynamic mode at a variable for process cycle time of loading, including random law. In this mode, the minimum loss in dynamic mode with loads of intensive change at random by law, meets the criterion of minimum mean square error of optimal parameter adjustment. In the case of frequency controlled electric drive such parameter is the optimum rotor flux. This can be considered two types of frequency control of IM - scalar and vector.

When vector control possible direct regulation of the rotor flux through the separation process and flow control point. But high quality filtration components load depends on the quality of stabilization flux path that is difficult to implement frequency converters with voltage source properties because of the electromagnetic connection between circuits regulating moment and flux [4].
Based on these reasons, this work as an example of the synthesis of statistically optimal system is considered «frequency converter - induction motor» (FC - IM) with scalar control at a constant preset speed.
We know that in order to ensure minimum power losses in the induction motor by changing the static load should be regulated optimal flux linkage, which is defined by the formula
m = m

where APconstn are the nominal losses in motor steel;
APvarn are the nominal losses in motor copper; Wn is the
nominal motor rotor flux linkage; I n is the nominal magnetization current; I2n, I2 are the nominal and current value of the rotor currents; fn, f are the nominal and current value of the frequency of power; p is the coefficient depending on the steel grade (here we accept 1.5); R1 is the stator resistance.
For an optimal flux linkage (1) at a given speed of rotation, defined preset frequency, you must submit the optimum voltage Uopt that work in the area of slip can be determined approximately equivalent circuit IM by the formula
f + IiVRi2 + (2njLx)2 . (2)
This can be done using functional circuit closed system «frequency converter - induction motor», which is shown in Fig. 1. In this diagram marked: IM -asynchronous motor, CD - computing device in which the calculated value Uopt, FC - frequency converter, VS -voltage sensor, CS - current sensor, VR - voltage regulator, f - speed signal setting.
Incoming control action of the motor as part of a closed system «frequency converter - induction motor» mode optimizing the law is W = Wopt stator voltage and frequency, which are connected to each other by (2). This frequency control circuit stabilizes the speed at a given level, and voltage regulation circuit stabilizes the optimum flux.

At static load torque the motor will run with minimal loss of power provided the relationships (1) and (2). In dynamic mode at a dramatically changing the law for random load electric current, electromagnetic torque and speed IM and replaced by random laws. Moreover, the stator and rotor currents at the given voltage and frequency and assuming the work of the linear section of the magnetization curve is uniquely determined slip. With the dynamic changes sliding computing device as a result of electromagnetic and electromechanical inertia will respond to the change of load inertia that will not receive optimal treatment in every time. So for implementation mode power optimization requires stabilization of sliding (rotor speed) at stochastic dynamic loads.
In scalar control only amplitude adjustable rotor flux vector using the ratio of Ulf and its phase is unmanageable. Because of this electromagnetic torque is unmanaged components that do not allow to get high quality regulation in electric drives with variable control signals such as tracking, positional drives, but provides a fairly high quality of stabilization speed at variable loads, therefore, frequency regulated electric drives with scalar control can provide power optimization mode.
Results of investigations. Linearized block diagram of electric system «frequency converter - induction motor» of the scalar control is shown in Fig. 2.

This paper discusses the problem of statistically optimal synthesis for arbitrary structure regulator, which is previously unknown. This problem is formulated as follows. By according is the statistical characteristics of the signal disturbance - load M(t) such as its spectral density SM(a), transfer function and object management -asynchronous electric drive. Need to find a transfer function regulator Wreg(s) which provides the minimum mean square error of the system £rms.

Because of the complexity of (7) directly used for synthesis of optimal statistical it can not. Therefore

For obtaining transfer function of statistically optimal system kr0pfl (s) It is necessary to present (15) as
a ratio of complex variable polynomials jo with following substitution of the variable jo by the operator s.
After determining the transfer function statistically

of the regulator with the following relationship which can be obtained from (9) solving this equation relatively

Analysis of the frequency transfer function (12) for loads with exponential and exponentially-cosine correlation functions shown that it has positive poles of the variable jo, therefore, such a system can not be physically realized. To correct solution of this problem should be made of the frequency transfer function that has negative poles, and the other part rejected.
For this it is necessary from Kopt(jo) to separate the
part kr0pfl (jo) that is physically realized.
For this first we expand the denominator of (12) in the complex multipliers

Investigations of modes of induction electric drives with random character changes the load carried by the example of simulation of electric uniflow mills grain type of induction motor 4A80V2 load which has exponentially-cosine correlation function that corresponds to the statistical characteristics of the realizations obtained experimentally.
Simulation of the application of electric statistically optimal regulator showed reduction of variance electric output parameters (electromagnetic torque, current, speed) by 50-70 %.
Rate energy reserves through the use of statistically optimal regulator may cycle using indicators such as cycle efficiency and power factor. These figures for electric uniflow mills grain given in Table 1 in the case of non-regulated electric drive, the electric drive system «frequency converter - induction motor» with a typical speed control, designed with a static mode (with PI regulator) and with statistically optimal regulator.

From Table 1 it is shown that the use of default PI regulator does not allow to get significant energy efficiency through the use of optimal interlinkage law regulation in terms of action stochastic dynamic loads due to impacts of electromagnetic and electromechanical inertia. The use of statistically optimal regulator with stochastic disturbances enhanced the performance of electric energy. Moreover, the scalar driving these figures are close to the values obtained by statistical optimization

Conclusions.
1. At actions of dynamic stochastic loads for optimal control law implementing it is appropriate to use statistically optimal regulators instead of or together with standard regulators.
2. Simulation of electric drive of the grain crusher showed statistically optimum filtration efficiency by the regulator of high-frequency components of random points in the load, improving cycle power performance of electric drive.
