Modeling and Simulation of Drawwork’s DC & AC Traction Systems with Different Motor Drives

When selecting an adjustable speed AC or DC drive, the load type is a very important consideration. During the selection process, it is important to understand the speed and torque characteristics. It is also important to understand the horsepower requirements of the type of load to be considered.With the help of practical tests on the drawworks drive system, drilling machine model will be obtained, then through a variety of industrial AC, synchronous and induction motors, the most appropriate motor for the function of DC motor is procured. Different drives in response to load needs and other functional features are examined in order to identify the best alternative for the drive. Then, in Simulink-Matlab software simulation environment, based on the hoisting system, the current DC drive will be stimulated and then with the same load conditions, we will design and stimulate the drawworks system drives by the proposed electric motor and adaptive optimal algorithm and betimes we acquire curves, response speed, torque and current in load conditions
