Multiphase machine models can be accurately designed and represented by means of MATLAB Simulink. This is because the dq-axis flux linkages and the torque response of the multiphase machines can be accurately expressed and described by means of lookup tables-based finite element method (FEM) simulations. However, the power electronic converters are easily implemented using MATLAB Simscape. Hence, the two MATLAB blocks should be connected together to provide the whole drive system. However, there will be a problem to easily connect the two MATLAB blocks directly. Consequently, this paper introduces a detailed description of the proposed interconnector that can be used to interface the two MATLAB blocks. A five-phase induction motor Simulink model connected to a five-phase voltage source inverter Simscape model will be presented to analyze and describe the implementation of the proposed interconnector. Finally, the simulation result of the five-phase squirrel cage induction motor, the five-phase voltage source inverter and the proposed interconnector are displayed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
