This paper presents an innovative solution that is able to suppress the thrust ripple in a high-power asynchronous linear induction motor (LIM) used in a microgravity experiment facility electromagnetic launch (MEFEL) system. By addressing the crucial need for low levels of thrust ripple in MEFEL applications, we propose a dynamic model-based adaptive controller (MAC) and an enhanced quasi-proportional-resonant (PR) controller. The MAC is designed to compensate for the inherent impedance asymmetry of the linear motor. The PR controller minimizes thrust ripple by eliminating harmonics within the current loop. A comparative analysis indicates that both MAC and PR control are effective in reducing harmonics, suppressing the thrust ripple, and maintaining system stability. Computer simulations show a noteworthy 75% reduction in the thrust ripple and a decrease in the negative current. Partial tests on the MEFEL device validate the practical efficacy of the proposed control methods, emphasizing the method’s ability to enhance the quality of microgravity in real-world scenarios significantly.
