Analysis a DSP Implementation and Experimental Validation of a Loss Minimization Algorithm Applied to Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Drives
2004
In this paper a new loss minimization control algorithm for inverter-fed permanent-magnet synchronous motors (PMSM), which allows to reduce the power losses of the electric drive without penalty on its dynamic performances, is analyzed, experimentally realized and validated. In particular, after a brief recall of two loss minimization control strategies (the "search control" and the "loss-model control"), both a modified dynamic model of the PMSM, which takes into account the iron losses, and a "loss-model" control strategy, are treated. Experimental tests on a specific PMSM drive employing the proposed loss minimization algorithm were performed aiming to validate the actual implementation.…
A model of a linear synchronous motor based on distribution theory
2012
The fundamental idea of this paper is to use the distribution theory to analyze linear machines in order to include in the mathematical model both ideal and non ideal features. This paper shows how distribution theory can be used to establish a mathematical model able to describe both the ordinary working condition of a Linear Synchronous Motor (LSM) as well the role of the unavoidable irregularities and non ideal features.
Sensorless Control of PMSM Fractional Horsepower Drives by Signal Injection and Neural Adaptive-Band Filtering
2012
This paper presents a sensorless technique for permanent-magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) based on high-frequency pulsating voltage injection. Starting from a speed estimation scheme well known in the literature, this paper proposes the adoption of a neural network (NN) based adaptive variable-band filter instead of a fixed-bandwidth filter, needed for catching the speed information from the sidebands of the stator current. The proposed NN filter is based on a linear NN adaptive linear neuron (ADALINE), trained with a classic least mean squares (LMS) algorithm, and is twice adaptive. From one side, it is adaptive in the sense that its weights are adapted online recursively. From another si…
A study on the influence of permanent magnet dimensions and stator core structures on the torque of the disc-type brushless DC motor
2000
This paper presents a three-dimensional analysis of the magnetic field distribution for a disc-type, double-sided, permanent magnet, brushless dc motor with a toroidal stator core. Calculations are carried out using the OPERA (3D) package with the TOSCA module. The electromagnetic torque is determined from the Maxwell stress tensor. For comparison, various permanent magnet dimensions and slotless vs. quasi-slotted stator cores are analysed, with an iron powder-resin composite effectively used to imitate the slotted core. The torque ripple is shown to be effectively reduced by appropriate permanent magnet dimensions. The simulation results are in good agreement with experimental data obtaine…
Mathematical Model of a PM Brushless Motor with Different Stator-Rotor Pole Pairs Number
2013
The paper presents a mathematical model of Permanent Magnet AC brushless machines (PMSM) having a number of stator poles-obtained via the distribution of the three-phase winding- different from the rotor one, realized by the displacement of the permanent magnets. For these so- called ‘Fractional-Slot’ motors (where few total slots generate high equivalent number of poles) the available mathematical models appear partial and/or incomplete, despite of numerous designing considerations made in literature. In this paper an analytical approach is developed to point out an instantaneous- values mathematical model with concentrated parameters, that can be suitable for control architecture systems …
Mathematical modelling of an inverter-based distributed generator
2016
In this paper, a modeling approach of a three phase power inverter based on an electrostatic synchronous machine is presented. By the proposed approach, any inverter-based distributed generator in a microgrid can be replaced by an equivalent electrostatic machine. This paper aims to promote the use of the proposed modeling approach in the analysis of microgrid stability. Thanks to the proposed modeling approach, transient performances of on-grid operation of converter-based distributed generators could be easily analyzed by multi-machine models. Parameters of the equivalent synchronous electrostatic machine model are derived to achieve equivalence with the inverter model. Small signal model…
Interior permanent magnet synchronous motors: Impact of the variability of the parameters on their efficiency
2016
In the scientific literature, various authors presented different control strategies aimed to increase the efficiency of the interior permanent magnet synchronous motors. These strategies, starting from a well-known mathematical model of the dynamic behaviour of the motor, are able to reduce the power losses acting on the magnetizing component of the stator current. However, none of the proposed approaches takes into account that, varying the working conditions of the motor, also the values of the parameters, which have an impact on the power losses, can vary. In this paper, therefore, starting from an accurate measurement of the motor characteristics for various values of speed and load, w…
A disc-type motor with co-axial flux in the stator; - influence of magnetic circuit parameters on the torque
2002
This paper presents a three-dimensional analysis of the magnetic field distribution for a three-phase, disc-type, permanent-magnet, brushless DC motor with co-axial flux in the stator. Calculations are carried out using the 3-D finite element method (FEM). The electromagnetic torque is determined from the Maxwell stress tensor. For comparison, various dimensions of permanent magnets, pole shoes and air gap are analysed. It is shown that the ripple-cogging torque can be effectively reduced by an appropriate permanent magnet width and air-gap length. The simulation results are in good agreement with experimental data obtained from the prototype motor.
A New Digital Demodulator for Sensorless Control of Electrical Drives with Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors
2008
This paper deals a new digital demodulator algorithm for sensorless control of interior permanent magnet synchronous motors (IPMS) based on the estimation of speed and rotor angular position. To this aim a signal similar to that generated by a resolver connected to the shaft of the motor is obtained injecting high frequency stator currents. A new digital algorithm has been designed and set up to demodulate the above signal whose implementation can be carried out on the same DSP that processes the whole control algorithm. The proposed demodulator scheme is presented and justified on the theoretic point of view. Simulations results finally validate the effectiveness of the demodulator within …
An embedded diagnostic system for wheelchairs brushless drives monitoring
2006
The implementation of a microcontroller based monitoring system for the diagnosis of a brushless synchronous motor drives is presented. It finds its primarily interest on motorized wheelchair for disabled people. The embedded system mainly controls all the principal parameters of the electrical drives together with the power supply system. Pre-failure and failure conditions are routinely logged and, depending on the malfunction severity, alarm messages are created and sent to a remote base station by using the GSM wireless network.
