This paper presents a current sensorless maximum torque control of a synchronous reluctance motor drive. Stator current and current angle vs. maximum torque are obtained using measured d-axis and q-axis inductances. Then, d and q-axis stator voltage references for current sensorless maximum torque control are calculated from stator voltage equations. The proposed method is verified by simulation results comparing with conventional method.

해상에는 막대한 파력 부존량이 존재함에도 불구하고 파력발전은 다른 신재생 에너지 발전에 비하여 효율이 낮고 발전단가가 높아 경제성이 떨어진다. 그러므로 파력발전시스템을 상용화하기 위해서는 파력발전 효율을 증대시키기 위한 연구가 반드시 필요하다. 본 논문에서 제시하는 파력발전시스템은 기존의 파력발전기로는 발전할 수 없었던 작은 파도로도 발전 가능하도록 설계되어 높은 효율의 발전을 기대할 수 있다. 본 실험을 통하여 미세한 파도에서도 충분한 발전을 할 수 있는 시스템인지 여부를 판단하고 나아가서 상사법칙을 이용하여 본 모델 보다 5배 크기로 추정하였을 때 여기서 제시하는 파력발전시스템이 실제 해상에서 상용화 가능성이 있는지를 알아보고자 한다. 본 실험은 2차원 조파수조에서 수행 되었으며 발전시스템의 출력 값은 토크센서와 RPM 측정기를 사용하여 도출하였다.

Electric Power Steering(EPS) system is superior to conventional Hydraulic Power Steering(HPS) system in aspect of fuel economy and environmental concerns. The EPS system consists of torque sensor, electric motor, ECU(Electric Control Unit), gears and etc. Among the elements, the torque sensor is one of the core technologies of which output signal is used for main input of EPS controller. Usually, the torque sensor has used torsion bar to transform torsion angle into torque. The torsion angle of both ends of a torsion bar is measured by a contact variable resistor. In this paper, the sensor is accurately analyzed using 3D finite element method and its characteristics with respect to four different shapes of the stator teeth are compared. The four shapes are rectangular, triangular, trapezoidal and circular type.

The oil-pressure type torque sensor has been adopted in steering system of major automobiles. However, it has been well known that this type of torque sensor needed many subcomponents and produced inaccurate responses. This paper intends to suggest new type of torque sensor based on the shape design by using finite element. A dedicated mesh generation, analysis and post result display program has been developed. As for shape design purpose, the half shape of torque sensor is considered. The result of this study has shown that the design automation for precise torque sensor for control of high velocity rotation shaft can be achieved whithout any expensive investment to the design software.

In this paper, a new approach for the SynRM(Synchronous Reluctance Motor) control which ensures producing MTPA(Maximum Torque per Ampere) over the entire field weakening region is presented. In addition, this paper presents a speed sensorless control scheme of SynRM using flux observer. Also, by adjusting the base speed for the field weakening operation according to the flux level, the current and voltage limit, the smooth and precise transition into the field weakening operation can be achieved. The validity of the proposed scheme is verified through simulation.

This paper estimate coefficient of adhesion through speed sensor-less vector control and load torque disturbance observer used for maximum tractive force control. And also proposes anti-slip control algorithm, which controls torque force of motor in order to keep the estimated adhesion force in maximum adhesion by controlling PI torque with the differential value of estimated adhesion force coefficient.

This paper presents a method to reduce commutation torque ripples occurred during commutation in brushless do motor drives using a single DC-link current sensor. In brushless dc motor drives with a single dc current sensor instead of 3-phase line current sensors, it is noted that dc-link current sensor cannot give any information corresponding to the motor currents during line current commutation intervals. A new technique to resolve such a problem is dealt with based on a deadbeat current control in which motor armature voltage command is computed from a dc-link current reference, an actual current and counter emf voltage. The simulation results show that the proposed method reduces the torque ripple significantly.

The effect of sensor faults in DTC based induction motor drives is analyzed and a fault detection problem is treated. An adaptive gain scheduling observer is proposed for the design of DTC controller and a fault detection system. The observer provides not only the estimate of stator flux, a key variable in DTC system, but also the estimates of stator current, rotor speed that are useful for fault detection purpose. Simulations for various type of sensor faults are performed to evaluate the performance of the overall control system and the proposed sensor fault detection scheme.

This paper presents a method for the equivalent-circuit parameters and torque characteristics calculation of squirrel-cage induction motors. The measurment of motor parameters were calculated by the stator resistance test, the blocked rotor test and no load test through T type equivalent-circuit method. Especially, this paper describes the test results obtained by using hall sensor and strain gage for the current and the torque characteristics of induction motors. 1(HP), three-phase squirrel cage induction motor has been used during the test and the parameters are compared with those obtained by the maker parameters of simulation results and experiment.

Various control algorithms have been proposed for the speed-sensorless control for an induction motor. These control schemes are mainly based on the speed feedback with the flux and speed estimations. This paper proposes another method for the speed-sensorless control for an induction motor. The proposed scheme is based on the torque and flux compensation without speed estimations, in which the same controlled stator voltage is applied to both the induction motor and the numerical model so that the differences between torques and fluxes of the model and the induction motor may be compelled to give access to zero. The results of experiment show the effectiveness of the scheme.
