This paper describes independent phase BLDC motor with a maximum torque among BLDC motor used for electric propulsion system Independent phase BLDC motor has characteristic that phases of stator we independent electrically. This paper is modeling two type of 3 phases BLDC motors, one has Y-connection type and the other has independent type, and it shows simulation of them, compares its characteristics. As a result of simulation, phase voltage of independent 3 phase BLDC motor is higher than Y-connection three phase BLDC motor. When the stator resistance and inductance are stable, high phase voltage causes an increase in maximum phase current and an increases in it serially causes an increase of maximum torque. It is also found that the current pulsation of independent phase BLDC motor was decreased by controlling phase current of independent BLDC motor.

Recently, the demand of motor for industrial, household machinery is increasing. As Switching devices and control technology are progressing, so the use of BLDC Motor is increasing. But 3-Phase BLDC Motor generally used has pulsating torque and speed variation in commutation, so the range of its application is limited to high speed operation. Especially, to solve these problems, it is necessary to increase phase of Motor, so study of Poly-Phase BLDC Motor is progressing. However, when hysteresis current controller is used, switching frequency is highly increasing. In this paper, 7-Phase BLDC Motor drive system is designed. Also MSTC(Minimum Switching Time Controller) is proposed and with simulation and experiment, there validities are verified.

The magnitude of output torque in a BLDC Motor depends on torque angle so that the exact initial position of rotor is essentially required for good starting. This paper presents a novel starting control method for smooth starting in a position-sensorless controlled BLDC motor drive for reciprocating compressor of refrigerator. The proposed method starts a BLDC motor using information on the initial position of rotor, determined from current response characteristics, and shows robust starting capability to starting load variations. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through experimental results.

BLDC(Brushless DC) 전동기는 브러시(brush) 방식 DC 전동기의 브러시와 정류자를 반도체 소자를 이용한 인버터로 대체한 것으로 높은 효율과 제어의 용이성 때문에 최근 많이 사용되고 있다. 하지만 회전자의 위치 정보에 의해 정류를 하므로 회전자 위치 센서가 필요하고 그에 따라 전동기의 구조가 복잡하게 되고 작동 환경에 제한을 받게 된다. 본 논문에서는 위치 센서 없이 고정자의 권선에 유기되는 역기전력을 이용한 센서리스(sensorless) BLDC 전동기의 토크리플 저감에 대하여 연구하였다. BLDC 전동기를 수학적으로 모델링하여 센서리스 BLDC 전동기의 토크리플 제어 알고리즘을 구성하고 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 그 결과를 검토하였다. 또한 기존 센서 부착형 BLDC 전동기와 비교하여 그 타당성을 입증하였다.

In order to obtain the maximum characteristics of motors such as torque and efficiency, all motors basically use universal inverters designed for each motor's characteristics. However, if you look at the recent research results, you can see cases of SRM(Switched Reluctance Motor) driving studies using 6-switch inverters, which are BLDC(Brushless DC Motor) universal inverters, and research cases of driving 3-phase BLDC motors using 4-switch inverters. Therefore, it is possible to search for research methods by approaching various methods of driving and control that can drive each motor apart from the existing universal inverter. In line with this research trend, in this paper, a C-dump type converter, which is an SRM drive converter, was applied as a drive driver for a BLDC motor, and its characteristics and possibilities were studied.

This paper discusses the control method of BLDC(Brushless Direct Current) motor that has similar electrical characteristics with DC motor but has improved its lifespan and reliability. The BLDC motor can improve durability and speed stability by using rotor position information to eliminate commutators that require mechanical contact with DC motors. In this study, a controller for a DC motor was designed based on the fact that the current in the windings of a BLDC motor is a square-wave current like the current flowing in the armature of a DC motor. Next, the designed controller was applied to a 3-phase BLDC motor to confirm the effectiveness of the controller. In detail, a single-phase DC motor with electrical parameter values of a three-phase BLDC motor was modeled and a PI controller for motor speed control was designed by applying the root locus method to the derived system. The speed control simulation of the DC motor was performed to confirm the validity of the controller, and the same controller was applied to the speed control of the 3-phase BLDC motor implemented in MATLAB. From the simulation, similar results of the DC motor were obtained in the 3 phase BLDC motor and confirmed the usefulness of the proposed control scheme.

본 논문에서는 y결선 된 7상 BLDC 전동기의 최대 효율 제어를 위한 새로운 권선 여자 방식을 제안한다. 다상 BLDC 전동기의 기본동작은 N상 (N-1)여자 방식이다. 하지만 여자되는 권선수를 감소시켜도 동작이 가능하다. 수중 추진 시스템의 동일한 부하 조건에서 다상 BLDC 전동기는 여자되는 권선수에 따라 발생하는 손실이 다르기 때문에 최대 효율 제어를 위해서는 여자되는 권선의 수를 조정해야 한다. 전동기의 동손과 인버터 시스템의 전기적인 손실은 기존의 논문과 IGBT 제조사의 애플리케이션 노트를 활용하여 계산이 가능하다. 따라서 동일한 부하조건에서 다상 BLDC 전동기의 여자되는 권선수에 대한 전기적인 손실과 전동기의 동손을 분석하고 최대 효율 운전을 위한 새로운 권선 여자 방식을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 시뮬레이션 및 실험을 통해 검증하였다.

The sensorless speed control technique for BLDC motor using digital IP control is proposed in this paper for advanced speed characteristic which is robust to motor parameters and load variations. The sensorless drive of BLDC motor using terminal voltages is affected by load or speed because it uses analog filters to estimate the rotor position. For this reason, the robust speed controller with the accurate rotor position estimator is needed for sensorless control which is robust to load and insensitive to motor parameters. The constant speed robust to load variation and the stable sensorless control of BLDC motor robust to the increase or decrease of speed with constant load is implemented using digital IP control in this paper. The validity to these is established with experimentation.

This paper presents a novel method to diagnose magnetization faults produced during magnetization process using stator coils of a brushless dc motor with concentrated windings. It is demonstrated that the stator coil magnetization faults can cause a drop of energy efficiency of the brushless dc motor through computer simulations using a magnetization fault model and efficiency test using compressors. The proposed method diagnoses the stator coil magnetization faults by using an inverter during the brushless dc motor driving test after the magnetization process is completed. An experimental study on the brushless dc motor for compressor shows that the stator coil magnetization faults can be detected with high sensitivity.
