The Theory of operation of switched reluctance motors (SRM) depends on the reluctance torque, where energy is transferred to stator winding only. Although its construction is simple, the electrical design is complex, due to the switching configuration needed to deliver power to stator coils. However, because of the nonlinearly of magnetic circuit, SRM has torque ripple. This paper proposes a new strategy to drive SRM from a single-phase AC supply. Each stator winding is connected to AC-DC or AC-AC converters, which is called branch. All branches are connected in parallel to a single-phase AC supply. A shaft encoder allows current production in stator winding during the positive torque production region and terminates it during the negative torque production region. A magnetic flux is produced between stator poles when current is supplied from AC supply to stator coil and repeats many cycles as long as the rate of change of stator inductance is positive. Different possibilities for the configurations of AC-AC or AC-DC converters are introduced to drive SRM from the single-phase AC supply. A case study is presented for a SRM fed from AC supply through semi-controlled AC-DC converter is presented. A simulation model is introduced and verified by experimental rig for two-phase SRM.

This paper discusses the design and control of a switched reluctance motor (SRM) drive system for a built-in car vacuum cleaner. The growing popularity of outdoor activities and recreation has led the automobile industry to expand technologies that increase the convenience of vehicles, and thus, a built-in car vacuum cleaner was introduced. However, the existing DC motor of a vacuum cleaning system has several disadvantages, such as maintenance cost and lifespan issues of its commutator-brush structure. An SRM can be a good alternative to the existing DC motor because of its high-speed capability, long lifespan, low maintenance cost, and high efficiency, among other advantages. A prototype SRM drive is designed and manufactured to verify its feasibility for use in a built-in car vacuum cleaning system. Dynamic simulation is conducted to determine the optimal switching angle for maximum efficiency and minimum torque ripple. Load test, noise measurement, and suction-power tests are also carried out.

With only the classical PID controller applied to control of a DC motor, a good (target) performance characteristic of the controller can be obtained, if all the model parameters of DC motor and operating conditions such as external load torque, disturbance, etc. are exactly known. However, in case when some of system parameters or operating conditions are uncertain or unknown, the fixed PID controller does not guarantee the good performance which is assumed with precisely known system parameters and operating conditions. In view of this and robustness enhancement of DC motor control system, we propose a PID learning controller which consists of a set of learning rules for PID gain tuning and learning of an auxiliary input. The proposed PID learning controller is shown to drive the state of uncertain DC motor system with unknown system parameters and external load torque to the desired one globally asymptotically. Computer simulation results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed PID learning controller, thereby showing whose superiority to the conventional fixed PID controller.

Accurate positioning of the throttle valve of a gasoline engine is required to implement various systems such as traction control system(TCS), cruise control system and drive-by-wire system. In this research, position control system has been developed for the throttle actuator system that uses one throttle actuation for small volume and DC servo motor for fast response. In order to drive the DC motor, PWM signal generator and PWM amplifier were built and interfaced to the motor and controller. Also, time delay control(TDC) law has been used as a basic control algorithm. A method of varying the reference model of the TDC according to the size of change in target throttle angle is proposed here. The simulation and experimental results show that both overshoot prevention and fast response are achieved by the TDC technique with this variable reference model.

A strategy for a torque ripple reduction drive of single-phase SRM with high power factor is proposed. The drive for switched reluctance motor (SRM) is presented to achieve sinusoidal, near unity power factor input current with low torque ripple. The proposed SRM drive has no additional active switch. And a single-stage approach, which combines a DC link capacitor used as dc source and a drive used for driving the motor into one power stage, has a simple structure and low cost. The characteristics and validity of the proposed circuit is discussed in depth through the experimental results.

Recently most machineries have been small size and mobile type. And human body insertion type endoscope and micro robot technology has been developed. Then the motors used in this field are developed in micro size such as about 2mm in diameter. The structure of this motor is similar to a general brushless DC(BLDC) motor but because of small size there is no position sensor such as hall sensor. In this paper, a design and fabrication result of an ultra-small brushless DC motor is presented. This motor is designed to 3-phase coreless winding and operated with sensor-less type driver. Test results confirmed the feasibility of the proposed motor drive system design.

현재 생활의 이기인 자동차 등에서 구동되는 기기의 전원은 배터리 전원을 주로 사용하고 있으며, 또한 산업체에 사용되는 인버터를 사용하는 기기에서도 DC 전원 사용이 확대되고 있다. 이와 같이 DC 전원이 사용되는 곳에서 전력선을 활용한 데이터 통신방식에 대한 수요가 급증할 것으로 사료된다. 본 논문에서는 DC 전원을 기반으로 하는 DC 전력선 통신을 이용하여 BLDC(Brushless DC) 전동기 구동시스템을 제안한다. 이 시스템의 특징은 인출되는 DC 전원으로 사용되는 2 선만으로 구성하여 데이터 통신을 할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 외부 설정치와 지령치로 사용되는 신호선을 제거하고 전력선과 엔코더 신호선의 단축으로 신뢰성 확보되며, 또한 멀티 제어 시 배선수의 최소화 및 회전기기 장착 시 슬립링 수를 최소화 할 수 있다. 위험한 환경에서도 안정성이 증가되며, 시스템 제작단가를 저감할 수 있다. 마지막으로 제안된 방식에 대한 우수성을 검증하기 위해서 PSIM 및 MATLAB를 활용하여 시뮬레이션을 실시하였고, 실제 프로토타입을 제작하여 실험을 통하여 그 타당성을 검증하였다.

Brushless Direct Current(BLDC) Motor is essential to measure a rotor position because of that this motor type needs to synchronize the rotor's position and changeover phase current instead of a brush and commutator used on the existing dc motor. Recently, many researches have studied on sensorless control drive for BLDC motor. The conventional control methods are a compensation value dq, Kalman filter, Fuzzy logic, Neurons neural network, and the like. These methods has difficulties of detecting BEMF accurately at low speed because of low BEMF voltage and switching noise. And also, the operation is long and complex. So, it is required a high-performance microprocessor. Therefore, it is not suitable for a small BLDC motor sensorless drive. This paper presents control methods suitable for economic small BLDC motor sensorless drive which are an improved design of the BEMF detection circuit, simplifying a complex algorithm and computation time reduction. The improved motor sensorless drive is verified stability and validity through being designed, manufactured and analyzed.

This paper describes a indirect sensing method for the rotor flux position of interior permanent magnet (IPM) brushless DC motors. The phase inductance of an IPM motor varies appreciably according to the rotor position. The waveform characteristics of the terminal voltage of IPM brushless DC motors is analysed and a simple and practical method for indirect sensing of the rotor position is proposed. A compact sensorless drive is implemented and tested using a 87c196mc 16-bit microcomputer. The experimental results show the validity of the proposed method and the drive works well from 500 to 7,200rpm.
