Electrical motors are an integral part of industrial plants with no less than 5 billion motors built world wide every year. The demand for low-cost brushless DC (BLDC) motors has increased in industrial applications. This paper presents a BLDC motor control algorithm for low-cost motor drive applications using general purpose microcontrollers which have only one on-chip timer. This paper describes how to realize pulse width modulation (PWM) signals with general input/output (I/O) ports to control a three-phase permanent magnet brushless DC motor using the timer interrupt on MSP430F1232.

In the conventional E-bike, a 42 V/10 A Li-ion battery drives a 24 V/10 A BLDC motor via a 6-switch PWM DC/AC inverter. The major problems of the conventional battery-fed motor drive systems are listed as follows. To charge the battery, an external battery charger (adapter) is required, which degrades the portability of E-bike users. In addition, given the high-frequency operation of the motor drive inverter, the switching losses are significant, which degrades the whole power efficiency. High-voltage batteries (42 V) require a complex battery management system (BMS), which degrades the reliability of the battery pack. In this paper, an embedded boost-converter battery charger for E-bikes is proposed. The variable output boost converter, which converts 16.8 V battery voltage to the required variable voltage of the inverter input, can use a low-voltage battery and thus improve the reliability of batteries. By varying the inverter input voltage via boost converter, a DC link voltage control method can be applied to reduce the switching frequency of the inverter, which improves the whole power efficiency. Given that the function of a flyback charger is integrated in the proposed boost converter, the portability of the E-bike user can be maximized by excluding an external adapter. The validity of the proposed circuit will be confirmed by operation mode analysis and simulation. Moreover, experimental results of integrative charger using Li-ion battery and 200 W motor test will be showed with a prototype sample as well.

본 논문은 최대전력점추적을 하는 PV 시스템을 이용한 점핑시스템 구동을 위한 단상유도전동기의 벡터제어를 제시한다. 펌핑시스템은 벡터제어에 의한 원심 펌프를 구동하는 가변속 단상유도전동기를 사용한다. DC-DC 컨버터를 이용한 MPPT는 다양한 일사량에 따라 최대 전력을 추적하기 위해 듀티 사이클을 제어한다. 듀티 사이클은 자속을 발생시키는 전류($i_{ds}$)와 직접적인 관계가 있다. 벡터제어 인버터는 CC-VSI를 사용한다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 일사량 변화에 따른 전압($V_{dq}$), 전류($I_{dq}$), 전동기 속도, 토크 등의 성능 및 특성을 나타낸다.

항공기에서 사용되는 연료펌프를 민군겸용구성품개발사업을 통하여 국내 최초로, 국내 독자기술로 개발하였다. 연료승압펌프의 모터 조립체에 있어서 모터는 효율성, 내구성, 내폭발성 등의 관점에서 DC 브러시 모터보다 특성이 우수한 BLDC 형식을 채택하였다. Maxwell 방정식과 환경조건을 활용하고 자속밀도를 통하여 전자기해석을 수행하였다. 설계를 검증하기 위하여 유한요소법을 이용하여 부하에 따른 모터성능을 해석하였고 모터 드라이브와 EMI 필터를 설계하여 모터 조립체가 개발되었다. 연료승압펌프 모터 조립체의 성능시험 결과는 해석결과와 매우 일치하는 것으로 확인되었다.

BLDC (Brushless DC) 전동기는 선형적인 토크 대 전류, 속도 대 전압특성을 갖고 있으며 기계적 전기적인 잡음이 없고, 가감속 제어가 용이하며, 토크 대 관성의 비가 매우 높아 소형으로 높은 출력을 낼 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 전기자 전류의 전환 (Commutation)시 고정자 권선의 인덕턴스 성분과 역기전력으로 인해 발생되는 전류리플은 BLDC 전동기의 구동시 발생되는 토크리플의 중요한 원인이 되어, 고정밀 서보계통에 대한 응용에 큰 장애가 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 퓨리에 시리즈계수를 사용한 새로운 전류제어 알고리즘을 개발하여 상전류 전환시 발생하는 전류리플을 최소화함으로서 토크리플을 현저히 감소 시켰으며, BLDC 전동기의 구동을 위해 널리 사용되고 있는 UNIPOLAR PWM 방식과 시뮬레이션 및 실험을 통해 비교함으로써, 새로운 알고리즘의 효용성을 입증하고자 한다.

An input power estimation method of a three-phase inverter for the high-efficiency operation of AC motors is proposed. Measuring devices, such as DC link voltage and input current sensors, are required to obtain the input power of the inverter. In the proposed method, the input power of the inverter can be estimated without the input current sensor by using the phase current information of the AC motor and the switching pattern of the inverter. The proposed method is more robust to parameter error than conventional method. The validity of the input power estimation method is verified through experiments conducted on a 1 kW permanent-magnet synchronous motor drive system.

In an effort to conserve electric power, variable voltage variable frequency pulse width modulated (PWM) inverters are being applied increasingly to the variable speed control of the induction motors. The use of the PWM technique in motor drive applications is considered advantageous in many ways. For industrial applications, the PWM drive obtains its DC input through simple uncontrolled rectification of the commercial AC line and is favored for its good power factor, good efficiency, its relative freedom regulation problem, and mainly for its ability to operate the motor with nearly sinusoidal current waveforms. The purpose of this paper is to design a three phase natural sampled PWM inverter using microprocessor with simple control algorithm and hybrid control circuit has been built to implement this PWM scheme. In this system, the microprocessor can be used only for calculations directly related to motor control tasks by the design of hybrid circuit which sends PWM signals to the motor.

This paper proposes a novel sensorless fault detection algorithm for a brushless DC(BLDC) motor drive system. This proposed method is configured without the additional sensor for fault detection and identification. The fault detection and identification are achieved by a simple algorithm using the operating characteristic of the BLDC motor. This proposed method can also be embedded into existing BLDC motor drive systems as a subroutine without excessive computational effort. The feasibility of a novel sensorless fault detection algorithm is validated in simulation.
