Recently, SRMs are used in automobiles for power assistant steering, accessory motion control and traction drives. Especially in the motion control and traction drives, safety and efficiency are of paramount importance. The paper describes the essential elements faced in designing and constructing driving circuits for a switched reluctance motor for automobiles. An important factor in the selection of a motor and a drive for industrial application is the cost. The switched reluctance motor(SRM) is a simple, low-cost, and robust motor suitable for variable-speed as well as servo-type applications. With relatively simple converter and control requirements, the SRM is gaining an increasing attention in the drive industry. This paper presents a modified C-dump converter for Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) machine application in the cooling system of automobiles. The experiments are performed to verify the capability of applicate control method on 6/4 salient type SRM.

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 investigates an improved stator flux linkage observer for sensorless permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives using a voltage-based flux linkage model and an adaptive sliding mode variable structure. We propose a new observer design that employs an improved sliding mode reaching law to achieve better estimation accuracy. The design includes two models and two adaptive estimating laws, and we illustrate that the design is stable using the Popov hyper-stability theory. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed estimator accurately calculates the speed, the stator flux linkage, and the resistance while overcoming the shortcomings of traditional estimators.

This paper presents a comparison and evaluation between different anti-windup proportional-integral (PI) controller strategies used in variable-speed motor drives, and the anti-windup methods are to the speed control of a vector-controlled induction motor driven by a pulse width modulated (PWM) voltage-source inverter (VSI). The simulation results are compared for the different operating conditions and the characteristic of speed response has been analyzed in order to obtain the optimal performance of anti-windup PI controller method.

This paper presents accurate solutions for nonlinear transcendental equations of the selective harmonic elimination technique used in three-phase PWM inverters feeding the induction motor by particle swarm optimization (PSO). With the proposed approach, the required switching angles are computed efficiently to eliminate low order harmonics up to the $23^{rd}$ from the inverter voltage waveform, whereas the magnitude of the fundamental component is controlled to the desired value. A set of solutions and the evaluation of the proposed method are presented. The obtained results prove that the algorithm converges to a precise solution after several iterations. The salient contribution of the paper is the application of the particle swarm algorithm to attenuate successfully any undesired loworder harmonics from the inverter output voltage. The current paper demonstrates that the PSO is a promising approach to control the operation of a three-phase voltage source inverter with a selective harmonic elimination strategy to be applied in induction motor drives.

The effects of sensor faults on motor variables and control performance in induction motor drives are analyzed by both theoretical approach and simulation study, Vector control and direct torque control method for induction motor are well known. To control speed or position, the informations on rotor speed and rotor or stator flux are required in these control algorithms. The speed is measured by encoder. and the rotor or stator flux is estimated using motor parameters and measured currents. The control input generated based on the information from a faulted sensor should be far from the desired value and deteriorates the overall control performance.

This paper presents a novel maximum efficiency control scheme for convergence improvement in stator-flux-oriented induction motor drives. Three input powers are calculated at three different flux levels, respectively. A quadratic curve is obtained using the quadratic interpolation method using the three points. The flux level at the lowest point of the interpolated curve is calculated, which is not the real minimum input power of the motor, but an estimated one. Hence, the quadratic interpolations are repeated with three new points chosen using the selection method for new points for refitting until the convergence criteria are satisfied. The proposed method is verified by simulation results.

This paper introduces a virtual signal injected maximum torque per ampere (MTPA) control strategy for direct-torque-controlled five-phase interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drives. The key of the proposed method is that a high frequency signal is injected virtually into the stator flux linkage. Then the responding stator current is calculated and regulated to compensate the amplitude of the flux linkage. This is done according to the relationship between the stator current and the stator flux linkage. Since the proposed method does not inject any real signals into the motor, it does not cause any of the problems associated with high-frequency signals, such as additional copper loss and extra torque ripple. Simulation and experimental results are offered to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
