The paper deals with the control of the synchronous reluctance machine without position senser. A method for the computation of the transformation angle out of terminal voltages and currents is presented. The injection of test signals allows operation at zero speed. Fundamental for this control scheme is the angle estimation method over the whole operating range including field-weakening is discussed in detail. The implementation of the angle estimation method in a rotor-oriented control scheme and practical results are demonstrated.

The paper deals with the control of the synchronous reluctance machine without position sensor. A method for the computation of the transformation angle out of terminal voltages and currents is presented. The injection of test signals allows operation at zero speed. Fundamental for this control scheme is the exact modelling of the machine, where especially the saturable inductances are of central interest. The accuracy of the angle estimation method over the whole operating range including field-weakening is discussed in detail. The implementation of the angle estimation method in a rotor-oriented control scheme and practical results are demonstrated.

Recently, owing to environmental problems and instability of rare earth resources market, non-rare earth electric motors are attracting attention. As a non-rare earth motor type, a wound rotor synchronous motor(WRSM) has high power density and wide driving range further it can reduce loss by field current control during field weakening control at high speed. However, since the d-axis flux of the WRSM is coupled with the rotor circuit, the fluctuation in the d-axis flux linkage affects the rotor circuit, which causes ripple of the field current and torque. In this paper, we propose the field current ripple compensation method by injecting the feedforward voltage. the proposed compensating method was demonstrated by simulation and experiments.

Belt-driven Starter Generator (BSG) differs from other mild hybrid systems as the crankshaft of vehicle are not run off. Motor permits a low-cost method of adding mild hybrid capabilities such as start-stop, power assist, and mild levels of regenerative braking. Wound rotor synchronous motor (WRSM) could be adopted in BSG system for HEV e-Assisted application instead of the interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM). In practice, adequate torque is indispensable for starter assist system, and energy conversion should be taken into account for the HEV or EV as well. Particularly, flux weakening control is possible to realize by adjusting both direct axis components of current and field current in WRSM. Accordingly, this paper present an off-line current acquisition algorithm that can reasonably combine the stator and field current to acquire the maximum torque, meanwhile the energy conversion is taken into consideration by losses. Besides, on account of inductance influence by non-uniform air gap around rotor, nonlinear inductances and armature flux linkage against current variation are proposed to guarantee the results closer to reality. A computer-aided method for proposed algorithm are present and results are given in form of the Look-up table (LUT). The experiment shows the validity of algorithm.

In this study, the energy conversion characteristics and design of electric vehicle (EV: Electric Vehicle) powertrain were performed. An interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) was targeted as a power source for the EV powertrain, and control was performed. In order to drive the IPMSM, two regions are considered: a constant torque and a constant output (field-weakening) region. The design of the control system for IPMSM was constructed based on the d-q reference frame (vector control). To determine the static characteristics of motor torque appearing in two areas of IPMSM, a torque control system and a d axis current control system of IPMSM were implemented and proposed. Matlab-Simulink software was used for characteristic analysis. Finally, by applying IPMSM to the powertrain model under the actual EV vehicle level conditions, simulation results of the proposed control system were performed and characteristics were analyzed.

Linear proportional-integral (PI) controllers are an attractive choice for controlling the speed of induction machines because of their simplicity and ease of implementation. Fractional-order PI (FO-PI) controllers, however, perform better than PI controllers because of their nonlinear nature and the underlying iso-damping property of fractional-order operators. In this work, an FO-PI controller based on the proposed first-order plus dead-time induction motor model and integer-order (IO) controllers, such as Ziegler-Nichols PI, Cohen-Coon PI, and a PI controller tuned via trial-and-error method, is designed. Simulation and experimental investigation on an indirect field-oriented induction motor drive system proves that the proposed FO-PI controller has better speed tracking, lesser settling time, better disturbance rejection, and lower speed tracking error compared with linear IO-PI controllers. Our experimental study also validates that the FO-PI controller maximizes the torque per ampere output of the induction machine and can effectively control the motor at low speed, in field-weakening regions, and under detuned conditions.

This paper presents a strategy to drive built in-type spindle induction motor which is used as CNC (Computer Numerical Control) in the industrial world. The direct vector control which is robust to the changed machine parameters in the high speed range is used in this motor control method. And electrical model of induction motor presents the basic idea based on observer structure, which is composed of voltage model and current model. But the former has the defects in low speed range, the latter has the defects of sensitivity to motor parameter. Thus Gopinath model flux estimator which is the closed loop flux observer based on two models for the rotor flut estimation is used in this paper. Moreover this paper presents to drive the spindle motor in the high speed range by using the flux weakening control.

In this paper, design of Wound Rotor Synchronous Motor(WRSM) for Integrated Starter and Generator(ISG) is performed based on Finite Element Analysis(FEA). WRSM can control not only magnitude and phase of armature current, but also field current. Thus, various control methods can be considered. Since driving characteristic of WRSM depends greatly on the control method, characteristic analysis accoding to possible driving current combination is reguired. Especially in high speed region, the control method that reduces unnecessary d-axis current by reducing field current is possible, which is similar to field weakening control. By the current combination reducing field and d-axis current, the design minimizing copper loss to increase efficiency on identical driving point is possible. In this paper, high efficient WRSM is designed applying the current combination which can minimize copper loss on each driving point.

Samsung Electronics has developed high performance velocity and position controller for induction motors, and succeeded in mass production for the first time in Korea. Dynamic performance and final control accuracy of the controller are equivalent to those of AC servo motor controller. At present, we adopted the controller as spindle motor drive for Samsung CNC systems, and expect its wide use in industry as general purpose velocity and position controller for induction motor.

IPMSM(Interior Permanent Magnet Motor) 운전을 위한 기존의 약계자 제어기는 약계자 운전 시 필요한 고정자 전류에 대한 명확한 기준이 없어 실험을 통해 알아볼 수밖에 없다. 이를 개선하고자 본 논문에서는 전류위상각 제어기를 이용하여 최적의 고정자 전류를 찾는 약계자 제어기를 제안하고 시뮬레이션을 시행하여 제안한 알고리즘의 효용성을 입증한다.
