This paper presents a design optimization process for interior permanent magnet synchronous motors (IPMSM) for hybrid electric compressors (HEC) which are applied to hybrid electrical vehicles. A hybrid electric compressor is composed of an electric motor driving section and an engine driving section which is connected to the engine by a pulley belt. A hybrid electric compressor driving motor requires half of the full driving power of a compressor. Even though an engine is not operated at the idling stop mode, the electric motor drives the air-conditioner compressor by itself so that the air conditioning system can produce its minimum cooling capacity. In this paper, the design optimization of an IPMSM for a 42 (V) applied voltage system is studied using the design of experiment (DOE) and response surface method (RSM) of 6sigma. The driving characteristics of this motor drive system are measured and analyzed by experiment.

The HEV (Hybrid Electrical Vehicle) becomes commercialized recently because of high fuel efficiency and low air pollution. The highest output power system except the traction motor is an air conditioner compressor in HEV system. The full or hybrid electric compressor is applied for HEV. The general HEC (Hybrid Electric Compressor) requires the half power motor and drive system of the full electric compressor because the rated output power of motor drive system is designed to charge the minimum cooling capacity at the time of idle stop. Therefore, this hybrid electric is more economical and practical solution. In this paper, we studied about the motor drive system of hybrid electric compressor for HEV. The applied voltage specification is 42 V, an IPMSM (Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) is designed and applied as the compressor drive motor.

본 연구의 목적은 상용차 운행 시, 야간 및 운휴중에 냉방시스템을 운전하기 위하여서, 기계식과 전동식 압축기를 적용한 하이브리드 냉방시스템에 대한 냉방성능 특성을 분석하는 것이다. 기계식압축기는 170cc의 왕복동 형식이고, 전동식 압축기는 18cc 스크롤 형식이다. 전동식 압축기는 운휴시나 야간에 사용할 목적으로 적용되었기 때문에, 냉방용량은 기계식 압축기 대비 낮은 성능을 가지고 있다. 기계식 압축기를 사용하였을 경우, 6.0kW 수준의 냉방성능을 보이고 있고, 시스템 효율은 2.0이하의 결과를 가졌다. 반면, 전동식 압축기는 냉방성능 4.0kW수준, 시스템 효율은 3.5 수준을 가지고 있었다. 본 연구에서는 전동식 압축기는 냉방성능 4.0kW수준, 시스템 효율은 3.5 수준을 가지고 있었다. 기계식 압축기와 전동식 압축기를 운전조건에 따라서, 선택적으로 운전하는 것을 고려하였기 때문에, 운전모드가 바뀔 때의 시스템 특성을 분석하기 위하여서, 운전모드 변경에 대한 영향을 알아보았다. 운전모드가 변경될 때, 토출압력이 일시적으로 증가하는 경향을 보이는데, 안정적인 운전을 위하여서, 외기 부하 등을 고려한 운전모드 변경 로직에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

This paper presents the design of a switched reluctance motor (SRM) for electric air conditioning compressors which are applied to hybrid electric vehicles (EVs). The motor for driving air conditioning compressor which is recently used on EV(electric vehicle) / HEV (hybrid electric vehicle) is PMSM(permanent magnet synchronous motor) or BLDCM(brushless DC motor). However disadvantage of motors that uses permanent magnets are vulnerable to high temperatures because of the demagnetization by the high temperature and the permanent magnet is expensive because of the high price of rare earth materials from China's monopoly. Therefore, in the automotive insustry is interested in the non-rare-earth motors. SRM has many advantages. it's resistant to high temperatures, price is cheaper, because there are no permanent magnets and winding in the rotor. Also it's high relability and efficiency, suitable for high-speed operation because of structure is simple. In this paper, the SRM, non-rare-earth motor, are designed, analyzed and experimented drive to replace an existing electric compressor drive motor.

인버터 일체형 전동식 압축기 내부의 모터 및 인버터에서 발생된 열은 차가운 냉매에 의해 냉각되기 때문에 열적인 문제가 거의 발생하지 않는다. 하지만, 압축기 모터 및 인버터의 열전달 성능은 압축부와의 상호 열전달에 의하여 압축기 성능에 영향을 미친다. 또한 외기 환경 및 시스템 운전조건에 따라, 모터 및 인버터의 온도 증가는 이러한 모터 시스템의 출력 밀도에 영향을 미치고, 특히 인버터는 온도 상한치 관리에 의해 작동이 멈추어질 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 전동식 압축기 모터 시스템의 열유동 해석을 수행하였고, 모터 및 인버터의 방열성능 향상에 대해 분석하였다. 현 모델의 해석 결과는 압축기 운전영역에서 모터가 전반적으로 낮은 온도 경향을 나타내었으며, 인버터의 경우는 고속조건에서 관리 온도인 $85^{\circ}C$ 이내 범위를 만족하지만, 저속 가혹조건에서 제한 온도를 $10^{\circ}C$ 정도 초과하였다. 따라서 가혹 운전조건에서의 방열 문제를 해결하기 위해, 압축기 유로개선 뿐만 아니라 모터 및 인버터의 발열 저감기술의 개발이 요구된다.

Improvement in the energy efficiency has been studied of the desiccant cooling system by applying a vapor compression type heat pump to modify the system into a hybrid system. The cycle simulation was performed and the results were compared between a reference desiccant cooling system composed of a desiccant rotor, a sensible rotor and a regenerative evaporative cooler, and a hybrid desiccant cooling system with the sensible rotor being replaced by a heat pump. Though the electric consumption increases as much as the compressor power consumption, the total cooling capacity increases and the thermal energy input decreases by the addition of the heat pump. Therefore, the total energy efficiency can be improved if the increase in the electric consumption can be compensated with the increase in the cooling capacity and the decrease in the thermal energy input. The results showed that the total energy efficiency is optimized at a certain heat pump capacity. When the heat from the CHP plant is used for the thermal energy input, the energy consumption of the hybrid system is reduced by 20~30% compared with the reference system when the heat pump shares 30~40% of the total cooling capacity.

A $CO_2$ heat pump system was designed for both cooling and heating in the cabin of electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles or fuel cell vehicles, In this study, the performance characteristics of the heat pump system without any supplementary heating device were analyzed and the heating performance was compared with the cooling performance for various operating conditions. Experiments were carried out by changing the speed of electric drive compressor, the air flow rate of interior heat exchanger and the air inlet temperature and speed of exterior heat exchanger. Therefore, the cooling/heating capacities and the corresponding COPs are quantified. Also, the heat pump system showed an improved performance for the cooling operation and the heating operation. In this study, the experimental results can be used to evaluate the effect of system design changes on system performance as well as the development of a highly efficient heat pump system.

Electric scroll-compressor drives are commonly used for e.g. home appliance cooling units. The recent development of hybrid cars with internal combustion engine in combination with electrical propulsion requires new solutions to be able to cool the passenger compartment of cars at stand-still. Both application areas demand efficient motor drives to reach good economy and efficient use of limited battery power as well as competitive volume/weight for a given output. The BLDC motor is a controllable and efficient solution. A major part of the motor is the soft-magnetic core. The powder based $Somaloy^{(R)}$ material shows high resistivity and induction as the result of engineered iron particles with in-organic coating. The unique features of compacted $Somaloy^{(R)}$ components can be utilized to enhance the shape and total volume of the BLDC motor with at least maintained efficiency compared to the use of traditional laminated steel sheet cores. A careful design of the $Somaloy^{(R)}$ components can also simplify assembly and positively influence the coil configuration. This study shows a comparison between a typical laminated BLDC motor and a redesigned, $Somaloy^{(R)}$ based version adapted for a scroll-compressor application.

In this study, a 2W micro-gas turbine engine was designed using micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) technology, and experimental investigations of its potential under actual combustion conditions were performed. A micro-gas turbine (MGT) contains a turbo-charger, combustor, and generator. Compressor and turbine blades, and generator coil were manufactured using MEMS technology. The shaft was supported by a precision computer numerical control (CNC) machined static air bearing, and a permanent magnet was attached to the end of the shaft for generation. A heat transfer analysis found that the cooling effect of the air bearing and compressor was sufficient to cover the combustor's high temperature, which was verified in an actual experiment. The generator performance test showed that it can generate 2W at design rotational speed. Prototype micro-gas turbine generated maximum 1 mW electric power and lasted up to 15 minutes.
