This paper presents a digital speed sensorless control system for Reluctance Synchronous Motor (RSM) drives with direct torque control (DTC). The system consist of stator flux observer, rotor speed estimator, torque estimator two hysteresis band controllers, an optimal switching look-up table. IGBT voltage source inverter, and TMS320C31DSP controller by using fully integrated control software. The stator flux observer is based on the combined voltage and current model with stator flux feedback adaptive control that inputs are current and voltage sensing of motor terminal with estimated rotor angle for wide speed range. The rotor speed is estimated by the observed stator flux-linkage space vector. The estimated rotor speed can be determinated by differentiation of the rotor position used only in the current model part of the flux observer for a low speed operating area. In order to prove the suggested speed sensorless control algorithm. There are some simulation and testing at actual experimental system. The developed digitally high- performance speed sensorless control system are shown a good speed control response characteristic results and high Performance features using 1.0Kw RSM.

화석연료의 고갈로 인하여 친환경 자동차에 대한 연구와 상용화가 급속도로 진행되면서 점점 대형 차종으로 그 범위가 넓어지고 있다. 대형 차종에 적용되는 전기동력 시스템의 MCU(Motor Control Unit), GCU(Generator Control Unit), DC/DC 컨버터 등과 같은 전장품도 그 용량이 커지면서 상용화를 위해 효율적인 측면도 많이 부각되지만 스위칭 소자, 변압기, 초크, 다이오드 등에서 동작으로 인해 열이 발생하고 제품의 구조상 밀폐된 공간에 장착이 되기 때문에 발열로 인한 동작의 신뢰성과 제품의 내구성에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 그중 가장 발열이 심한 IGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) 등과 같은 스위칭 소자에서 발생하는 열을 효과적으로 냉각시키기 위해 수냉구조가 필수적이며 동일한 조건의 수압, 유량에 보다 높은 방열특성을 가지기 위해 냉각구조에 대한 해석이 제품을 개발 전에 선행되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 유로의 냉각핀 형상과 유로 구조에 따라 방열특성이 어떠한 차이가 있는지 시뮬레이션 프로그램을 통하여 비교하고, 모사발열체를 이용한 방열부의 냉각 성능 시험과 다이나모 환경의 최대 출력 시험을 통하여 방열 특성을 확인하였다.

This paper presents a application of vector control strategy to 1.2MVA traction drive for railway vehicle. The vector control required the control of the phase and amplitude of output voltage vector. But in case of traction system for railway vehicle, the one-pulse mode is used at high speed region in order to utilize the link voltage fully. So it is impossible to control the flux and torque axis current instantaneously and independently in the region. So this paper proposes a mixed control algorithm, where the vector control strategy at low speed region and slip-frequency control strategy at high speed region is used. And precise switching technique between the two different control strategy is proposed. The proposed strategy is verified by experimental results with a 1.2MVA traction drive system with four 210kW induction motors.

In this study, we investigated the trend of technological development in major countries related to the propulsion equipment of railway vehicles. The propulsion system is the main equipment of electric vehicles. A lot of time and investment are required in order to ensure the development of technology. Therefore, developed countries have maximized their effort to develop technologies with safety, reliability, and convenience of maintenance. They have also done their utmost to prevent technology transfer to other countries after the development of new technologies. For example, Toshiba of Japan developed a new 3,300V/1,500 A class IGBT power device, but was reluctant to export it to foreign countries in order to protect this technology. In this study, we analyzed the patents applied for related to propulsion control systems and presented the direction of development during the technical development of these systems. The patent analysis of the core technologies was conducted using the Thomson Innovation DB. We examined the number of patents applied for by country, year and major applicant. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the proportion of patent applications per country was in the order of China, 48%, Europe 16.6%, and the United States 14.9%. The patent situation of the top 10 principal applicants revealed that (the top three were?) ABB 14%, GE 13%, and CRRC 12%. At the same time, we also conducted a qualitative analysis of the level of technical development by evaluating such factors as the influence index, quotation, market securing power and citation. Based on the result of the patent analysis, we presented the direction of technical development of the propulsion control equipment of railway vehicles. Based on the analysis results, it was found that domestic applicants considerably reduced their efforts to protect their patents from foreign companies. Nowadays, most of the electric motors used in Korea are induction motors. In advanced countries, permanent magnet electric motors are employed in new railway lines. Therefore, intensive investment is needed in new developments.
