A load motor used for warship or submarine is with limited volume and weight, also specific environmental tests like impact, vibration, noise, temperature and EMC/EMI have to be satisfied. Induction motors, synchronous motors, BLDC motor and etc, are used depending on the purpose of using military equipment. Induction Motors are used for a number of military equipment more commonly due to the robust structure and simple maintenance. Domestic and foreign warships have a wide range of voltages as the DC voltage sources with battery are mainly used for them. The ${\Delta}-connection$ operation of the induction motor is required to make the maximum power in a low voltage level. But the elements' temperature of the inverter increases due to high input current when it is in the ${\Delta}-connection$ operation. Therefore, the induction motor must be driven with the Y-connection. The lack of voltage needs to be with the field weakening control. This paper suggests the optimum field weakening control algorithm to drive the induction motor with maximum power in a limited thermal and DC voltage condition.

Recently, commercial ships and other specialized vessels with electric propulsion system employ variable speed induction motor as its prime mover. The wide application of electrical motors also includes being the main drive system in most industrial machineries. However, during its start-up, shutdown, and brake switch operation, excessive torque variation are generated. As such, flexible coupling are installed in order to reduce the transmitted torque fluctuation to the driven side. In this paper, the pulse torque generated by an variable speed induction motor was analyzed theoretically and through measurement of torsional vibration. Induction motor with inverter on marine propulsion system and industrial compressor were used as experimental subjects. The study confirmed that pulse torque are generated regardless of motor speed and interpreted as a vibration source of the whole system. Results presented herein can be adopted as the basis in future amendment of inspection classifying body regulations.

An experimental study was performed to investigate the characteristics of refrigerant flow rate control and superheat in an evaporator with an electronic expansion valve(EEV). The EEV used in this study was devised using a needle valve coupled with a stepping motor controlled by a personal computer. A Pill control equation was used to control the superheat of the evaporator and to set the superheat to $5^{\circ}C$. In order to determine an optimum running condition for the system, Pill parameters were varied for the wide range of values. The running condition of an air conditioning system with a PI control was reasonably stable compared with that of the Pill control. Experimental results for the PI control using parameter values, $K_p=1.5$, $T_i=400(sec)$ and $T_s=6(sec)$ show that the superheat reached its target value. When external disturbances were introduced to the system, the superheat target value was reached within about 3 minutes. When the EEV was applied to the air conditioning system driven by an inverter, room temperature control was excellent.

In this paper, we present a comparative analysis of surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motors (SPMSM) and interior permanent magnet synchronous motors (IPMSM). First, we use 2D finite element analysis (FEA) to analyze models satisfying the same rated conditions according to the torque-speed curve characteristics, which are determined from the operating conditions. Next, we manufacture an SPMSM and IPMSM having good performances from an electromagnetic perspective based on analysis results, namely the cogging torque, torque ripple, and efficiency. We analyze both of the manufactured machines when they are connected back-to-back and when they are used as a motor and a generator, respectively. The motor is driven by a commercial inverter and the generator is connected to a three-phase resistance load bank. Finally, based on experimental results, which include the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the back electro-motive force (EMF), cogging torque, efficiency, and mass, we determine the motor that is most suitable under requirements.

DC motor has widely been used in the field of variable-speed driving unit since it is easy to control flux and torque precisely but it is troublesome to check and maintain periodically. In addition, there are difficulties in hish power and high speed running due to rectifying limit of commutator, and are a lot of restrictions in installation. Therefore, speed control in BLDC(Brushless DC) motor has seriously been studied for a long while. In this paper, a mathematical model of BLDC motor driven by PWM inverter is developed. Dynamics and steady-state characteristics of BLDC motor are simulated and analyzed with a series of experiment for the parameter estimation : torque, speed, phase voltage and current.

With the improvement of standard of manufacturing process, oil cooling unit for manufacturing machine has been developed. A control system must be designed in order to keep oil temperature of the machine within a very restricted range and also to reduce energy consumption. In order to get the low deviation of the controlled temperature and the low efficiency, the on/off control scheme is gradually being replaced by a variable speed refrigeration system (VSRS) with an inverter driven compressor over recent decades. This paper gives the flowchart to control the compressor speed and also the electronic expansion valve (EEV) aperture in oil cooling unit refrigeration system using R22 as the refrigerant. This control scheme has already tested in experiment apparatus with room temperature condition constant at $25^{\circ}C$ and variable load condition at 4kW, 6kW, 7kW, 8kW and 10kW.

There are some previous studies that utilize constant impedance models or constant current models for electric trains to perform the static analysis of AT feeding systems. These mentioned models have some merits of linear systems but yield erroneous results because of the innate restraints of the models since linear models cannot represent the features of constant power in inverter-driven trains. From these reasons, it is suitable that the train be considered as a constant load model when it drives or as a constant source model when it applies regenerative brake. However, excessive rise of regenerative voltage during the braking may damage the vehicle itself and the feeding systems so the voltage must be restricted below a certain value. Keeping these facts in minds, we suggest new methods of analyzing AT feeding systems using the constant power models with the conditions of voltage constraints. The simulation results from a sample system using the proposed method illustrate both the states of system variables and the supply-demand relation of power among the trains and the systems very clearly, so it is believed that the proposed method yields more accurate results than conventional methods do.

In this paper, the variable speed control of permanent magnet synchronous motor driven by a sinus¬oidal PWM inverter based on maximum torque sensitivity is presented. The developed torque or speed control is achieved by the field orientation technique. For the field orientation, the resolver is used as the rotor positioning sensor mounted on the motor shaft without pull-out of the synchonism at any speed. To show the validity of proposed control method, the simulation and experimental results are provided. The advantages of the proposed control method are to achieve the fast current and speed responses.

A synchronous motor(SM) with q-axis special field winding of which the q-axis field-current compensates and cancels armature reaction can be driven at unity power factor under the conditions of transient state as well as steady state. The motor operates in high efficiency in all conditions. However, in order to obtain maximum performance of the motor, it is required that the time constant of armature circuit corresponds to that of q-axis field circuit. Inverse LQ(ILQ) design method on a basis of the pole assignment is suitable for this problem:(1) The time constants of the output responses can be designed for desired specifications, (2) Relations between feedback gains and response of closed loop system are very clear and (3) Optimal solutions can be given by simple procedure of ILQ method without solving the Ricaati's equation, compared to the usual LQ design method. Accordingly, the ILQ method can make the responses of armature current and q-axis field-current correspond. In this paper, it is proved by numerical simulations and experiments that the ILQ method is very effective for optimal regulator design of this plant and realizes a high-performance motor with unity power factor and high efficiency.

This paper addresses the output control of a utility-connected double-fed induction machine (DFIM) for wind power generation systems (WPGS). DFIM has a back-to-back converter to control outputs of DFIM driven by the wind turbine for WPGS. To supply commercially the power of WPGS to the grid without any problems related to power quality, the real and reactive powers (PQ) at the stator side of DFIM are strictly controlled at the required level, which in this paper is realized with the Fuzzy PI controller based on the field orientation control. For the Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) converter connected to the rotor side of DFIG to maintain the controllability of PQ at the state side of DFIM, the DC voltage of the DC link capacitor is also controlled at a certain level with the conventional Proportion-Integral (PI) controller of the real power. In addition, the power quality at the grid connected to the rotor side of DFIM through the back-to-back converter is maintained in a certain level with a PI controller of the reactive power. The controllers for the PQ at the stator side of DFIM, the DC link voltage of the back-to-back inverter and the reactive power at the grid connected to the rotor side of DFIM are designed and simulated in the PSIM program, of which the result verifies the performance of the proposed controllers.
