직접토크제어(DTC)가 빠른 포크 응답을 가지고있다는 것은 널리 알려진 사실이다. 이것은 기존의 벡터 제어와는 달리 공간 전압벡터에 의해 직접적으로 토크와 자속이 제어되기 때문이다. 이로 인해 직접토크제어 기법은 그것이 도입되어진 1980년대 중반 이래로 노크의 빠른 응답을 필요로 하는 분야에 점차적으로 적용되어져 왔다. 하지만 이런 장점에도 불구하고 직접토크제어는 히스테리시스 밴드, 속도 그리고 전동기 파라메타의 변화에 따른 스위칭 주파수의 변화와 토크 리플의 증가, 좋은 성능을 위한 높은 제어 주기 등의 몇 가지 단점을 가지고 있었다. 그래서 DTC의 단점들을 해결하기 위해 여러 연구들이 이루어져 왔다. 본 논문에서는 이들 단점들 중 하나인 토크리플을 개선하려한다. 다른 논문들에서도 일정 주파수를 가지는 여러 제어 기법을 사용하여 직접토크제어의 단점을 해결하려 했지만 너무 복잡하고 큰 성능을 나타내지 못했으며 몇몇 논문들은 오히려 직접토크제어의 장점인 빠른 응답성을 잃는 결과도 가져왔다. 그래서 본 논문은 간단한 개념을 가지고 토크리플을 줄이며 일정 스위칭 주파수를 가지므로 DSP를 사용하여 제어하기 용이한 직접토크제어기법을 제안하려 한다.

This paper proposes the dead time effect compensation algorithm using proportional resonant controller in pulse width modulation inverter of motor drive. To avoid a short circuit in the dc link, the dead time of the switch device is surely required. However, the dead time effect causes the phase current distortions, torque pulsations, and degradations of control performance. To solve these problems, the output current including ripple components on the synchronous reference frame and stationary reference frame are analyzed in detail. As a results, the distorted synchronous d-and q-axis currents contain the 6th, 12th, and the higher harmonic components due to the influence of dead time effect. In this paper, a new dead time effect compensation algorithm using proportional resonant controller is also proposed to reduce the output current harmonics due to the dead time and nonlinear characteristics of the switching devices. The proposed compensation algorithm does not require any additional hardware and the offline experimental measurements. The experimental results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed dead time effect compensation algorithm.

SRM has not been put into practical applications widely because of its large torque ripple, acoustic noise and low power factor. In addition, a traditional position sensor is needed for the drive control. So we propose an improved sensorless drive method of Switched Reluctance Motors using impressed voltage pulses. Conventional impressed voltage pulse method has a problem of phase delay because of low-pass filter. So in this paper we propose an unproved sensorless driving method based on the impressed voltage pulse using new pulse-shift circuit technique that overcomes the phase delay and start-up problem. Proposed method is implemented in a simple analog circuit instead of using an expensive DSP.

This paper Presents a design schemes to minimize torque ripple in 6/4 Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) using transient Finite Element Analysis (FEA) in which the magnetic field is combined with a driving circuit. Pole arcs and switching angles are major design factors. If these design factors are considered independently, the enhancement of SRM Performance is restricted. Therefore, this paper proposes not only optimal combination of stator pole arc and rotor pole arc but also the turn-on and turn-off angles as a function of pole arcs. Especially, turn-on and turn-off angle are formulated from a voltage equation and feasible design ranges are suggested with variable speed.

In performing the three-level SVPWM, it is nearly impossible to control the neutral-point potential exactly to the half of the dc-link voltage at all times. Therefore the inverter would produce an erroneous output voltage by this voltage unbalance. So the voltage unbalance has to be compensated in doing PWM, when the voltage unbalance occurs whether it is small or large, to make the inverter output voltage follow the reference voltage exactly the same. In this paper, a new compensating method for the neutral-point potential variation in a three-level inverter space vector PWM (SVPWM) is presented. By using the proposed method, the output voltage of the inverter can be made same as the reference voltage and thus the current and torque ripple of the inverter driven motor can be greatly improved even if the voltage unbalance is quite large. The proposed method is verified experimentally with a 3-level IGBT inverter.

A novel inverter fault-tolerant control scheme is proposed to drive brushless DC motor. A fault-tolerant inverter and its three fault-tolerant schemes (i.e., phase A fault-tolerant, phase B fault-tolerant, and phase C fault-tolerant) are analyzed. Eight voltage vectors are summarized and a voltage vector selection table is used in the control scheme to improve the midpoint current of the split capacitors. A stator flux observer is proposed. The observer can improve flux estimation, which does not require any speed adaptation mechanism and is immune to speed estimation error. Global stability of the flux observer is guaranteed by the Lyapunov stability analysis. A novel stator resistance estimator is incorporated into the sensorless drive to compensate for the effects of stator resistance variation. DC offset effects are mitigated by introducing an integral component in the observer gains. Finally, a control system based on the control scheme is established. Simulation and experiment results show that the method is correct and feasible.

The goal of proposed paper is the maximization of the energy conversion per stroke and torque ripple reduction and obtaining approximately flat-topped current waveform. The proposed control scheme is demonstrated simulation and on a prototype experimental system.

This paper discusses the design and control of a switched reluctance motor (SRM) drive system for a built-in car vacuum cleaner. The growing popularity of outdoor activities and recreation has led the automobile industry to expand technologies that increase the convenience of vehicles, and thus, a built-in car vacuum cleaner was introduced. However, the existing DC motor of a vacuum cleaning system has several disadvantages, such as maintenance cost and lifespan issues of its commutator-brush structure. An SRM can be a good alternative to the existing DC motor because of its high-speed capability, long lifespan, low maintenance cost, and high efficiency, among other advantages. A prototype SRM drive is designed and manufactured to verify its feasibility for use in a built-in car vacuum cleaning system. Dynamic simulation is conducted to determine the optimal switching angle for maximum efficiency and minimum torque ripple. Load test, noise measurement, and suction-power tests are also carried out.

왜곡된 역기전력을 갖는 매입형 영구자석동기전동기를 정현파 전류로 제어할 경우 역기전력의 왜곡으로 인해 발생하는 토크리플은 전동기의 진동, 소음, 효율 저하의 요인이 된다. 저속운전의 경우 토크리플을 상쇄할 수 있는 고조파전류를 인가하여 전류제어에 의해 토크리플을 줄일 수 있다. 그러나 고조파 전류제어에 의한 토크리플 저감은 전류제어기의 대역폭에 의해 전류제어 특성이 좌우되므로 고조파 보상전류의 주파수가 높은 경우 적절한 보상이 되지 않는다. 본 논문에서는 전동기의 고속운전 시 고조파 전류에 해당되는 고조파 전압을 보상함으로써 역기전력에 의한 토크리플을 저감한다. 제안된 토크리플 저감 알고리즘은 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증한다.

Motor noise is a major concern in order to improve perceptual feeling of car interior sound due to increased motor usage in passenger cars. The purpose of this study is to propose factors that can represent the acoustic performance of motor noise according to the change of load. To this end, at first, it is shown that power spectrum and total loudness are not fit for noise performance, and then, PN_B, partial loudness related to the brush friction component, and PN_R, partial loudness related to the torque ripple component are investigated as factors representing motor noise. The performance curve of motor noise using PN_B and PN_R is proposed to identify trends of motor noise according to the loads. The curve could be a guide for the noise control, the selection of motor, and the improvement of a system.
