In this paper, a new field weakening algorithm which maximizes the output torque not only in steady state b but also in transient state is proposed. Considering both voltage and current limit of system, analytic solutions f for optimal torque utilization in field weakening region I and region II are obtained. This algorithm finds optimal currents considering dynamic vol떠ge limit based on flux and speed. So the maximum usage of stator v voltage even in transient state results in the maximum torque and fast response time. Simulation and e experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed field weakening scheme.

In this paper, a new approach for the induction machine control whih ensures producing maximum torque per ampere over the entire field weakening region is presented. In addition, the relation of the output torque capability with the leakage factor of the machine is examined. Also the smooth and precise transition into the field weakening operation can be achieved by adjusting the base speed for the field weakening operation according to the flux level, the current limit and the voltage limit. The proposed is verified through simulation and experiment for a 5hp laboratory induction motor drive system.

Stator Transient inductance has much influence on rotor flux orientation. In this paper, a new simple on-line tuning scheme of inductances including stator transient inductance for rotor flux orientation control is proposed. Detuned effects caused by inductance variations are shown and simple on-line tuning scheme of them is proposed. Inductances are estimated and tuned by only stator flux and stator current. The proposed scheme is effective in wide speed region including the field weakening region. The proposed on-line tuning scheme is confirmed by the simulation and experiment results.

팬(fan), 펌프(pump), 블로어(blower), 전기 자동차(electric/hybrid vehicle), 전동차와 같은 다양한 분야에서 3상 전동기의 고속 운전에 대한 요구가 증대되고 있다. 일반적으로 3상 전동기가 정격 속도 이상의 고속에서 운전하기 위해서는 회전자 자속(rotor flux)의 크기를 운전 상황에 따라 감소시키는 약자속(flux weakening) 제어가 필수적이다. 유도 전동기의 회전자 자속 기준 벡터 제어 시의 약자속 운전은 자속 성분 전류의 크기를 제어하여 유도 전동기의 고속 운전을 가능하게 하는데, 이러한 전류 제어 기반의 약자속 제어는 그 구조가 복잡하고, 제어기 이득 선정에 따른 동특성(dynamic)이 영향울 받는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 개선하기 위한 순시적 약자속 제어 방법을 제안하고 3.7kW 유도 전동기를 이용한 실험을 통하여 제안된 방식의 성능을 검증한다.

It is important to estimate the rotor speed for field weakening operation in the speed sensorless stator flux oriented (SFO) induction motor drive. Several methods have been reported to estimate exactly the speed in the speed sensorless system. In this paper, we apply two observer-based methods, the Luenberger observer (LO) and the Kalman filter (KF), to SFO induction motor drive in order to achieve a speed sensorless operation in field weakening region. Two control methods are reviewed and discussed. The operation characteristics of these methods in the field weakening region is compared by simulation and experiment.

In view of the speed control characteristics of induction traction motors and the problems of direct torque control (DTC) algorithms in current applications, this paper presents a DTC algorithm characterized by a symmetrical polygon flux control and a closed loop power control in the constant-torque base speed region and constant-power field-weakening region of induction traction motors. This algorithm only needs to add a stator flux control algorithm to the traditional DTC structures. This has the benefit of simplicity, while maintaining the features of traditional algorithms such as a rapid dynamic response, uncomplicated control circuit, reduced dependence on motor parameters, etc. In addition, it obtains a smoother flux trajectory that is conducive to improvement of the harmonic elimination capability, the switching frequency utilization as well as the torque and power performance in the field-weakening region. The effectiveness and feasibility of this DTC algorithm are demonstrated by both theoretical analysis and experimental results.

Three phase PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) converter of the small-scale wind power system is able to charge battery under the rated wind speed regions. However, it is impossible to control output power of converter at the over win speed region because back-EMF(Electro Motive Force) of PMSG(Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator) is higher than the battery terminal voltage of PMSG is reduced. However, the cut-off wind speed exists although battery charging algorithm is implemented by flux weakening control method. Therefore, this paper performs analysis of other factors which affects limitation wind speed. The validity of the analysis are verified through simulation.

This paper presents a novel concept of phase swapping to associate multiple flux weakening ranges to a non-salient PM machine without altering any hardware of the machine. The proposed concept enables a dual three-phase machine to be operated with different displacement angles between the two three-phase windings. Hence, different flux weakening ranges using winding switching can be accomplished by applying this concept. It was also demonstrated that the proposed concept can be utilized for the discrete step as well as continuous operation of the machines. Any application requiring a wide speed range operation of up to thirteen times the base speed can benefit from this proposed concept. Analytical, simulation, and experimental results are provided to validate the effectiveness of the proposed concept.

This paper presents a new permanent magnet (PM) assisted topology for a recently introduced brushless wound rotor synchronous machine (BL-WRSM) [1]. The BL-WRSM had a dual-inverter configuration for generating a composite magneto motive force (MMF) with a fundamental component and a subharmonic component. The subharmonic component of the MMF is used for brushless excitation of the rotor. In this paper, additional PMs were introduced on the rotor of the BL-WRSM, making it a hybrid BL-WRSM. We also discussed the flux weakening operation for the hybrid BL-WRSM. The hybrid BL-WRSM offered advantages for starting the machine and provided better performance under full-load conditions. The finite element method (FEM) was used to analyze the performance of the hybrid BL-WRSM, and we compared its performance with BL-WRSM. Finally, prototypes were built with and without the PM-assistance, and experiments were conducted to demonstrate their performance.
