A new instantaneous torque control of PM synchronous motor forhigh-performance direct-drive applications

A new instantaneous torque-control strategy is presented for high-performance control of a permanent magnet (PM) synchronous motor. In order to deal with the torque pulsating problem of a PM synchronous motor in a low-speed region, new torque estimation and control techniques are proposed. The linkage flux of a PM synchronous motor is estimated using a model reference adaptive system technique, and the developed torque is instantaneously controlled by the proposed torque controller combining a variable structure control (VSC) with a space-vector pulse-width modulation (PWM). The proposed control provides the advantage of reducing the torque pulsation caused by the nonsinusoidal flux distribution. This control strategy is applied to the high-torque PM synchronous motor drive system for direct-drive applications and implemented by using a software of the digital signal processor (DSP) TMS320C30. The simulations and experiments are carried out for this system, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control     

Speed control system design and experimentation for interior PMSM drives

This paper presents a robust speed-control strategy using a Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy model for interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drives. The sufficient conditions of linear matrix inequalities, which can guarantee the existence of the fuzzy controller gains, are derived from a common quadratic Lyapunov function. Moreover, the maximum torque per ampere control is incorporated to improve the torque production in the constant torque region and the efficiency of the IPMSM drive. The global stability of an observer-based control system is analytically proven. Simulations and experiments are conducted to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach through a prototype IPMSM drive system. Consequently, the proposed fuzzy control methodology can achieve less steady-state error and less sensitivity than the conventional feedback linearisation control method under motor parameter variations and external disturbances.     

Sensorless torque control of SyncRel motor drives

This paper describes a direct self-control (DSC) scheme for synchronous reluctance motor drives. The presented DSC scheme develops a new torque control methodology that does not require any position transducer to synchronize the stator current vector with the rotor. Such a control strategy differs from the conventional DSC approach in order to fit some specific requirements of synchronous reluctance (SyncRel) machines. First, torque and rotor position are controlled instead of torque and stator flux as in a conventional DSC scheme. Second, the operating sector is selected according to the actual position of the current vector rather than the position of the stator flux. The proposed methodology allows simplifying implementation of the torque control on SyncRel drives and reducing the global cost for medium-performance electric drives. Simulations and experimental tests on a 1.5-kW motor drive are provided to evaluate the consistency and the performance of the proposed control technique     

Variable-structure direct torque control - a class of fast and robust controllers for induction machine drives

A family of variable-structure controllers for induction machine drives is presented, in which the principles of direct torque control (DTC), variable-structure control (VSC), and space-vector pulsewidth modulation are combined to ensure high-performance operation, both in the steady state and under transient conditions. Three new VSC schemes are designed following the DTC voltage-control-based philosophy. These provide robust, fast, and accurate torque and flux control, without the penalty of high chattering. Comparative results demonstrate that proposed techniques preserve the DTC transient merits, while the steady-state behavior is significantly improved. Experimental results prove the strong robustness, accuracy, quickness, and low-ripple sensor-less operation of a drive that uses the new schemes.     

A novel CSI-fed induction motor drive

Current source inverter (CSI) fed drives are employed in high power applications. The conventional CSI drives suffer from drawbacks such as harmonic resonance, unstable operation at low speed ranges, and torque pulsation. This paper presents a novel CSI drive which overcomes all these drawbacks and results in sinusoidal motor voltage and current even with CSI switching at fundamental frequency. The proposed CSI drive uses a three-level inverter as an active filter across motor terminals replacing the bulky ac capacitors used in the conventional drive. A sensorless vector controlled CSI drive based on proposed configuration is developed. The simulation and experimental results are presented. Experimental results show that the proposed drive has stable operation even at low speeds. Comparative results show that the proposed CSI drive has improved torque ripple compared to the conventional configuration.     

Variable flux control of permanent magnet synchronous motor drivesfor constant torque operation

In this paper, a small signal model of permanent magnet synchronous machines is developed which includes both components of torque, i.e., magnet torque and reluctance torque. The effects of flux variations on the torque are analyzed by the use of the developed model. The off-line torque compensation method proposed for induction machines is then adapted to permanent magnet motor drives to achieve a constant torque, variable flux operation of the drives. A sensitivity analysis is performed to show that the off-line method is influenced considerably by machine parameter variations. Therefore the concept of forced compensation is introduced and an on-line torque compensation controller is proposed. Simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed controller. An experimental vector controlled permanent magnet motor drive including the on-line torque compensation controller is implemented based on a TMS320C31 DSP to evaluate the method. The experimental results also confirm a desirable variable flux control of the motor drive under constant torque operation     

Robust fuzzy neural network sliding mode control scheme for IPMSM drives

This article proposes a robust fuzzy neural network sliding mode control (FNNSMC) law for interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drives. The proposed control strategy not only guarantees accurate and fast command speed tracking but also it ensures the robustness to system uncertainties and sudden speed and load changes. The proposed speed controller encompasses three control terms: a decoupling control term which compensates for nonlinear coupling factors using nominal parameters, a fuzzy neural network (FNN) control term which approximates the ideal control components and a sliding mode control (SMC) term which is proposed to compensate for the errors of that approximation. Next, an online FNN training methodology, which is developed using the Lyapunov stability theorem and the gradient descent method, is proposed to enhance the learning capability of the FNN. Moreover, the maximum torque per ampere (MTPA) control is incorporated to maximise the torque generation in the constant torque region and increase the efficiency of the IPMSM drives. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed robust FNNSMC, simulations and experiments are performed by using MATLAB/Simulink platform and a TI TMS320F28335 DSP on a prototype IPMSM drive setup, respectively. Finally, the simulated and experimental results indicate that the proposed design scheme can achieve much better control performances (e.g. more rapid transient response and smaller steady-state error) when compared to the conventional SMC method, especially in the case that there exist system uncertainties.     

Control and dynamics of constant-power-loss-based operation ofpermanent-magnet synchronous motor drive system

The operational envelope of electrical machines is limited by the maximum permissible power loss of the machine at any given speed. The control and dynamics of the permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive operating with a maximum power loss versus speed profile is proposed in this paper. The proposed operational strategy is modeled and analyzed. Its comparison to the conventional strategy of limiting current and power to rated values demonstrates the superiority of the proposed scheme. The implementation of the proposed strategy is developed. It is achieved with an outer power loss feedback control loop. This has the advantage of retrofitting the present PMSM drives with the least amount of software/hardware effort. The PMSM drives in this case then can use the existing controllers to implement any torque control criteria, such as constant torque angle, unity power factor, constant air-gap flux linkages, maximum torque per unit current, or maximum-efficiency operation. Experimental verification of the new operational strategy is provided. The concepts presented in this paper can be applied to all other types of motor drives     

A dead-beat type digital controller for the direct torque control of an induction motor

In this paper, a dead-beat type digital controller has been introduced to overcome the problems of a conventional direct torque controller. The proposed induction motor drive with a digital dead-beat controller shows good transient response and negligible steady-state error even at a low switching frequency, which is needed for high power machines used for transportation. Including the rotor dynamics, the stability condition and steady-state error of the proposed control system have been examined in the z-plane. In addition, the good performance has been verified through the simulation and experiment. The flux and torque controllers have been designed with only stator voltage equations in the stator flux reference frame in order to take advantages of the direct torque control. Therefore, the proposed flux and torque controllers have simple forms and can be easily designed and implemented.     

Performance evaluation of a direct torque controlled drive in thecontinuous PWM-square wave transition region

This paper investigates the operation of a direct torque controlled drive when operating under transient conditions and when operating in overmodulation conditions or in the “transition region” to six-step operation. The direct torque control is a dead-beat control of the torque and flux magnitude. In the steady-state, the stator voltage vector which drives the torque and flux to the reference value is calculated during each fixed switching period. Under transient or overmodulation conditions, an alternative switching algorithm must be used since dead-beat control is no longer possible. Two alternatives are presented for operation in overmodulation. The first involves a determination of the switching state a priori, and calculating the duty cycle for each phase based on the torque and flux error. A much simpler scheme is presented which utilizes the voltage reference vector from the direct torque control algorithm. This scheme, although not resulting in dead-beat control, is shown to provide very satisfactory performance in overmodulation. The direct torque control method shows great promise for light traction applications where a large quasi-constant power region is required. The scheme operates very satisfactorily in overmodulation, compared with existing current regulated PWM-based schemes, due to the fact that the voltage space vectors are directly controlled. A complete experimental evaluation of the proposed scheme operating in the transition region is also given
