Online Minimum-Copper-Loss Control of an Interior Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Machine for Automotive Applications

This paper presents an algorithm to calculate the current references on line, considering the inherent nonlinear nature of the saturation effect in an interior permanent-magnet synchronous machine for the minimum-copper-loss control under the current and voltage limit of the drive system. This paper basically approaches this issue as a nonlinearly constrained optimization problem where the torque command imposes the nonlinear equality constraint and the voltage limit imposes the nonlinear inequality constraint. Depending on the operating region, it solves the corresponding set of nonlinear equations in real time derived from the Lagrange multiplier method. Newton's method among various techniques is adopted to implement the numerical solution. This scheme gives accurate results not only in motoring but also in generating operation of the machine, since the voltage drop of the stator resistance is taken into account, which is hardly applicable to a two-dimensional lookup table where the inputs are the torque command and the maximum flux amplitude, and the output is each axis current reference in the rotor reference frame. The simulation and experimental results show the feasibility and performance of the proposed technique.

Generalized analysis of operating limits on PM motors and suitable machine parameters for constant-power operation

Permanent magnet synchronous motors (PM motors) are widely used in industrial applications. Some applications such as electric vehicles and compressor drives require constant-power operation. The available maximum power under specified voltage and current constraints can be obtained by optimal current vector control, such as maximum torque control and flux-weakening control. The operating limits, however, strongly depend on the machine parameters. This paper examines the relationships between the machine parameters and the output characteristics. It is shown that the power-versus-speed characteristic depends only on the difference between the magnet flux linkage and the maximum flux linkage of the d-axis armature reaction. The maximum torque and the constant-power operating range are obtained as functions of this difference. The optimal machine parameters and the design of PM motors for constant power operation are discussed based on the overall analytical results and on analyses that takes into account both copper loss and core loss in light-load operation. © 1998 Scripta Technica.

Effect of the Selection of Input Voltage and Maximum Operating Flux Density of Different Core Material on the Optimum Design of Switching Power Converter

The effects of using different input voltage and different core material of different saturation flux density on the switching power converter weight minimization are presented. The design- oriented sensitivity analysis by perturbing the operating point, for example, the input voltage and the maximum flux density, reveals valuable design insights into the switching power converter global design optimization. A cost-effective computer-aided nonlinear programming (NLP) design technique is utilized for the minimum weight design. The new topology Cuk switching converter is taken as a demonstration example. Detailed loss and weight breakdowns as a function of the input voltage and the operating flux density are calculated for the optimum operation. Significant differences of the overall power converter performances are observed by using different input voltages and saturation flux densities.

Stator-flux-based vector control of induction machines in magneticsaturation

In many variable-torque applications of induction machines, it is desirable to operate the machine at high flux levels, thus allowing the machine to produce higher torques. This can lead to saturation of the main flux path, introducing cross-coupling effects which can severely disrupt the performance of controllers dependent on knowledge of the machine's magnetic parameters. Stator flux-oriented torque-control schemes need not depend on the magnetic parameters of the machine and, hence, are potentially more robust and easier to implement in magnetic saturation than rotor-flux-oriented control. In this paper, the authors present and analyze a stator-flux-oriented torque-control scheme. This controller only requires knowledge of the stator voltage, stator current, and stator resistance. An analytical expression for the maximum achievable torque output of the machine using a linear magnetics model is compared with values calculated using a nonlinear magnetics model incorporating saturation of the main flux path and is shown to be a good approximation at high flux levels, when the main flux path is heavily saturated. Experiments carried out on a 3 hp 1800 RPM wound-rotor induction machine show smooth operation of the control scheme at torque levels up to at least four times rated torque     

Sensorless induction machine observation with nonlinear magnetic characteristic

This paper addresses the problem of state estimation in induction motors. Generally, the motor observer design has been dealt based on standard models neglecting the saturation effect in the magnetic characteristic. As a matter of fact, magnetic saturation cannot be ignored especially when considering control strategies (speed and torque) that involve large flux variations. Such large flux variations are necessary to meet optimal operation conditions in the presence of wide range load torque changes. On the other hand, it is well known that use of mechanical (speed and torque) sensors entails reliability issues. In this paper, a new sensorless adaptive observer is designed for induction machine based on a model that accounts for the nonlinear feature in the magnetic circuit. The observer consists of two interconnected state‐dependent gain observers and is formally shown to provide accurate estimates of the mechanical and magnetic variables using only stator current and voltage measurements.

Flux-Weakening Regime Operation of an Interior Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Motor Drive

The interior permanent magnet (IPM) synchronous motor is compatible with extended-speed-range constant-power operation by means of flux-weakening control. Flux weakening uses stator current components to counter the fixed-amplitude magnetic airgap flux generated by the rotor magnets, performing a role similar to field weakening in a separately excited dc motor. The nature of current regulator saturation caused by the finite inverter dc source voltage is described, marked by premature torque and power degradation at high speeds in the absence of flux-weakening control. This is followed by presentation of a new flux-weakening control algorithm developed as a modification of an established feedforward IPM torque control algorithm described previously in the literature. Attractive features of this new algorithm include smooth drive transitions into and out of the flux-weakening mode, fast response, as well as automatic adjustment to changes in the dc source voltage. Simulation and empirical test results from a 3-hp laboratory IPM motor drive are used to confirm the constant-power operating envelope achieved using the new flux-weakening control algorithm.     

Optimum torque control of permanent-magnet AC Machines in the field-weakened region

This paper presents a novel current regulation algorithm for permanent-magnet ac (PMAC) machines that provides maximum torque-per-ampere capability in the entire field-weakened region. The algorithm provides robust current regulation with maximum efficiency and torque capability for PMAC machines despite significant changes in the voltage source and machine parameters. The algorithm identifies when the current regulator starts to saturate and determines the optimum d-axis current command for the machine. The q-axis current command is determined from the torque command and d-axis current feedback. When the voltage angle reaches the maximum angle, the current magnitude is decreased to provide maximum torque per ampere. Experimental results from a machine prototype show that the algorithm provides good overall dynamic response and smooth transitions into the field-weakened region with maximum torque-per-ampere capability in all four quadrants of operation.

Direct Flux and Torque Regulation in a PWM Inverter-Induction Motor Drive

A dc motor drive is controlled by varying the armature current and field current. The field is a measure of flux, and the armature current times field current is a measure of torque. Various approximate means of estimating the flux and torque levels in an induction motor exist. Most of these methods are sensitive to motor parameter value changes and do not work well near zero speed. Also, the harmonics in the motor voltage and current due to the nonsinusoidal inverter waveform cause errors in the estimated torque. A practical method has been developed to measure the flux level in an induction motor in the actual operating environment. Using the flux signals and stator current, the actual electromagnetic torque can be obtained. This torque signal responds correctly to motor saturation and inverter voltage waveform harmonics. The motor can be designed to operate without the customarily required flux margin, since the flux level is accurately controlled. The control strategy for use with these feedback signals does not require the use of a tachometer.     

Selection of Flux Level in Field-Oriented Induction Machine Controllers with Consideration of Magnetic Saturation Effects

The magnitude of rotor flux is a primary design and application variable for field-oriented induction machine controllers. Optimization of a nonsaturating machine controller for peak torque/A will lead to operation at the peak of the constant current torque-versus-slip curve. It is shown how flux level selection for both standard and high efficiency motors is altered by including saturation characteristics. Theoretical and experimental approaches for calculation of flux-producing current in the presence of magnetic saturation are presented. The theoretical method includes a straightforward two-parameter saturation model, which is demonstrated to possess characteristics very close to experimental data. This approach contributes substantial insight to saturated machine analysis while retaining relative simplicity as a design tool. The experimental approaches developed are straightforward and general.
