Optimal Modeled Six-Phase Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation Method for Stator Voltage Harmonic Suppression
Dual Y shift 30 six-phase motors are expected to be extensively applied in high-power yet energy-effective fields, and a harmonic-suppressing control strategy plays a vital role in extending their prominent features of low losses and ultra-quiet operation. Aiming at the suppression of harmonic voltages, this paper proposes a six-phase space vector pulse width modulation method based on an optimization model, namely OM-SVPWM. First, four adjacent large vectors are employed in each of 12 sectors on a fundamental sub-plane. Second, the optimization model is constructed to intelligently determine activation durations of the four vectors, where its objective function aims to minimize the synthesis result on a harmonic sub-plane, and its constraint condition is that the synthesis result on the fundamental sub-plane satisfies a reference vector. Finally, to meet the real-time requirement, optimum solutions are obtained by using general central path following algorithm (GCPFA). Simulation and experiment results prove that, the OM-SVPWM performs around 37% better than a state-of-the-art competitive SVPWM in terms of harmonics suppression, which promise the proposed OM-SVPWM conforms to the energy-effective direction in actual engineering applications.Peer reviewe
Investigation of rotor position detection schemes for PMSM drives based on analytical machine model incorporating nonlinear saliencies
University of Technology, Sydney. Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology.This thesis presents the essential and new improvements of the machine modelling and
drive-strategies for permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs), including the
rotor position sensorless drive schemes. Many important issues about PMSM drive
schemes, from the modelling to drive design have been investigated from the machine
model point of view. A comprehensive PMSM model incorporating both structural and
magnetic saturation saliencies has been developed and expressed numerically and
analytically. Highly efficient rotor position detection method has been developed based
on the new machine model.
The traditional mathematical model of PMSM is investigated at the beginning of this
thesis for the conventional PMSM drive schemes, including six-step control, field
oriented control (FOC) and direct torque control (DTC). The fundamental principles and
improvements of the drives are summarized based on the machine model. Performance
companson is conducted for djfferent schemes and an improved DTC scheme is
developed.
PMSM drive without rotor position sensor, or so called sensorless drive, is a desired
feature for the electrical servo systems and automotive applications. The Jack of
accurate nonlinear machine model L the bottle neck for highly efficient sensorless drive
development. Experiment trial and error attempts have to be employed to design rotor
position detection schemes. On the other hand, there is not a comprehensive machine
model to assess the sensorless drive performance.
The inaccuracies associated with the conventional PMSM model have been discussed in
this thesis. The saliencies in PMSM utilized for rotor position tracking are classified as
two types, the structural saliency and the magnetic saturation saliency. The nonlinear
saturation saliency cannot be modelled in the conventional PMSM model. However, it
is essential for the rotor position estimation, especially the initial rotor position
detection. A composite function is designed to express the inductances of PMSM,
incorporating the nonlinear saturation saliency. Experimentally collected inductance
data are used to regress the parameter matrix and a numerical PMSM model is
developed.
It is then proved that the structural and saturation saliencies can be decoupled
analytically and expressed separately. The concepts, structural saliency ratio and
saturation saliency ratio are defined to indicate the magnetic saliency in PMSMs. The
analytical mathematic machine model incorporates the nonlinear behaviour of the
magnetic field of PMSMs. The proposed model is validated by the experimentally
collected data.
Based on the developed analytical nonlinear machine model, a DC voltage pulse
injection based initial rotor position detection scheme is designed and implemented.
Thanks to the comprehensive machine model, improved injection scheme is designed to
minimize the rotor vibration and increase the estimation speed. Simulation and
experiment of the novel detection method are conducted to verify the estimation
accuracy.
Finally the proposed model is applied to analyse the sensorless drive schemes for
PMSMs. The investigation focuses on high frequency signal injection based sensorless
methods. A new inj ection method is proposed based on the machine model, in which the
carrier signal is injected on a fixed stator spatial direction. The proposed sensorless
method and other reported sensorless schemes are compared based on both machine
model and simulation. According to the non1inear machine model, generalized
indicators are defined to express the drive performance, computing cost and estimation
efficiency, which provide a comprehensive assessment for sensorless drive schemes of
PMSM
Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Machine Drives
The permanent-magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) drive is one of best choices for a full range of motion control applications. For example, the PMSM is widely used in robotics, machine tools, actuators, and it is being considered in high-power applications such as industrial drives and vehicular propulsion. It is also used for residential/commercial applications. The PMSM is known for having low torque ripple, superior dynamic performance, high efficiency and high power density. Section 1 deals with the introduction of PMSM and how it is evolved from synchronous motors. Section 2 briefly discusses about the types of PMSM. Section 3 tells about the assumptions in PMSM for modeling of PMSM and it derives the equivalent circuit of PMSM. In Section 4, permanent magnet synchronous motor drive system is briefly discussed with explanation of each blocks in the systems. Section 5 reveals about the control techniques of PMSM like scalar control, vector control and simulation of PMSM driven by field-oriented control using fuzzy logic control with space vector modulation for minimizing torque ripples. PMSM control with and without rotor position sensors along with different control techniques for controlling various parameters of PMSM for different applications is presented in Section 6

This study focuses on seeing insects from the mythical perspective of the Orang Asli tribe of Jakun, Kampung Peta, Mersing Johor. The existence of insects in the life of every ethnic in Malaysia has brought various elements of myths. Therefore, when combining myths and insects, it could be said that myth is a human way of understanding, expressing and linking insects to him/herself as well as a group/culture. The practice of using insects among ethnic groups in daily life is called etnoentomology. In this study, the insects studied are the butterfly (Lepidoptera), the odonates (Odonata) and the cicadas (Homoptera). This is because these insects are very popular in the community and have their own myths that are brought into the local culture of belief
Comparison of Interior Mounted Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Drives with Sinusoidal, Third Harmonic Injection, and Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation Strategies with particular attention to Current Distortions and Torque Ripples
Interior Mounted Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (IPMs) have become popular in electric vehicle traction applications in recent years due to their superior features such as high efficiency and high power density compared to other machines. Therefore, development of IPM drive systems is an important research area. In this study, three different pulse width modulation (PWM) strategies commonly used in machine drives are compared extensively in IPM drives. Simulations have been carried out with optimum dq-axes currents based on demanded torque from the system, and hence, the simulated drives are efficiency-optimized. Sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM), third harmonic injection pulse width modulation (THIPWM), and space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) strategies have been employed in the drives, and comparisons have been made by paying particular attention to the total harmonic distortion (THD) rates of phase currents and torque ripples. It has been validated through extensive simulations that the SVPWM strategy has less THD percentage for IPM drives than SPWM and THIPWM at wide operating points, and hence, the current and torque responses are better with smooth output torque. Simulation results also validate that the current distortions and torque ripples are the highest when SPWM strategy is adopted in the drives, and hence, the THIPWM strategy is superior to the SPWM. © 2023 Istanbul University.

ANFIS based Direct Torque Control of PMSM Motor for Speed and Torque Regulation
Nowadays, the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM) are gaining popularity among electric motors due to their high efficiency, high-speed operation, ruggedness, and small size. PMSM motors comprise a trapezoidal electromotive force which is also called synchronous motors. Direct Torque Control (DTC) has been extensively applied in speed regulation systems due to its better dynamic behavior. The controller manages the amplitude of torque and stator flux directly using the direct axis current. To manage the motor speed, the torque error, flux error, and projected location of flux linkage are employed to adjust the inverter switching sequence via Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM). One of the most common problems encountered in a PMSM motor is Torque ripple, which is recreated by power electronic commutation and a better controller reduces the ripples to increase the drive's performance. Conventional controllers such as PI, PID and SVPWM-DTC were compared with the proposed Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) in terms of performance measures such as speed and torque ripple. In this work, the Two-Gaussian membership function of the ANFIS controller is used in conjunction with a PMSM motor to reduce torque ripple up to 0.53 Nm and maintain the speed with a distortion error of 2.33 %
The investigation of electromagnetic radial force and associated vibration in permanent magnet synchronous machines
The rising public awareness of climate change and urban air pollution has been one
of the key drivers for transport electrification. Such trend drastically accelerates the
quest for high-power-and-torque-density electric drive systems. The rare-earth permanent
magnet synchronous machine, with its excellent steady-state and dynamic
characteristics, has been the ideal candidate for these applications. Specifically, the
fractional-slot and concentrated-winding configuration is widely adopted due to its
distinctive merits such as short end winding, low torque pulsation, and high efficiency.
The vibration and the associated acoustic noise become one of the main
parasitic issues of high-performance permanent magnet synchronous drives. These
undesirable features mainly arise from mechanical connection failure, imperfect assembly,
torque pulsation, and electromagnetic radial and axial force density waves.
The high-power-and-torque-density requirement will only be ultimately fulfilled by
the reduction of both electromagnetic active material and passive support structure.
This results in inflated electromagnetic force density inside the electric machine.
Besides, the sti.ness of the machine parts can be compromised and the resultant
natural frequencies are significantly brought down. Therefore, the vibration and
acoustic noise that are associated with the electromagnetic radial and axial force
density waves become a burden for large deployment of these drives.
This study is mainly dedicated to the investigation of the electromagnetic radial
forced density and its associated vibration and acoustic noise in radial-flux permanent
magnet synchronous machines. These machines are usually powered by voltage
source inverter with pulse width modulation techniques and various control strategies.
Consequently, the vibration problem not only lies on the permanent magnet
synchronous machine but also highly relates to its drive and controller. Generally,
the electromagnetic radial force density and its relevant vibration can be divided
into low-frequency and high-frequency components based on their origins. The
low-frequency electromagnetic radial force density waves stem from the magnetic
field components by the permanent magnets and armature reaction of fundamental
and phase-belt current harmonic components, while the high-frequency ones are
introduced by the interactions between the main low-frequency and sideband highfrequency
magnetic field components.
Both permanent magnets and armature reaction current are the main sources of
magnetic field in electric machines. Various drive-level modeling techniques are first reviewed, explored, and developed to evaluate the current harmonic components
of the permanent magnet synchronous machine drive. Meanwhile, a simple
yet e.ective analytical model is derived to promptly estimate the sideband current
harmonic components in the drive with both sinusoidal and space-vector pulse
width modulation techniques. An improved analytical method is also proposed to
predict the magnetic field from permanent magnets in interior permanent magnet
synchronous machines. Moreover, a universal permeance model is analytically developed
to obtain the corresponding armature-reaction magnetic field components.
With the permanent magnet and armature-reaction magnetic field components, the
main electromagnetic radial force density components can be identified and estimated
based on Maxwell stress tensor theory.
The stator tooth structure has large impacts on both electromagnetic radial force
density components and mechanical vibration behaviors. The stator tooth modulation
e.ect has been comprehensively demonstrated and explained by both finite
element analysis and experimental results. Analytical models of such e.ect are developed
for prompt evaluation and insightful revelation. Based on the proposed
models, multi-physics approaches are proposed to accurately predict low-frequency
and high-frequency electromagnetic radial vibration. Such method is quite versatile
and applicable for both integral-slot and fractional-slot concentrated-winding
permanent magnet synchronous machines. Comprehensive experimental results are
provided to underpin the validity of the proposed models and methods.
This study commences on the derivations of the drive parameters such as torque angle,
modulation index, and current harmonic components from circuit perspective
and further progresses to evaluate and decouple the air-gap magnetic field components
from field perspective. It carries on to dwell on the analytical estimations of
the main critical electromagnetic radial force density components and stator tooth
modulation e.ect. Based on the stator mechanical structure, the corresponding electromagnetic
radial vibration and acoustic noise can be accurately predicted. Various
analytical models have been developed throughout this study to provide a systematic
tool for quick and e.ective investigation of electromagnetic radial force density,
the associated vibration and acoustic noise in permanent magnet synchronous machine
drive. They have all been rigorously validated by finite element analysis and
experimental results. Besides, this study reveals not only a universal approach for
electromagnetic radial vibration analysis but also insightful correlations from both
machine and drive perspectives

University of Technology Sydney. Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology.The rapid advancement of the very large scale integration (VLSI) technology and electronic design automation techniques in recent years has made a significant impact on the development of complex and compact high performance control architecture for industrial motion systems.
Specific hardware with the field programmable gate array (FPGA) technology is now considered as a promising solution in order to make use of the reliability and versatility of controllers. Indeed, FPGAs have been successfully used in many control applications such as power converter control and electrical machines control. This is because such an FPGA-based implementation can offer an effective reprogrammable capability and overcome disadvantages of microprocessor-based or digital signal processor-based embedded systems.
This thesis aims to provide a proof-of-concept for the control-system-on-chip and a prototype for a fully-implemented FPGA control architecture for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives. In this thesis, a special focus is given on analytical effects, design procedure, and control performance enhancement for PMSM drives under sensor/sensorless vector control using a number of control techniques.
The control schemes include FPGA-based intelligent control and robust cascade control for single axis and multiple axis tracking with PMSMs. An important contribution of this thesis rests with a convincing demonstration of high performance estimation schemes, using sliding mode observers and extended Kalman filters, in terms of accuracy and robustness against noisy and/or perturbed currents for sensorless PMSM control based on the FPGA technology. In addition, a sequential finite state machine is developed in this work to result in less logic gate resources, leading to a faster processing time.
