    CHENG Ming, WANG Sasa, WANG Wei
    Journal of Electrical Engineering    2021, 16 (4): 25-32.   DOI: 10.11985/2021.04.004

    The armature windings and permanent magnets of the modular liner flux-switching permanent magnet machines (LFSPM) are placed in the primary short mover, while the secondary long stator is composed only of the conductive magnet core, which is suitable for elevators, etc. in long distance rail transport system. In the elevator drive system, the main operation is electric operation when going up, and it is often in power generation or even braking operation under the action of self-weight when going down. The alternating change of operation mode brings challenges to the position sensorless control. Therefore, based on the mathematical model of the d-q axis of the LFSPM motor, a position sensorless control system based on the model reference adaptive system (MRAS) of the LFSPM motor is established. A hybrid control strategy is designed based on operating conditions. When the elevator is going up, it adopts control with id=0. When the elevator is going down, it is in the state of light load braking power generation, the proportion of the fundamental wave in the voltage and current signal is small, so that flux-strengthening control is carried out. The id is used to adjust the proportion of the fundamental wave in the voltage and current signal to meet the requirements of speed identification. The reasons for the large error in the angle position estimation of the sensorless control system are analyzed, and a current-based compensation method is proposed. The prototype experiment results prove the effectiveness of the proposed hybrid control strategy.

    ZHANG Shengan, ZHANG Yongchang, JIAO Jian, JIANG Tao
    Journal of Electrical Engineering    2021, 16 (4): 101-107.   DOI: 10.11985/2021.04.013
    Abstract385)   HTML35)    PDF (2721KB)(437)      

    Doubly-fed induction generators have been widely used in wind power generation systems due to their low converter power, flexible active and reactive power control, and two way flow of energy. The existing vector control needs to tune multiple PI coefficients, and additionally needs to install a position sensor to obtain the rotor position and speed, which increases the volume and cost of the generator while reducing the reliability of the system. Therefore, a new solution that does not require PI setting and installation of position sensors is proposed. First, on the basis of analytically deriving the complex power differential on the stator side, the voltage reference value on the rotor side is directly calculated based on the idea of power deadbeat control without any controller setting work. Secondly, by comparing the measured rotor current with the estimated rotor current based on the stator flux current model, a position estimation method based on the rotor current model reference adaptive is constructed, thereby realizing the position sensorless control. The experimental results show that the method proposed can track the actual position and speed well under various working conditions such as sub-synchronization, super-synchronization and power step, and has excellent steady-state performance and fast dynamic response and provides the doubly-fed wind power generation system provides a low-cost, high-performance, and easy-to-apply solution.

    The multi-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor drive system has strong fault-tolerant operation ability. The non-sinusoidal back-EMF five-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor is taken as the research object. By adopting the reduced order transformation matrix, the torque equations at fundamental and the third harmonic space are constructed under the single-phase fault. And in order to eliminate the second and fourth torque ripples under the fault, the method of selecting the third harmonic current injection rate is analyzed, and the reference current are optimized according to the principle of minimum copper loss and maximum torque. In addition, to address the inability of traditional PI controller to track the AC reference current in an accurate way, a Quasi-proportional resonance (QPR) +PI controller is designed on the basis of PI control to ensure the accuracy in tracking the AC reference current in the synchronous coordinate system. The simulation results demonstrate that the torque ripple are effectively suppressed, and the QPR + PI controller can accurately track the AC current signal.

    Abstract448)   HTML10)    PDF (661KB)(485)      

    Aiming at the problem that the traditional vector control method is difficult to obtain accurate rotor position and speed, a speed research method of permanent magnet synchronous motor based on high frequency square wave injection method and improved Luenberger observer is proposed. Because of the poor stability of the high-order system, the microcomputer control is difficult. Besides, the parameters in the high-order transfer function are highly dependent on the motor parameters and controller parameters, it is difficult to have general control performance for permanent magnet synchronous motor. In order to solve these problems, the electromagnetic torque feedforward term in the Luenberger observer is replaced by a second-order system composed of speed commands, and the second-order system is obtained by the least square method. Simulation results show that the improved scheme has better tracking accuracy and robustness under load disturbance.
