Full textField oriented control (FOC) and direct torque control (DTC) are the two most important control strategies for modern advanced machine drives. Field oriented control (FOC) has been widely used as the industrial motor drives. The direct torque control has been recently developed by Takashi and has shown great potential in machine drive applications. This thesis discusses the performances of direct torque control on AC machine drives including the industrial workhorse induction machines (IM) and permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM). Both of the IM and PMSM dynamics models are derived in details in the thesis. By applying nonlinear filtering techniques, the sensorless direct torque control of AC machine drives are studied. MATLAB simulations have shown the efficacy and superior performance of the resilient extended Kalman filter over the traditional extended Kalman filter for direct torque control applications.

Full textLa prise de conscience de la responsabilité humaine dans le réchauffement climatique est à la source de nombreuses initiatives publiques et privées parfois internationales pour réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre. Dans ce contexte, le développement de technologies durables dans deux secteurs à forte empreinte écologique est visé: la production d'énergie électrique et les transports. Dans le premier secteur, la progression de l'éolien est à présent la plus rapide parmi toutes les énergies renouvelables. Cependant, les éoliennes souffrent d'un manque global de fiabilité et d'accessibilité par rapport aux centrales électriques classiques, ce qui conduit potentiellement à des pertes de production et des coûts de réparation importants. La première partie de ce travail se focalise sur l'amélioration de la chaîne électrique en la rendant tolérante aux défauts de capteurs au moyen de la combinaison d'un estimateur et d'un algorithme de détection de défauts, tirant avantage de la redondance de mesures déjà présente sur les entraînements à machines asynchrones à double alimentation (MADA). Les estimateurs et la détection et l'isolation de défauts de capteurs sur les MADA a fait l'objet de nombreuses publications scientifiques. Cependant, la plupart d'entre elles considèrent un seul type de mesure et peu de travaux prennent en compte la saturation magnétique. Une nouvelle combinaison d'un observateur et d'un algorithme de détection de défauts de type ‘CUSUM', considérant la saturation magnétique et nécessitant une puissance de calcul limitée, est proposée dans cette thèse pour l'estimation du couple électromagnétique, des courants et de la position rotoriques en vue d'obtenir la tolérance aux défauts de capteurs. Cet algorithme est validé en régime permanent et cas de transitoires modérés, de tensions du réseau déséquilibrées et d'erreurs d'estimation des paramètres de laMADA. L'estimateur est aussi capable de démarrer seul lors du démarrage de la génératrice. Dans le secteur des transports, des véhicules hybrides et électriques commencent à être visibles sur les routes, malgré que des progrès technologiques importants en termes d'autonomie, de performances, mais aussi de bruits et vibrations soient encore nécessaires pour une utilisation plus intensive. L'objectif de la deuxième partie de cette thèse se rapporte à ce dernier défi et consiste à analyser les aspects acoustiques et vibratoires d'une machine à réluctance variable 8/6 conçue pour propulser un véhicule électrique. Ces problèmes acoustiques et vibratoires, qui limitent notamment l'usage de telles machines dans des applications de propulsion, ont été l'objet de divers articles scientifiques. Cependant, la plupart d'entre eux sont focalisés sur des analyses modales ou de phénomènes particuliers, alors qu'une évaluation globale des problèmes de bruit et de vibration des machines à réluctance variable en conditions normales de fonctionnement est rarement proposée, de même que l'utilisation de critères de qualité sonore. Une méthode expérimentale globale et relativement rapide pour évaluer l'évolution du bruit et des vibrations est proposée dans ce travail. Les essais sont réalisés en régime transitoire pour exciter une large bande de fréquences et en faisant varier continuellement, quand cela est possible, les conditions de fonctionnement. Les courants, vibrations radiales et bruits acoustiques résultants sont présentés sous formes de cartographies couleur pour une distinction aisée des fréquences affectées et non-affectées et comparés aux niveaux calculés de bruyance et d'acuité correspondants. Par ailleurs, la mise en place d'un nouveau régulateur à hystérèse en courant à plus grande fréquence d'échantillonnage a permis d'améliorer la qualité de la commande et du bruit acoustique associé en réduisant l'amplitude des oscillations de courant et l'excitation des fréquences de résonance. Les essais montrent que la fréquence de commutation doit être suffisamment élevée pour éviter l'excitation du mode d'ovalisation de la machine, mais pas trop pour éviter une trop grande acuité du son produit. L'amplitude des oscillations doit aussi être considérée pour limiter la bruyance. En conséquence, une commande en ‘soft chopping', ou une tension réduite du bus continu à basse vitesse, doit être combinée à une bande d'hystérèse relativement faible. Enfin, le cas d'un défaut de phase ouverte a été étudié et a montré une amplification des ordres pairs du courant dans les spectres vibratoires et acoustiques.
De bewustwording van de menselijke verantwoordelijkheid in de opwarming van de aarde heeft tot verschillende private en publieke initiatieven geleid om de uitstoot van broeikasgassen te verminderen. In deze context is de ontwikkeling van hernieuwbare technologieën hoofdzakelijk gericht op twee sectoren met een belangrijke ecologische impact: elektriciteitsproductie en transport.In de eerste sector ontwikkelt windenergie zich op dit moment sneller dan alle andere hernieuwbare energieën. Maar windturbines lijden nog steeds aan een gebrek aan betrouwbaarheid en toegankelijkheid, en dus aan potentieel hogere productieverliezen en herstelkosten, als ze met klassieke krachtcentrales worden vergeleken. In het eerste deel van deze doctoraatsthesis wordt op de verbetering van de elektrische keten geconcentreerd door de combinatie van een schatter en een foutdetectie- en -isolatiealgoritme (FDI-algoritme) om sensorfouttolerantie te verkrijgen dankzij de reeds aanwezige meetovertolligheid op dubbelgevoede inductiemachine (DFIG) aandrijvingen.Schatters en sensor-FDI-algoritmen zijn het onderwerp van vele wetenschappelijke artikelen geweest. Meestal wordt maar één sensortype beschouwd en met de magnetische verzadiging wordt niet vaak rekening gehouden. Een nieuwe combinatie van een schatter met gesloten terugkoppeling en een FDI-techniek gebaseerd op het ‘cumulative-sum' principe is voorgesteld. Zo kan het elektromagnetische koppel, de rotorstromen en positie worden geschat voor sensor FDI en fouttolerantie met beperkte rekenkosten en zonder de magnetische verzadering te verwaarlozen. Het algoritme wordt in stabiele toestand gevalideerd, maar ook in het geval van gematigde transiënte situaties, onevenwichtige netwerkomstandigheden en een verkeerde schatting van DFIG parameters. Het kan ook vanzelf starten tijdens de startprocedure van de generator.In de vervoersector beginnen hybride en elektrische voertuigen op de wegen te rijden. Maar vooreen intensiever gebruik van zo'n wagens zijn er nog technologische verbeteringen nodig met betrekking tot autonomie, prestaties en ook geluid en trillingen (NVH). Het tweede deel van de thesis betreft die laatste uitdaging en bestaat uit het experimentele onderzoek van geluid en trillingen op een 8/6 variabelereluctantiemachine (SRM) ontwikkeld voor elektrische voertuigen.De NVH-problemen van SRM's beperken hun gebruik in automobiele en andere toepassingen enonderzoek wordt erover voortgezet. Vele wetenschappelijke artikelen focussen toch op modale analyse of gedetailleerde fenomenen terwijl een globale evaluatie van NVH aspecten in SRM's in gewone operatiecondities nauwelijks wordt gemaakt. Hetzelfde geldt voor het gebruik van reproduceerbare geluidsmetrieken. Een globale en vrij vlugge experimentele methode is hier voorgesteld om het NVH gedrag te schatten. Testen worden in transiënte situaties uitgevoerd om een brede frequentieband te exciteren, indien mogelijk met voortdurend variërende condities. De gemeten fasestroom, trilling en geluid worden als kleurmappen geplot om het verschil tussen beïnvloede en niet geaffecteerde frequenties te vergemakkelijken en met de berekende akoestische luidheid en scherpte vergeleken.Bovendien heeft de implementatie van een sneller bemonsterd stroomhysteresisregelaar geleid tot een verbetering van de regulatie- en akoestische kwaliteit door de amplitude van de stroomrimpeling en de excitatie van resonantiefrequenties te verminderen. De testresultaten tonen dat de schakelfrequentie voldoende hoog moet zijn om de excitatie van de ovale vervormingsmode te vermijden, maar niet te hoog om de scherpte van het geluid te beperken. De amplitude van de rimpel beïnvloedt ook de luidheid en daarvoor moet in aanmerking worden genomen. Bijgevolg zou ‘soft chopping'mode, of een lagere spanning op de DC-bus bij lage toerentallen, met een relatief klein hysteresisband beter worden gebruikt. Uiteindelijk wordt het geval van een openfasefout bestudeerd en onthult versterkte gelijke frequentievolgorden in de trilling- en geluidplots.

Full textMultiphase drives have gained special relevance in recent times for their use in applications where reliability is of interest for economical and safety reasons. This Thesis focuses on the development of direct control techniques to optimally control multiphase machines, analyzing their tolerance to different limit operating conditions, such as electrical constraints (voltage, current and magnetization level limits) or failure situations such as an open-phase fault. First, the DTC technique is proposed to manage the open-phase fault operation of the multiphase machine. A comparison of the fault-tolerant capability of DTC with other control techniques is carried out, to conclude the strengths and weaknesses of the analyzed methods facing this limit operation. Finally, an optimal current controller is developed using MPC techniques that allows the optimal utilization of the system’s torque capability under electrical limitations. Simulation results and experimental validations are obtained to corroborate the initial approaches, through the use of particular cases of five-phase drives controlled using different frequency-domain control subspaces

Full textThe thesis first studies the relation between the rotor slot harmonics (RSHs) and the instan-taneous rotor speed. To directly track the RSH, the requirements of the system are fully ad-dressed.Second, the thesis presents a sensorless scheme based on phase-locked loop (PLL): The centre bandwidth is tuned on-line on the basis of the reference values of the supply and slip frequencies provided to the PWM converter, the PLL is tuned to track the machine rotor slot-ting harmonic without the need of any high frequency signal injection, neither rotating nor pulsating. This speed estimation scheme, which is suitable for the scalar controller, had been integrated with the scalar drive, leading to a simple, computationally not demanding, low cost sensorless IM drives. The experiment results show that the system is able to track the machine speed in a very wide speed range.Finally, an improved sensorless scheme based on minor component analysis (MCA) neu-rons is described. According to the Pisarenko’s theory, it has been verified that the MC which lies in the noise subspace is orthogonal to the signal subspace, thus, the signal frequencies contained in the input can be computed from a polynomial formed by the MC. Conventional-ly, this will require the bulky eigen-decomposition, nevertheless, the neural method proposed in this thesis can retrieve the MC recursively with less computation and improved error per-formance (the solution is of total least square meaning). Moreover, the speed estimator is ap-plied to the scalar drive with experimental verification, the overall system is well behaved, and the MCA method enhanced by neural networks has provided a good potential in the ap-plication of harmonics retrieve

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: The focus of this thesis is on the optimal design, control and evaluation of 3-phase permanent magnet radial flux synchronous machines with non-overlapping, concentrated-coil, double layer stator windings for EV hub drive applications. A simple analytical method is developed that can be used as a first design tool. The method uses and predicts the MMF harmonic content for a certain pole-slot combination as well as the harmonic content for the air gap permeance function. These harmonics are then used to calculate the torque and torque ripple of machines with large stator slot openings and surface mounted permanent magnets. A different approach to calculate the iron, stator copper eddy current and magnet losses is presented. This method specifically looks at the machine during field weakening operation when the flux paths are changing in the machine. Flux density information throughout the machine is extracted from a series of static FE solutions, to calculate the losses and to combine this with an empirical formula. Some machine topology choices are compared for use as hub drives in small electric ve- hicles. The parameters that influence the machine design are discussed and evaluated after a multidimensional design optimization is done and an efficient control algorithm is imple- mented. The algorithm works through the entire operating speed range and make use of, automatically generated, 2D look up tables to determine the correct current reference. A stator lamination design is proposed, that combines the use of rectangular preformed coils and semi-closed stator slots. Two prototype machines, one with a good winding factor and the other with a low winding factor, are built and compared. The manufacturing and testing of the two prototype machines are described and shown in detail.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die fokus van hierdie tesis is op die optimale ontwerp, beheer en evaluasie van 3-fase per- manent magneet radiale vloed sinchroon masjiene met nie-oorvleuelende, gekonsentreerde, dubbel laag stator wikkelinge vir EV hub motor toepassings. ’n Eenvoudige analitiese metode is ontwikkel wat as ’n eerste ontwerp gereedskap stuk gebruik kan word. Die metode gebruik en voorspel die MMF se frekwensie inhoud vir ’n sekere pool-gleuf kombinasie sowel as die frekwensie inhoud vir die lug spleet permeansie funksie. Hierdie frekwensie inhoud word dan gebruik om die draaimoment en draaimoment riffel van masjiene met groot stator gleuf openinge en oppervlak magnete te voorspel. ’n Ander benadering om yster, stator koper werwel stroom en magneet verliese te bepaal word voorgestel. Hierdie metode kyk spesifiek na masjiene onder veld verswakking beheer wanneer die vloed paaie verander vanaf die normale. Die vloeddigtheid, regdeur die masjien, word verkry deur om van ’n reeks statiese eindige element oplossings gebruik te maak en dit te kombineer met ’n empiriese verliesberekening. Die parameters wat die masjienontwerp beïnvloed, word bespreek en geëvalueer na ’n mul- tidimensionele ontwerp optimering gedoen is en ’n effektiewe beheer algoritme geïmplimen- teer is. Die algoritme werk vir enige spoed en is gebaseer op die outomaties gegenereerde 2D opsoek tabelle wat die korrekte stroomverwysing gee. ’n Stator laminasie ontwerp word voorgestel wat die gebruik van vooraf vervaardigde spoele en gedeeltelik toe stator gleuwe moontlik maak. Twee prototipe masjiene, een met ’n goeie windingsfaktor en een met ’n swakker windingsfaktor is gebou en vergelyk.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: The position sensorless controllability of the reluctance synchronous machine (RSM) is investigated in this thesis with the focus on industry applications where variable and dynamic torque is required from startup up to rated speed. Two low speed as well as one medium to high speed position sensorless control (PSC) method for RSMs are investigated. These methods are extended to operate in the entire rated speed region with a hybrid PSC structure that makes use of phase locked-loop synchronisation and a hysteresis changeover method. It is shown in this thesis that PSC of the lateral rib rotor RSM is not possible from zero up to ± 0.2 p.u current. It is shown through finite element (FE) simulations that PSC of the ideal rotor RSM however, is possible at zero reference current. A novel construction method is used to build two ideal rotor RSMs. Measured flux linkage curve results of the ideal rotor RSMs correlate well with simulation results and it is shown that the electrical angle of the machine can be tracked successfully at zero reference current. The FE simulation package is used to compare the saliency of the RSM on a per-unit scale to three types of field intensified permanent magnet (FI-PM) synchronous machines and a field weakening interior permanent magnet synchronous machine. It is shown that the saliency of the RSM is larger than that of the investigated PM machines from zero up to rated load. It is thus concluded that the RSM is well suited to saliency-based PSC (SB-PSC) methods, which are used to control synchronous machines at startup and low speeds. The hybrid PSC methods developed in this thesis, are tested and evaluated on three proposed industry applications. The first is a reluctance synchronous wind generator with an inverter output LC filter. The LC filter allows long cables to be used and reduces the voltage stress on the stator windings of the machine. The combination of the LC filter and hybrid PSC method allows the power electronics and controller to be stationed in the base of the turbine tower. A new stator quantity estimation method is derived to omit the need of current and voltage sensors on the machine side of the LC filter. Good maximum power point tracking laboratory results are shown with the high frequency injection-assisted hybrid PSC method. The second application investigated is a position sensorless controlled variable gear electric vehicle (EV) RSM drive. Simulation and measured results show good torque capabilities of the position sensorless controlled EV RSM. It is shown through simulation results that the fundamental current harmonic is dominant in the demodulation scheme of the high frequency injection position sensorless control (HFIPSC) method due to the high current rating of the proposed RSM. The HFI-PSC method is extended to reduce the effect of the fundamental current harmonic in the demodulation scheme without adding any additional filters. The final investigated application is a novel mine scraper winch, which uses two position sensorless controlled RSMs to retrieve ore from the blast site underground. The new design improves on the safety, efficiency and durability of the current scraper winch design. Measured results show that the position sensorless controlled winch RSM is able to deliver rated startup torque with both investigated SB-PSC methods. Finally an automation method is implemented and tested to limited the applied force on the scraper and automatically free itself when stuck.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die posisie sensorlose beheer eienskappe van die reluktansie sinchroonmasjien (RSM) word in hierdie tesis ondersoek met die fokus op industriële toepassings waar varierende dinamiese draaimoment vereis word vanaf stilstand tot by ken spoed. Twee lae spoed- en een ho¨e spoed posisie sensorlose beheer (PSB) metodes vir RSMe is ondersoek. Hierdie metodes is uitgebrei om twee hibriede PSB metodes to skep wat die RSM van stilstand tot by kenspoed posisie sensorloos kan beheer. Die ontwikkelde hibriede metodes maak gebruik van ’n histerese oorskakelings skema en fase geslote lus sinchronisasie Daar word in hierdie tesis bevestig dat die laterale rib RSM nie beheer kan word met die geondersoekte PSB metodes by nul stroom nie. Eindige element simulasie resultate wys egter daarop dat die ideale rotor RSM wel beheer kan word met die geondersoekte metodes by nul stroom. ’n Nuwe konstruksie metode is voorgestel om twee ideale rotor RSMe to bou. Gemete vloed omsluiting kurwes resultate korreleer baie goed met dié van die eindige element simulasies. Gemete resultate wys ook daarop dat PSB van die nuwe masjiene moontlik is by nul stroom. ’n Eindige element pakket is gebruik om die speek-koëffissiënt van die RSM te vergelyk met drie tipes veld-versterkte permanent magneet masjiene, asook een veld verswakte permanent magneet versinkte masjien. Die simulasie resultate wys dat die RSM se speek-koëffissiënt hoër is as die van die geondersoekte permanent magneet masjiene. Die RSM is dus geskik vir speek-koëffissiënt georienteerde PSB metodes, wat hoofsaaklik by stilstand en lae spoed gebruik word. Die ontwikkelde hibried PSB metodes is getoets en geëvalueer met drie voorgestelde industriële toepassings. Die eerste is ’n reluktansie sinchroon wind generator met ’n omsetter uittree laagdeurlaat filter. Die laagdeurlaat filter laat toe dat langer kabels vanaf die omsetter na die generator gebruik kan word. Die kombinasie van die laagdeurlaat filter en die PSB metodes laat toe dat die drywingselektronika en die beheerders in die toring basis geplaas kan word. Dit kan die gewig van die nasel verminder. Goeie maksimum drywingspunt volging laboratorium resultate word getoon met die hoë frekwensie ondersteunde hibried PSB metode. Die tweede geondersoekte toepassing is ’n posisie sensorlose beheerde, varierende ratkas elektriese voertuig RSM. Goeie simulasie en gemete draaimoment resultate van die RSM word getoon. Simulasie resultate toon dat die fundamentele q-as stroom harmoniek dominant is in die demodulasie skema van die hoë frekwensie PSB metode, as gevolg van die hoë ken stroom van die motor. Die hoë frekwensie PSB metode is uitgebrei om die fundamentele stroom harmoniek te onderdruk in die demodulasie skema sonder om enige filters by te voeg. Die finale toepassing is ’n nuwe myn windas wat van twee posisie sensorlose beheerde RSMe gebruik maak om klippe ondergronds te verplaas vanaf die ontploffings area. Die voorgestelde ontwerp verbeter die huidige ontwerp ten opsigte van die veiligheid, energie effektiwiteit en robuustheid. Gemete resultate wys dat ken draaimoment moontlik is met altwee speek-koëffissiënt metodes. ’n Automasie metode, wat die maksimum draaimoment op die windas beperk en automaties homself bevry indien hy vasval, is voorgestel en geëvalueer.

Full textHigh-performance control of electric drives requires an accurate knowledge of the rotor position and/or speed. These mechanical variables are traditionally measured using sensors, which increases the cost and reduces both the robustness and the reliability of the system. This emphasizes the importance of electric drives control without shaft sensors, often referred to as sensorless control : it consists of replacing sensors with a state observer algorithm, that estimates the desired mechanical variables from currents and voltages sensing and based on the system’s model. Nevertheless, before designing a state observer, the observability ofthe system should be examined, that is, it should be checked whether the states to be estimated can be reconstructed, unambiguously, from the input/output signalsof the system.This work addresses the modeling and the observability analysis of electric drives in the view of mechanical sensors removal. Firstly, electrical machines models areelaborated, and it is shown that a unified modeling of alternating current machines is feasible, for the purpose of designing unified control and estimation strategies.The observability of the machines’ models is next studied in the view of sensorless control. The local instantaneous observability theory is applied, which enables us to formulate physically insightful analytic conditions that can be easily interpreted and tested in real time. The validity of the observability conditions is confirmed by numerical simulations and experimental data, using an extended Kalman observer.This work contributes to novel outlooks on the sensorless alternating current drives and to a deeper understanding of its properties, in order to develop higher performance estimation techniques in the critical operating conditions (mainly at standstill and/or zero-stator-frequency).The concepts introduced throughout this thesis, such as the equivalent flux and the observability vector, with the obtained results, open new horizons in a domainthat seems to become mature enough

Full textThis work presents a non-sinusoidal dq transformation and its application in permanent- magnet synchronous machines (PMSM) with a non-sinusoidal back-EMF waveform. The resulting model of the application of such transformation permits direct control of machine electromagnetic torque, which achieves the reduction of torque ripple. The reduction of torque ripple in non-sinusoidal PMSMs makes possible the use of this kind of PMSM instead of sinusoidal PMSMs, which are more expensive. Simulation and practical results, obtained by the implementation of such non-sinusoidal vectorial control system, are shown in this work. Those results show that the method presented is efficacious in the torque ripple reduction in non-sinusoidal PM synchronous machines.

Full textThe aim of this work is to analyse the torque performance of brushless machines with non-sinusoidal distributed magnetic fluxes. The machine type considered is a surface mount permanent magnet brushless machine. Three mathematical models for the machine are considered: the per stator phase, the vectorial and the linear second order speed-voltage models. Machines with different stator windings are compared including the permanent magnet synchronous machines with sinusoidal distributed stator windings. The torque outputs of these machines are obtained considering two kinds of open loop driving systems: one with a six-pulse waveform and other with a sinusoidal waveform. Finally, a vectorial control is proposed for the non-sinusoidal machines. The torque ripple as well the overall performance of non-sinusoidal machines with vectorial control is compared to that of sinusoidal machines.

Full textUppskattningsvis 30% av alla fel i induktionsmaskiner (IM) är kopplad till dess stator. Dessa fel är i huvudsak Inter-Turn Short Circuit (ITSC)-fel, dvs. två lindningar inom IM:ens stator blir kortsluta pga. ett isoleringsfel. Emellertid kan man undvika ITSC-fel genom att detektera dem i förhand och planera underhåll. Det här examensarbetet undersöker två metoder för att detektera ett förestående ITSC-fel i en tre-fas IM. Den första metoden är baserad på asymmetrin i IM:er pga. ITSC-felet. Resultatet av den här asymmetrin är att en negativ sekvens genereras i IM:ens statorspänning och statorström. En oskadad IM kan också visa dessa negativa sekvenser pga. tillverksprocessen och statorspänningsobalanser. Egenskaperna och kompensationsmetoderna för dessa negativa sekvenser i en oskadad IM kommer att diskuteras. Resultaten visar att efter kompenseringen av de negativa sekvenserna i en oskadad IM, kan de användas för att detektera ITSC-fel och efteråt för att beräkna felstorheter och även statormotståndobalanser. Den andra metoden för att detektera ITSC-fel är baserad på en undersökning av statormotståndobalanser. Ett tre-fas-drivsystem används för att injektera likspänning i den stationära referensramen. Likströmmen som följer av denna likspänning mäts och statorfasmotstånden beräkna efteråt med Ohms lag. I en oskadad IM är fasmotstånden balanserade. Däremot, när ett ITSC-fel uppstår i en fas, avviker fasmotståndet i den felaktiga fasen från de andra två fasernas, vilket kan användas för att detektera ITSC-fel.

Full textBy means of the latest technological advances of the electrical machines, both in terms of computational aids in simulations and designs, materials and electronic systems of drive and control, this work put forward the construction of an electromechanical device, in the class of the linear motors. It will be applied to bioengineering area, in particular in upper limb prostheses, in the form of a translational actuator. This linear motor must substitute the systems that use electric rotational motors with planetary gears and lead screw transmission, to convert the rotational movement into linear. The hybrid mechanisms, like electro pneumatic/hydraulic actuators, which need energy sources different from electronics, can be changed for the linear electric machines too. A review about bioengineering topics is done, where the existent mechanical mechanisms are highlighted. According to the application necessities, the advantages and disadvantages of different topologies of electric linear machines are compared and the constructive characteristics are emphasized. The tubular linear synchronous motor, with permanent magnets on the surface of the mobile part, was chosen to be applied to hand prostheses. To this machine, a design methodology is presented for calculating the motor dimensions, based on the following subjects: magnetic circuit equating, finite element analyses to evaluate parameters and machine dynamic modeling. After the theorethical stage, the construction of the machine is presented with the experimental results, allowing comparisons between the real characteristics and the initial design features of the motor. Finally, the machine is applied to an artificial finger to verify its capability to replace the rotational motor.

The technique is evaluated by using an accurate mathematical model of the RSM in a simulation package, called Simuwin. The negative effects that cross-magnetisation and the slotted air-gap have on the technique are intensively investigated. It was showed that these effects can cause an error in the position estimation of up to 30°. The TMS320F240 DSP was used as the controller for the RSM drives to implement the position sensorless control technique. Measurements on both RSM drives confirm the simulated results.

Dit is bewys dat hierdie eienskappe van die RSM 'n fout in die posisie afskatting van tot 30° kan veroorsaak. Die TMS320F240 DSP is gebruik as beheerder vir die RSM aandryfstelsels om sodoende posisie sensorlose beheer op altwee masjiene toe te pas. Metings op albei stelsels bevestig die simulasies.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: The multiphase induction machine drive has been under investigation for the last half century. Although it offers several attractive advantages over the conventional three-phase induction machine drive, it is restricted to highly specialised applications. One aspect of the multiphase induction machine drive is the complexity of the control algorithm for decoupled flux and torque control. The complexity, arising from the required coordinate transformations, increases with increase in the number of phases of the machine. Recently, a method that allows the control of a six-phase induction machine drive without any coordinate transformations was developed and tested. This new control technique allows the control of the machine to be similar to that of dc machines through the use of special trapezoidal-shaped stator current waveforms. These stator phase current waveforms consist of field (flux) and torque current components, with flat-topped amplitudes allowing a stator phase to act alternately in time as either a flux or a torque producing phase. The idea is to have a number of stator phases acting as flux producing phases, whilst the remaining phases act as torque producing phases at each time instance. This dissertation takes a further step in the research on this particular control technique. As the control method relates directly to the brush-dc machine operation, in this dissertation, the control method is defined as a “brush-dc equivalent” (BDCE) control method. First, in this dissertation, a simple analytical method is developed to determine a defined optimal ratio of the number of field to the number of torque phases of a multiphase induction machine that utilises trapezoidal stator current waveforms. The method is applied to induction machines with up to fifteen stator phases. Finite element analysis is used to verify the validity of the developed criterion and to verify the square-like air gap flux density. Secondly, in this dissertation, an analytical method for predicting and evaluating the rotor bar current waveform of a cage multiphase induction machine is proposed. The method is based on the Fourier transform and the winding function theory under linear condition assumptions. The method also allows for the calculation of the electromagnetic torque and rotor bar losses. Skin effect is considered in the calculation of the rotor bar resistance of the machine. Again, finite element analysis is used to verify the analytically calculated results. The developed method can be expanded and used to evaluate the rotor current waveform of any multiphase induction machine supplied with any stator current waveforms. The BDCE control method is implemented on a prototype nine-phase cage-rotor induction machine drive. A nine-phase inverter and control system are developed for supplying the nine-phase induction machine with the trapezoidal stator current waveforms. Rotor current waveform measurements are taken on a specially designed rotor to verify the analytically predicted waveform. The linear relationship of the developed torque and torque current of the proposed BDCE control method is verified through measurements. Through the comparison of analytical calculated results with finite element calculated and measured results, it is shown in this dissertation that the developed analytical techniques can be used in the design and performance analysis of multiphase induction machines. Also, from the results, it is clear that the new control technique works remarkably well even in the flux weakening region. However, outstanding aspects, such as efficiency and generated torque quality of the proposed drive still need to be investigated further.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die multifase induksiemasjien aandryfstelsel word in die laaste halwe eeu al in navorsing ondersoek. Alhoewel dit verskeie aantreklike voordele bied bo die konvensionele driefase induksiemasjien aandryfstelsel, is dit beperk tot hoogs gespesialiseerde aanwendings. Een aspek van die multifase induksiemasjien aandryfstelsel is die kompleksiteit van die beheer algoritme vir ontkoppelde vloed en draaimoment beheer. Die kompleksiteit, wat voortspruit uit die vereiste koördinaat transformasies, neem toe met toename in die aantal fases van die masjien. Onlangs is 'n metode wat die beheer van ’n sesfase induksiemasjien sonder enige koördinaat transformasies doen, ontwikkel en getoets. Hierdie nuwe beheertegniek maak die beheer van die masjien soortgelyk aan dié van GS masjiene deur die gebruik van spesiale trapezium-vormige statorstroom golfvorms. Hierdie stator fasestroom golfvorms bestaan uit veld- (vloed-) en draaimoment-stroom komponente met plat amplitudes, sodat 'n statorfase om die beurt in tyd optree as óf' ’n vloed of 'n draaimoment genereerde fase. Die idee is om 'n aantal statorfases te hê wat as vloed genereerde fases dien, terwyl die oorblywende fases as draaimoment genereerde fases optree op enige tydstip. Hierdie tesis neem 'n verdere stap in die navorsing op hierdie spesifieke beheertegniek. Met die beheermetode wat direk verband hou met borsel-GS masjien werking, word in hierdie proefskrif die beheermetode as 'n "borsel-GS ekwivalente" ["brush-DC equivalent" (BDCE)] beheermetode gedefinieer. In die eerste plek word in hierdie proefskrif 'n eenvoudige analitiese metode ontwikkel om ’n gedefinieerde optimale verhouding van die aantal veld tot die aantal draaimoment fases van 'n multifase induksiemasjien te bepaal, wat van trapesoïdale statorstroom golfvorms gebruik maak. Die metode word toegepas op induksiemasjiene met tot vyftien statorfases. Eindige element analise is gebruik om die geldigheid van die ontwikkelde kriterium te verifieer en om die vierkantvormige luggaping vloeddigtheid te verifieer. In die tweede plek word in hierdie proefskrif 'n analitiese metode vir die voorspelling en evaluering van die rotorstaafstroom golfvorm van 'n kourotor multifase induksiemasjien voorgestel. Die metode is gebaseer op die Fourier transform en die wikkelingsfunksie teorie onder lineêre-toestand aannames. Die metode wend hom ook daartoe tot die berekening van die elektromagnetiese draaimoment en rotorstaafverliese. Die huideffek word in ag geneem in die berekening van die rotorstaafweerstand van die masjien. Weereens is eindige element analise gebruik om die analitiese berekende resultate te verifieer. Die ontwikkelde metode kan uitgebrei en gebruik word om die rotorstroom golfvorm van van enige multifase induksiemasjien te evalueer wat gevoer word met enige statorstroom golfvorms. Die BDCE beheermetode is toegepas op 'n prototipe negefase kourotor induksiemasjien. 'n Negefase omsetter en beheerstelsel is ontwikkel vir die toevoer van die trapesoïdale statorstroom golfvorms aan die negefase induksiemasjien. Die rotorstroomgolfvorm metings is geneem op 'n spesiaal ontwerpte rotor om die analitiese voorspelde golfvorm te verifieer. Die lineêre verwantskap tussen die ontwikkelde draaimoment en draaimomentstroom van die voorgestelde BDCE beheermetode is geverifieer deur metings. Deur die analitiese berekende resultate met die eindige element berekende en gemete resultate te vergelyk, wys hierdie proefskrif dat die ontwikkelde analitiese tegnieke gebruik kan word in die ontwerp en werkverrigting analise van ’n multifase induksiemasjien. Vanuit die resultate is dit ook duidelik dat die nuwe beheertegniek besonder goed werk, selfs in die vloedverswakking spoedgebied. Egter, uitstaande aspekte soos effektiwiteit en genereerde draaimoment kwaliteit van die voorgestelde aandryfstelsel moet nog verder ondersoek word.

Converting electricity to mechanical motion is a foundation of modern civilization. A controllable "knob" is often necessary in these electromechanical energy conversion systems to achieve adjustable motion or a process control. An energy-efficient approach to realize this "knob" is through variable-speed drives (VSD), which are power-electronic based converters with associated control operating as an interface between the electrical machine and the electrical source. These drives are not only critical in a wide range of applications including industrial processes, electric propulsion systems, and power generation plants but also becoming increasingly relevant for optimizing energy consumption. For example, a motor without a VSD running at fixed speed can potentially waste 30% to 80% of energy in mechanical throttles located upstream from a compressor or downstream of a pump. In addition to being a controllable knob for energy conversion, these VSDs are configurable to support the electrical source, e.g., the electric grid, through appropriate reactive power support and controllable power factor - a vital feature required for the future electric grid comprising more complex electrical networks. However, merely 13% of global loads in mega-watt class high-power applications are driven by VSDs. At these higher power levels, the VSD design is significantly challenging due to the limited available power-electronic device ratings and allowable switching frequency leading to design trade-offs among size, efficiency, performance, reliability, and cost. This dissertation proposes a switched-doubly-fed machine (switched-DFM) drive that uses a parallel architecture for electromechanical energy conversion to reduce the required power processing capability of the power-electronic converter by two-thirds while operating seamlessly over a wide speed range. Additionally, the proposed architecture provides exciting opportunities for supporting the electric grid with reactive power not only through the VSD but also using the electrical machine. The approach confronts the challenges of high power electromechanical energy conversion from the perspective of electromagnetics, power electronics, circuit designs, embedded computing, and control to push the trade-off boundary for the VSD to be physically small, efficient, reliable, flexible, inexpensive, and electric-grid friendly. The thesis contributions include a design procedure for the proposed switched-DFM drive based on a required drive-torque-speed capability, a control architecture that can achieve seamless performance across the entire speed range from the perspectives of the electrical grid and the mechanical load, multiple transfer-switch circuit topologies enabling uninterrupted on-the-fly reconfiguration of the DFM, steady-state and dynamic performance comparison between different switched-DFM drive topologies, and an exploration of DFM electromagnetic design considerations that suit the proposed architecture. A lab-scale experimental setup that emulates an entire power system from generation to consumption is designed and built to demonstrate seamless, wide-speed range, and four-quadrant operation of the proposed switched-DFM drive. The proposed methodologies open up opportunities to create efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable solutions for high power electromechanical energy conversion systems.

Full textDigital motion control area toady is a well-established one,which is believed to be first initiated by power electronicengineers in the early seventies. Modern digital controltheory, advances in digital signal processor andmicrocontroller technology and recent developments in powerelectronic devices have made this field a very competitive one.The objective of this thesis is to present some digital motioncontrol techniques that can be applied for electrical drives.This is done by investigating two motion control problemsassociated with electrical drives; namely, precision motioncontrol and sensorless motion control.
Application of digital motion control techniques for preciseeccentric rotor positioning of an induction machine with ActiveMagnetic Bearings (AMB) is the first application problemaddressed in the thesis. The final goal is to prepare aflexible test rig for the study of acoustic noise in standardinduction machines with rotor eccentricity. AMB control hasbeen a challenging task for the control engineers since itsinvention. Various types of control techniques - both analogand digital - have been attempted with a lot of success overthe past years. In the application area of rotating machines,the whole concept of AMB control means stabilizing the rotor ofthe machine in the exact center of the radial AMBs andmaintaining that position under magnetic disturbance forcesexerted on it by the stator under running condition. The aim ofthe first part of the thesis is to present several digitalmotion control techniques that would give the user theflexibility of moving the rotor to any arbitrary position inthe air gap and maintaining that eccentric position.
The second part of the thesis dealt with sensorless controlof Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM) for high-speedapplications. Conventional PMSM drives employ a shaft-mountedencoder or a resolver to identify the rotor flux position. Itis advantageous to eliminate the shaft-mounted sensor byincorporating sensorless control schemes for PMSM drive systemsdue to many reasons. A sensorless control scheme must besufficiently robust and less computationally heavy for it to besuccessful. However, reliable performance of a sensorlesscontrol drive strategy is always an integration of many digitalmotion control techniques. Implementation of fast currentcontrol by overcoming sampling delay in the discrete system isa key issue in this respect. Suitable speed control with areliable controller anti-windup mechanism is also essential.Compensation techniques for the inverter non-idealities mustalso be incorporated to achieve better performance. In thispart of the thesis, all these aspects of a well performingsensorless control strategy for a PMSM are investigated.Frequency dependent machine parameter variation, which is asignificant practical problem against achieving the expectedperformance of these control strategies, is also addressed.
Most of the problems addressed in the thesis are related toimplementation issues of a successful control method. Theapproach in this work is to find solutions to those applicationissues from the automatic control theory.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis describes. the design and evaluation of a constant current angle controller for a variable speed reluctance synchronous machine (RSM) drive, as an energy efficient high performance drive. An accurate model of the RSM, with the use of finite element analysis, is derived and implemented in simulation software. The current- and speed controllers are designed and evaluated using a complete simulation model of the whole drive. The controller is implemented on a TMS320F240 DSPbased digital controller, which was developed. The dynamic performance of the constant-current-angle control is compared with that of the conventional constant-daxis- current control method. The results obtained from the RSM drive confirm the simulation results. In the comparison of the two control methods it is shown that the constant-current-angle controlled RSM drive is an energy-efficient drive with good dynamic performance.

In this paper, we build trading strategies by applying machine-learning techniques to both technical analysis indicators and market sentiment data. The resulting prediction models can be employed as an artificial trader used to trade on any given stock exchange. The performance of the model is evaluated using the S&P 500 index.
