Abstract

This paper proposes an algorithm for reducing the starting current when the single-phase induction motor starts and analyzes its operation. Generally, the single-phase induction motors require several starters to generate the starting torque due to their structural characteristics. In this paper, a capacitor-start / capacitor-run method of the single-phase induction motor is basically adopted. This conventional method is efficient and has a large starting torque, but it generates about 5 ~ 6 times of inrush current at startup. As a result, the freezer starting device and peripheral devices are damaged and life time may be reduced. To reduce the inrush current, the current control algorithm based on the virtual dq model is presented to control the starting current. In addition, it validates the proposed algorithm through experiments to smooth transit from start-up operation to the rated operating region.

본 논문은 단상 유도전동기의 기동 시 발생하는 기동전류를 분석하고 이를 저감하기 위한 알고리즘을 제안한다. 일반적으로 단상 유도전동기는 구조적인 특성으로 인해 기동토크를 발생시킬 수 있는 별도의 기동장치가 요구된다. 본 논문에서 사용되고 있는 방법은 커패시터-기동/커패시터-운전 방식이며 타 방식 대비 기동토크가 크고 운전효율이 높은 특성이 있다. 하지만 초기 기동 시 약 5~6배에 해당되는 돌입전류가 발생하며 이로 인한 초저온 냉동고 기동 소자와 주변기기들의 소손 및 수명 저하의 원인이 된다. 기동 시 발생하는 돌입전류를 저감하기 위하여 가상 dq모델 기반의 전류제어 알고리즘을 적용하여 기동 전류를 제한하고, 정격운전에 도달 시 상용전원과 동일한 운전조건으로 전환하기 위한 알고리즘을 실험을 통하여 그 타당성을 검증한다.
