This paper presents a voltage angle control strategy for surface permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) drives used in low-cost applications, wherein a current vector control is not employed. In the proposed method, the current vector control scheme, which requires high precision phase-current sensing units and a fast calculation capability of a motor drive controller, is replaced with the voltage angle controller. The proposed voltage angle controller calculates a d-axis voltage command to make the d-axis current zero by using a simple equation obtained from the voltage equation of SPMSM. The proposed method shows performance similar to the current vector controlled SPMSM drive during steady-states and its structure is very simple and thus it can be easily implemented with a low-cost microcontroller. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through simulations and experiments.

The performance of 4-switch 3-phase inverter(: FSTPI) which replace two switches of 6-switch 3-phase inverter(: SSTPI) is mainly affected by the compensator unbalanced voltages and output voltage control method. This paper proposes a DC offset current injection method to compensate the capacitor unbalanced voltages for FSTPI. A simplified SVPWM method which can be applied to FSTPI is also proposed. The validity of the proposed methods is verified by simulation and experiment using SPMSM.

This paper propose a variable proportional resonant feedforward algorithm for reducing the speed ripple of a three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor. In general, the torque ripples can be generated by electrical pulsation due to current measurement errors and dead time and mechanical pulsation because of rotor eccentricity and eccentric load. These torque pulsations can cause speed pulsations of the motor and degrade the operating performance of the motor drive system. Therefore, in this paper, the factors of the speed ripple is analyzed and an algorithm to reduce the speed ripple is proposed. The proposed algorithm applied a variable proportional resonant controller in order to reduce the specific operating frequency included in the speed pulsation, and utilized a feedforward compensation controller structure to perform the compensation operation. The proposed algorithm is verified through various experiments.

This paper presents a novel two-phase two-pole permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) with asymmetric U-core stator structure. The construction and parameters of the novel two-phase U-core PMSM are compared with a conventional U-core single-phase PMSM (SPMSM). Then transient characteristics such as torque, back-emf, and power loss of the both PMSMs are analyzed by using 3-D Finite Element Method (FEM). Under the same condition of rated input current, synchronous speed, similar dimensions and volume, FE results show that the two-phase PMSM with U-core stator has significantly less torque ripple than single-phase U-core PMSM, with similar power loss and efficiency.

본 논문에서는 표면부착형 영구자석 동기전동기(SPMSM)의 새로운 전압 위상 제어 방법을 제안한다. 영구자석 동기전동기의 모델로부터 d축 전류를 추정하고, d축 전류가 영(零)이 되도록 전압 지령의 위상을 제어함으로써 영구자석 동기전동기의 역기전력과 전류의 위상을 맞춘다. 제안된 방식은 전류 제어 없이 단순히 전압 제어만을 수행하기 때문에 저가 구현이 중요시 되는 산업계 응용에 적합하다. 모의 실험을 통해 제안된 방식의 동작 특성을 평가한다.

본 논문에서는 단일 2-level 3-leg 전압형 인버터를 사용하여 직렬 연결된 3상 및 단상 표면부착형 영구자석 동기전동기(SPMSM)를 가변속 운전하는 기법을 제안한다. 일반적으로 두 영구자석 동기전동기를 독립적으로 가변속 운전하기 위해서는 각각의 인버터가 필요하지만, 본 논문은 옵셋(Offset) 전압을 사용한 전압 펄스 폭 변조(PWM) 방식으로 인버터를 제어하여 단일 인버터를 사용한 3상 및 단상 전동기 동시 운전이 가능하다. 제안된 방식은 전력용 반도체 소자 수를 줄여 전동기 구동시스템의 가격을 절감시킬 수 있으며, PLECS 시뮬레이션을 통하여 제안된 토폴로지의 유효성을 검증하였다.

본 논문에서는 표면부착형 영구자석 동기전동기(SPMSM)를 위한 센서리스 제어방법을 실험을 통해 검증하고자 한다. 동기전동기의 벡터제어를 위하여 엔코더나 레졸버를 이용하면 비용이 증가할 뿐만 아니라 유지 보수가 필요하기 때문에 동기전동기의 센서리스 모터제어 기법이 요구되고 있다. 또한, 동기전동기의 센서리스 모터 제어를 위해서는 정확한 회전자의 위치와 속도가 필요하므로 본 논문에서는 영구자석 동기전동기의 수학적 모델을 통하여 위치와 속도를 추정한다. 회전 중 발생하는 역기전력을 통해 추정 위치 오차를 얻으며, 추정 오차가 0이 되도록 추정기를 구성하여 이를 실험을 통해 검증하였다.

In this study, the sinusoidal-wave driving method, six-step driving method, and twelve-step driving method, which can be used in an inverter for permanent-magnet synchronous motors, were simulated, and the results were compared to review their operating performance. These driving methods were classified according to the electrical conduction angle and phase current of the motor. Conventionally, only the transition control technique between the sinusoidal-wave driving method and six-step driving method was studied for the efficiency of the inverter. In this paper, however, comparative analysis was focused on a variety of transition control applications to use the advantages of each driving method. For this purpose, computer simulations for these driving methods were carried out to obtain the motor torque, speed control characteristics, and THD of the motor phase currents. As a result, the sinusoidal-wave driving method showed the best performance in all respects. The six-step driving method has better speed control characteristics than the twelve-step driving method, and the twelve-step driving method has a lower THD of the motor phase currents than the six-step driving method.
