Most single-Phase brushless DC (BLDC) motors have unequal air gap to eliminate the dead-point where the developed torque value is zero. However this partial increase of the air gap deteriorates the motor characteristics in cogging torque. Thus in this paper a new topology of unequal air gap is proposed to solve this problem. The topology is to use some pairs of equal or unequal air gaps. As a result, it is proved by the finite element analysis and experimental results that the single-Phase BLDC motor with the proposed air gap topology is very effective in reducing the cogging torque.

A robust nonlinear control technique for brushless DC(BLDC) motors is presented using a feedback linearizing technique. The nonlinear model of the BLDC motor is first linearized far the exactly known system by an input-output linearizing method. Then, the robust control is designed for the unknown parts of the system using the Lypunov second method. By employing the proposed control scheme, the a robust control performance against the parameter uncertainties is obtained and therefore a robust feedback linerizing control of the BLDC motor is realized. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is well demonstrated through the comparative simulations.

본 논문에서는 BLDC 모터로 구동되는 오일 펌프 제어 시스템을 설계하고 구현하는 문제를 다룬다. 제안된 오일 펌프는 하이브리드 차량에 장착되어 엔진 클러치와 변속기에 충분한 양의 작동유를 공급하는 역할을 한다. BLCD 모터로 구동되는 제어기를 단순화하여 전원 전압을 PWM 방식으로 직접 제어하는 일반적인 방법을 사용함으로써 응답성 및 정확성을 향상시키는 것을 주목적으로 한다. 제안된 제어 기법은 오일 펌프 장치의 효율성과 신뢰성을 높인다. BLCD 모터의 회전과 오일 펌프 가동 실험을 실시하여 제안된 기법의 성능을 검증한다.

This paper presents an IHQRR (Integrated High Quality Rectifier Regulator) BIFRED (Boost Integrated Flyback Rectifier Energy Storage DC-DC) converter fed BLDC (Brushless DC) motor drive. A reduced sensor topology is derived by utilizing a BIFRED converter to operate in a dual DCM (Discontinuous Conduction Mode) thus utilizing a voltage follower approach for the PFC (Power Factor Correction) and voltage control. A new approach for speed control is proposed using a single voltage sensor. The speed of the BLDC motor drive is controlled by varying the DC link voltage of the front end converter. Moreover, fundamental frequency switching of the VSI's (Voltage Source Inverter) switches is used for the electronic commutation of the BLDC motor which reduces the switching losses in the VSI. The proposed drive is designed for a wide range of speed control with an improved power quality at the AC mains which falls within the recommended limits imposed by international power quality standards such as IEC 61000-3-2.

This paper proposes a design of optimal PI(D) controller for brushless DC (BLDC) motor speed control by the particle swarm optimization (PSO), one of the powerful metaheuristic optimization search techniques. The proposed control system is implemented on the TMS320F28335 DSP board interfacing to MATLAB/SIMULINK. With Back EMF detection, the proposed system is considered as a class of sensorless control. This scheme leads to the speed adjustment of the BLDC motor by PWM. In this work, the BLDC motor of 100 watt is conducted to investigate the control performance. As results, it was found that the speed response of BLDC motor can be regulated at the operating speed of 800 and 1200 rpm in both no load and full load conditions. Very satisfactory responses of the BLDC system can be successfully achieved by the proposed control structure and PSO-based design approach.

A numerical simulation of brushless DC motor is performed to elucidate thermo-flow characteristics in winding and bearing with heat generation. Rotation of rotor and blades drives influx of ambient air into the rotor inlet. Recirculation zone exists in the tiny interfaces between windings. The flow separation causes poor cooling performance in bearing part and therefore the redesign of the bearing groove is required. The design parameters such as the inlet location, geometry and bearing groove threshold angle have been selected in the present simulation. As the inlet location moves inward in the radial direction, total incoming flow rate and heat transfer rate are increased. Total incoming flow rate is increased with increasing the inlet inner length. The effect of the bearing groove threshold angle on the thermal performance is less than that of other design parameters.

In this paper, the general research on the analysis of the vibration due to magnetic exciting force in the small brushless DC(BLDC) motor, which is used in the Digital Versatile Disk(DVD) ROM driving system, is performed. The first part of the study is the analysis of the magnetic exciting force in the air gap region. As a verification of the exciting force by numerical analysis, the magnetic exciting force distribution in the air gap region is computed by using Reluctance Network Method(RNM). In addition, the effect of the eccentricity on the magnetic exciting force is discussed. The other part of the research is the structural analysis of the rotor structure of the BLDC motor. The matural mode analysis of the rotor structure is performed, and the vibration response due to magnetic exciting force is found. As a result of the procedures, the basic estimation of the effect of the magnetic exciting force on the vibration of BLDC motor is suggested.

This paper deals with the characteristic analysis of a brushless DC motor (BLDC) and taking into consideration the freewheeling diodes and DC link voltage ripple using a time-stepped voltage source finite element method. By comparing with the experimental results, we show that the proposed computational method is useful for the analysis and design of a BLDC motor. We also examine the influence of freewheeling diodes and DC link voltage ripples on the performance of a BLDC motor such as torque ripples and radial force on the surface of the teeth.

In this study, vibrations of an electric motor are analyzed when the motor has the interaction between mechanical and electromagnetic behaviors. For this vibration analysis a 3-phase 8-pole brushless DC motor is selected. Vibrations of the motor are influenced by coupled electromechanical characteristics. The variation of air-gap induced by vibration has an influence on the inductance of the motor coil. To analyze dynamic characteristics of the rotor, we studied inductance by the variation of an air-gap. After obtaining the kinetic, potential and magnetic energies for the motor, the equations of motion are derived by using Lagrange's equation. By applying the Newmark time integration method to the equations, the dynamic responses for the displacements and currents are computed.
