This paper investigates the problem of the speed estimation of conventional speed sensorless stator flux-oriented induction machine drive in the field weakening region and proposes a new speed estimation scheme to estimate speed exactly in transients in the field weakening region. The error included in the estimated rotor speed is removed by not a low pass filter but Kalman filter so that exact speed estimation in transients is achieved.

In case of field weakening region, the dynamic behavior of the speed controller depends on the rotor flux level. In this region, the flux is decreased inversely proportional to the rotor speed. As the rotor flux is decreased, as the magnetizing inductance is increased. In this paper, the effect of this increased magnetizing inductance to the performance of vector control is illustrated. The stationary reference frame torque not including the magnetizing inductance is calculated by stationary stator flux, and the rotating reference frame torque including the magnetizing inductance is calculated by rotating rotor flux. If the magnetizing inductance value is constant, two torque values are same regardless of the flux-component current. However, if the magnetizing inductance is varied, those two values are different. The paper presents the new tuning scheme of the magnetizing inductance using the difference between the stationary and rotating torque. Computer simulation demonstrates the efficacy of the proposed scheme.

This paper presents a strategy to drive built in-type spindle induction motor which is used as CNC(Computer Numerical Control) in the industry. Gopinath model flux estimator which is composed of current model to be profitable in the low speed range and voltage model to be profitable in the high speed range is used for rotor flux estimation. Moreover this paper presents to drive the spindle motor in the high speed range by using the flux weakening control. High speed operation of spindle motor in the field weakening region is verified through simulations and experiments.

In the paper the authors deal with inverter fed induction motors design criteria for having a wide constant power range. In particular, the flux weakening operation is the main feature considered. The design target concerns the possibility of having a wide flux weakening region avoiding or limiting, at the same time, to oversize the motor and the inverter.

In this article, a special kind of axial flux permanent magnet machine has proved to be suitable for high torque and low speed applications. An innovative design of the machine has been proposed in order to make the machine suitable for traction applications by means of field-weakening. The aim of this paper is to analyze, in general terms, the basic equations that describe the operating conditions of such machines. Optimal sizes for design can be obtained by calculating the power density and the air-gap flux density, etc.

An interior permanent magnet synchronous motor(IPMSM) has been applied to the electric vehicle due to its high efficiency, compact volume, and wide operating speed ranges. This paper presents the analysis of the flux weakening operating regions at high speeds for the IPMSM that has back emf harmonics. The effect of the back emf harmonics on the motor speed and the maximum torque is analyzed. Also the dq currents for maximum torque operation under the voltage and the current limit conditions are analyzed. The conventional analysis and the presented analysis for the flux weakening operating regions are compared and the maximum torque - speeds characteristics for both analysis are verified through the experiment.

An induction machine can be operated in the constant power region over an extended high speed range by means of field weakening. A conventional field weakening method is to set the flux reference inversely proportional to the rotor speed. With this method, however, the machines can't yield the maximum torque over the entire high speed range. In this paper, a new field weakening method for the field oriented induction machine drive by the voltage control strategy is presented. The proposed scheme ensures not only producting the maximum torque over the entire field weakening region but also the robust control independent on machine parameters. Also the smooth transition into the field weakening operation and fast dynamic response during transient operation can be obtained. Simulation and experimental results from a 3hp laboratory induction motor drive system are done to confirm the proposed control algorithm.

This paper deals with electromagnetic characteristics of IPMSM (Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous motor) caused by field weakening current control. In order to extend operation speed, field weakening current control is generally used in IPMSM operation. During field weakening, distorted linkage fluxes are resulted by saturation of core material. Therefore, distorted input voltage waveform is required for sinusoidal current input. As the current vector angle increases for field weakening, distortion of linkage flux and back-emf becomes significant. This situation is analyzed by 2-dimensional finite element analysis and verified by experiment. With the results, it is concluded that motor parameters, such as linkage flux by permanent magnet, phase resistance, d-q axis inductance, are insufficient for estimating required voltage for given speed especially in field weakening and additional considerations for increased harmonics of voltage are required.

A permanent magnet synchronous motor(PMSM) differs from an ordinary synchronous motor in that the former has no field winding and the field flux can not be controlled by field current. A field-weakening control of PMSM utilizing the demagnetization due to d-axis armature reaction is equivalent to reducing the field current. In this paper, the armature resistance is considered for the optimum field-weakening control.

The purpose of this treatise is to estimate speed of an induction motor and realize a robust speed control system with estimated speed in field-weakening region. A speed estimation is based on Model Reference Adaptive System(MRAS) technique and two flux estimator are designed to be robust against parameter variation. The MRAS-based overall control scheme has been implemented on 7.5kW Spindle induction motor control system. And it is verified that the proposed control scheme is very stable and robust in field-weakening region.
