This paper deals with the design process for an outer-rotor-type surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) used in continuous variable valve timing (CVVT) systems in automobiles with internal combustion engines. When the same size, outer-rotor-type SPMSMs generate larger torque and more stable than inner-rotor-type SPMSMs. For the initial design, space harmonic analysis (SHA) is used. In order to minimize the cogging torque, an optimization was conducted using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). At the end of the paper, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is performed to verify the performance of the optimum model.

Several techniques have been adopted in motor design of interior permanent magnet (IPM) type brushless DC (BLDC) motor to minimize cogging torque. IPM type motor has better ability in the centralization of flux than surface-mounted permanent magnet (SPM) type BLDC motor. So, the structure of IPM type BLDC motor has high saliency ratios that produce additional torque. However, this structure has a significant cogging torque that generates both vibration and noise. This paper describes new technique of the flux barriers design for reduction of cogging torque of IPM type BLDC motor. To reduce the cogging torque, flux barriers are applied in the rotor. Changing the number of barrier, the cogging torque is analyzed by finite clement method(FEM).

This paper presents a servo control scheme for the surface-mounted permanent-magnet synchronous motor(SPMSM) which essentially uses vector control algorithm. The control system is composed of the PI controller for speed control and the current controller using space voltage vector PWM technique. The high-speed calculation and processing for vector control is carried out by TMS320C31 digital signal processor and IGBT module. The proposed scheme is verified through digital simulations and experiments for 2.2kW SPMSM and shows good dynamic performance.

In order to decrease the parameter sensitivity of deadbeat direct torque control (DB-DTC), an improved deadbeat direct torque control method for surface mounted permanent-magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) drives is proposed. First, the track errors of the stator flux and torque that are caused by model parameter mismatch are analyzed. Then a sliding mode observer is designed, which is able to predict the d-q axis currents of the next control period for one-step delay compensation, and to simultaneously estimate the model parameter disturbance. The estimated disturbance of this observer is used to estimate the stator resistance offline. Then the estimated resistance is required to update the designed sliding-mode observer, which can be used to estimate the inductance and permanent-magnetic flux linkage online. In addition, the flux and torque estimation of the next control period, which is unaffected by the model parameter disturbance, is achieved by using predictive d-q axis currents and estimated parameters. Hence, a low parameter sensitivity DB-DTC method is developed. Simulation and experimental results show the validity of the proposed direct control method.

The inaccurate model parameters in the predictive current control of surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (SMPMSM) affect the current dynamic response and steady-state error. This paper presents a model parameter correction algorithm based on the relationship between the errors of model parameters and the static errors of dq-axis current. In this correction algorithm, the errors of inductance and flux are corrected in two steps. Resistance is ignored. First, the proportional relations between inductance and d-axis static current errors are utilized to correct the error of model inductance. Second, the flux is corrected by utilizing the proportional relations between flux and q-axis static current errors under the condition that inductance is corrected. An experimental study with a 100 W SMPMSM is performed to validate the proposed algorithm.

Parametric uncertainties and inverter nonlinearity exist in the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive system of electrical vehicles, which may lead to performance degradation or failure, and eventually threaten reliable operation. Therefore, a model-free deadbeat predictive current controller (MFDPCC) for PMSM drive systems is proposed in this study. The data-driven ultra-local model of a surface-mounted PMSM (SMPMSM) drive system that consists of parametric uncertainties and inverter nonlinearity is first established through the input and output data of a SMPMSM drive system. Subsequently, MFDPCC is designed. The performance comparisons and analyses of the proposed MFDPCC, the conventional proportional-integral controller, and the model-based deadbeat predictive current controller for SMPMSM drive systems are implemented via system simulation and experimental tests. Results show the effectiveness and technical advantages of the proposed MFDPCC.

This paper describes the development of a powertrain for a 20 kW experimental electric vehicle using a surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) and its application to a test vehicle. Two 10 kW SPMSMs are used in the powertrain, and two-level inverters are developed by using IGBTs to derive these motors. To control the SPMSM, a control board based on a TMS320F28335 DSP module, which has fast arithmetic function and floating point operator, is used. We develop a 100 V/40 A battery pack, which includes $32{\times}4$ LiFePO4 battery cells using commercial BMS. A commercial on-board charger with 220 V (AC) input and 100 V (DC) and 18 A output is used to charge the battery pack. The performance of the developed vehicle, such as acceleration availability, maximum speed, and maximum power, is estimated based on vehicle dynamics and verified through experiments.
