This paper focuses on the control of three-phase brushless asynchronous excitation system (TBAES) of the aircraft wound-field synchronous starter-generator system. Since the closed-loop control of the field current of synchronous starter-generator is hard to achieve, generally, the TBAES is powered by the onboard three-phase power system during the low speed region and cut off one phase of the onboard...
This paper develops an analytical model to study the performance of dual-wound three-phase surface permanent magnet synchronous machines under normal operating conditions and various fault scenarios. A generic analytical model of inductance calculation is developed considering multiple layers of coils in the stator slots for different slot-pole combinations. The performance of three dual-wound machine...
Classical induction machine design generally focuses on achieving high steady state efficiency. In contrast, automotive applications consist of almost continuous transients, where the flux linkage is varied along the driving cycle to save energy. With conventional induction machines designed for high steady state efficiency, higher peak current and excessive machine losses can occur during the transient...
This paper proposes a new current controller with modified decoupling and anti-windup schemes for a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive. In designing the controller, an improved voltage model, which is different from existing models in that it reflects all the nonlinear characteristics of the motor, is considered. In an actual PMSM, unintentional distortion occurs in inductance and flux...
The More-Electric Aircraft (MEA) concept has been introduced as part of the process of reducing the environmental impact of air travel. Incorporating more electrical systems including motor drives has become increasingly attractive researched. High power density across the complete system is a key factor in the realization of this technology. This paper considers a motor drive sizing procedure with...
Model predictive direct power control (MPDPC) has been widely concerned in the control of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) systems owing to its simple concept and good multivariate control ability. The optimal voltage vector is selected based on the principle of power error minimization. Nevertheless, the conventional MPDPC still presents relatively high power ripples and the switching frequency...
This paper is dedicated to apply Hilbert-Huang Transform (HHT) method on fault detections of a multi-phase generator — diode rectifier set. The system structure, principle of the HHT, and part of the fault detection simulation results are shown in this paper. The applicability of HHT on fault diagnosis of a multi-phase machine system is illustrated by analyzing the simulation results.

Genetic algorithm is used for parameter identification. It is used to minimise least squares difference between calculated and measured data by selecting parameters of induction motor model. Variable inductance is identified...
High-speed permanent magnet motors (HSPMMs) have gained ever-increasing interests in high speed direct-drive applications due to their advantages of high-power density, small size and high efficiency. However, the low stator inductance of the HSPMM causes large current ripple in the stator current, therefore brings additional iron loss. The Modular multilevel converter (MMC) increases both voltage...
The paper describes a procedure to identify the dq inductances of an electric machine, which is here applied to a dual three-phase PM machine. A hybrid simulation/ experimental approach is utilised. A power converter is used to force step current transients and the responses are recorded. These are then fed into a combined parameter estimation/ simulation model, which yields at the output the machine...
A switching circuit system based on FPGA is designed and implemented in this paper to provide high-frequency adjustable-phase voltages for the ultrasonic motor. For the existing drive systems of the ultrasonic motor, the bus voltage is usually 12V DC or 24V DC supporting by an external adapter, the driving voltages of the ultrasonic motor, however, are required to be boosted yet. Then, the step-up...
Most Anisotropy based sensorless control schemes are using an additional voltage injection in order to create a measurable current ripple. This injection causes some unwanted side effects such as additional noise and torque oscillations, introduced by the harmonics of the current. This paper proposes an operating point dependent injection in combination with an arbitrary injection scheme in order...
This paper presents a self-sensing control for an induction machine over a wide speed range, introducing a method which combines an EMF-based and a saliency-based approach. The major advantage of the proposed method is a simple-to-implement estimator for the entire speed range with low computational effort and an arbitrary high-frequency injection. Furthermore, a novel rotor design of an induction...
This paper presents an analytical method to calculate the unsaturated direct (d) and quadrature (q) axis magnetizing inductance of synchronous reluctance machines (SynRMs). The d-axis magnetizing inductance is calculated by conformal mapping and solving partial differential equations of magnetic potentials, while the q-axis magnetizing inductance is solved from a magnetic equivalent circuit (MEC)...
The derivation of analytical solutions for the optimal reference currents during Maximum-Torque-per-Current (MTPC; or Maximum-Torque-per-Ampere (MTPA)), Maximum-Torque-per-Voltage (MTPV) and Maximum-Torque-per-Flux (MTPF) operation of anisotropic synchronous machines with non-negligible stator resistance and mutual inductance is presented. The analytical solutions allow for a direct computation of...
This paper presents a robustness-improving discrete-time current controller utilizing predictive current control (PCC) for permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM). The stability and robustness of the PCC system is highly affected by the parameters mismatch between the controller and the plant, and the inherent digital control delay can limit the bandwidth. Toward this, an integrated method...
Most of magnetic encoder ICs are on-axis, and they are generally suitable for inner rotor PMSM, sometimes used in external rotor PMSM. However, in some special occasions, these ICs are not used for the difficulty of mounting, for example, there is an external rotor PMSM with a hollow shaft, which is convenient for passing the control wire. It is difficult to mount these encoder ICs, because there...

The control objective is to generate a nearly rectangular air-gap flux for better iron utilization. The proposed method uses air-gap field-oriented control and rotor field-oriented control to realize a real-time adjustment of the third harmonic current under...
