Pulsating Torque Reduction for Permanent Magnet AC Motors

Control methods for pulsation of torque reduction for the surface-mounted permanent magnet motors are discussed in the paper. The pulsation torque is a consequence of the non-sinusoidal flux distribution and due to interaction of the rotor’s permanent magnets with the changing stator reluctance. Proposed control method is estimator based. To assure parameter convergence Lyapunov’s direct method...

Cogging Torque Reduction of Sandwiched Stator Axial Flux Permanent Magnet Brushless DC Motor using Magnet Notching Technique

Cogging torque reduction of axial flux permanent magnet brushless dc (PMBLDC) motor is an important issue which demands attention of machine designers during design process. This paper presents magnet notching technique to reduce cogging torque of axial flux PMBLDC motor designed for electric vehicle application. Reference axial flux PMBLDC motor of 250 W, 150 rpm is designed with 48 stator slo...

A Synchronous/Permanent Magnet Hybrid AC Machine

In this paper, a synchronous/permanent magnet hybrid(SynPM) machine is presented. It is shown that the machine has good power density and efficiency, and that the machine has true field regulation capability. The principle of operation, finite element analysis and simulation of this new machine are investigated in the paper.

Sensorless fuzzy sliding mode control for permanent magnet synchronous motor fed by AC/DC/AC converter

In this paper a systematic fuzzy sliding mode controller is presented for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) sensorless drives. The fuzzy sliding mode controller is designed based on input–output feedback linearization control technique. The extended Kalman filter is used to estimate the speed, position and load torque. The PMSM is fed from indirect power electronics converter. This indi...
