This paper presents the methodology of tuning two position servo drive systems with Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM): Field Oriented Control (FOC) based on current model of motor and FOC based on voltage model of motor. These two strategies are Vector Control (VC) methods and provide a solution for high performance drives but the choice one of these algorithms determines the type of i...

This paper presents a systematic approach of optimal design and control of a surface-mount, permanent-magnet synchronous torque motor for the next-generation machine tools. A step-by-step procedure of optimization integrates multiple performance objectives and constraints to help the designer make the best decision on the final motor geometry from both design and control perspectives. In the pe...

The paper presents a space-vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) inverter feeding a permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). The SVPWM inverter enables to feed the motor with a higher voltage with low harmonic distortions than the conventional sinusoidal PWM inverter. The control strategy of the inverter is the voltage / frequency control method, which is based on the space-vector modulation ...

This paper deals with the designing of neural PID speed controller of Permanent Magnet synchronous Motor (PMSM). The conventional Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller is largely used in industry because of the robustness this regulator procures. ANN is developed controller in this work, offer inherent advantages over conventional PID controller for PMSM, Reduction of the effects of...

This paper studies the effects of symmetrical voltage sags on the operational characteristics of a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) by Finite Element Method (FEM). Voltage sags may cause high torque pulsations which can damage the shaft or equipment connected to the motor. By recognizing the critical voltage sags, sags that produce hazardous torque variations could be prevented. Simula...

In this paper, different electric motors are studied and compared to see the benefits of each motor and the one that is more suitable to be used in the electric vehicle (EV) applications. There are five main electric motor types, DC, induction, permanent magnet synchronous, switched reluctance and brushless DC motors are studied. It is concluded that although the induction motors technology is ...

Energy efficiency is an essential aspect of motor technologies. The replacement conventional Single Phase Induction Motor (SPIM) by Permanent Magnet Synchronous (PMSM), Reluctance (SynRM), or Switched (SRM) for energy-efficient operation leads to high capital expenses. This paper presents a cost-effective design method improve the existing SPIM. It implements novel idea transforming it Line Sta...

Model-based predictive control (MPC) is one of the most efficient techniques that is widely used in industrial applications. In such controllers, increasing the prediction horizon results in better selection of the optimal control signal sequence. On the other hand, increasing the prediction horizon increase the computational time of the optimization process which make it impossible to be imple...
