Brushless dc (BLDC) motor drives are continually gaining popularity in motion control applications. Therefore, it is necessary to have a low cost, but effective BLDC motor speed/torque regulator. They are used in Residential and commercial appliances such as refrigerators and air conditioning systems with conventional motor drive technology. A Brushless DC (BLDC) drives are known for higher eff...

AbstractIn this paper, an efficient simulation model for fuzzy logic controlled brushless direct current motor drives using Matlab/Simulink is presented. The brushless direct current (BLDC) motor is efficiently controlled by Fuzzy logic controller (FLC). The control algorithms, fuzzy logic and PID are compared. Also, the dynamic characteristics of the BLDC motor (i.e. speed and torque) and as w...

Within the appliance motor control industry there is an increasing trend to move towards using brushless dc motors. This trend is in response to recent legislation mandating improved efficiency standards in appliance applications. Brushless dc motors do however require rotor position information in order to select the appropriate commutation angle. In cost sensitive applications such as applian...

While creating an industrial system which has an electric motor, the designers should to be think over not only control method but also motor type to create successful and efficiency system. If created system is an electric vehicle, designers have two powerful candidates as traction motor: Brushless AC (BLAC) or Brushless DC (BLDC) motors. In this study, a comparative performance investigation ...

The Brushless DC (BLDC) motor is a simple robust machine which has found application over a wide power and speed of ranges in different shapes and geometry. This paper briefly reviews the fundamentals behind the motor and also the different types of BLDC motors with different geometries and then presents a new configuration for BLDC motor/generator, which does not use a permanent magnet in the ...

The operational principle of the four-switch BLDC motor drive and the developed control scheme are theoretically analyzed and the performance is demonstra...

This paper presents the development of an experimental platform to test a real-time controller for a small Permanent Magnetic Brushless Direct Current (PM BLDC) motor using a Controller Area Network (CAN) communication bus. The CAN communication bus transmits and receives information between modules to control the speed, acceleration/deceleration, and rotational direction of the motor. The desi...
