In Line start permanent magnet synchronous motor, eccentricity is a common fault that can make it necessary to remove the motor from the production line. However, because the motor may be inaccessible, diagnosing the fault is not easy. This paper presents an FEM that identifies different models, static eccentricity, dynamic eccentricity, and mixed eccentricity, at no load and full load. The met...

This paper presents a thermal model of an axial flux permanent magnet synchronous motor (AFPMSM) with the structure of double-stator single-rotor called an axial-flux interior-rotor (AFIR) permanent magnet synchronous machine. The proposed 3D model involves formulation of the heat conduction equations of 3D model using finite element technique. The model considers most of the complexities of th...

This paper introduces a method for the modeling and analysis of a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (PMSM). The model is based on two dimensional Finite Element (FE) magnetic field analysis. The numerical data of FE solutions are used for obtaining the variations of the self and the mutual inductances and the flux linkages depending on the angular position rotor. In order to have a more gene...

The influence of dynamic eccentricity on the harmonic spectrum of the torque of a permanent magnet synchronous machine is studied. The spectrum is calculated by an energy balance method. Uncertainty quantification is applied by using generalized Polynomial Chaos and Monte Carlo. It is found that the displacement of the rotor impacts the spectrum of the torque the most.

In this paper we want to describe proposal of the fuzzy control of synchronous motor with permanent magnet and impact of deployment of membership functions of fuzzy controller on a regulation quality of a synchronous permanent magnet motor (PMSM). In the first part of this paper is described mathematical model of synchronous motor with permanent magnets and designed controller by using fuzzy lo...

SIMULATION OF POWER CONTROL OF A WIND TURBINE PERMANENT MAGNET SYNCHRONOUS GENERATOR SYSTEM Nantao Huang, B.S. Marquette University, 2013 This thesis presents a control system for a 2MW direct-drive permanent magnet synchronous generator wind turbine system with the objectives to capture the optimal power from the wind and ensure a maximum efficiency for this system.

This paper presents a lumped-parameter magnetic model for an interior permanent-magnet synchronous machine. The model accounts for the effects of saturation through a nonlinear reluctance-element network used to estimate the -axis inductance. The magnetic model is used to calculate inductance and torque in the presence of saturation. Furthermore, these calculations are compared to those from fi...

A new maximum power extraction (MPE) controller for variable speed permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) wind energy conversion systems (WECS) is proposed. The proposed controller generates optimum speed reference signal for the speed control loop of the vector controlled machine side converter control system without requiring the knowledge of wind speed using only active power and air ...
