Řízení stroje s PM v d-q osách při použití Matlab/Simulink / Control of salient PM machine using d-q frame machine model and Matlab Simulink

Dušek, Jiří January 2010 (has links)
Tato práce se zabývá synchronním motorem s permanentními magnety na rotoru (PMSM), jeho modelováním a návrhu regulační struktury. V práci jsou uvedeny způsoby a výhody použití permanentních magnetů v elektrických motorech. Dále se práce zabývá transformací třífázové soustavy do dq0. Pomocí Parkovy transformace jsou v práci odvozeny rovnice stroje v dq0 souřadnicovém systému a vytvořeny náhradní schémata stroje v dq osách. Rovnice i schémata zahrnují jak ztráty v mědi, tak ztráty v železe. Náhradní schémata jsou popsány elektrickými a mechanickými rovnicemi a následně překresleny do grafické podoby v programu Matlab Simulink. Vytvořeny jsou dva modely PMSM, jeden s uvažováním ztrát v železe a druhý bez těchto ztrát. Pro oba dva modely je zde popsán postup návrhu regulátorů proudu a otáček. Pro model, u kterého jsou uvažovány ztráty v železe je navíc použito více druhů řídicích strategií a tyto strategie jsou mezi sebou navzájem porovnány.

No. of bitstreams: 1 arquivototal.pdf: 1577961 bytes, checksum: c71d976d783495df566e0fa6baadf8ca (MD5) Previous issue date: 2009-08-06 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / We start this work studying the appearance of geometric quantum phases as in the relativistic as in the non-relativistic quantum dynamics of a neutral particle with permanent magnetic and electric dipole moment which interacts with external electric and magnetic fields in the presence of linear topological defects. We describe the linear topological defects using the approach proposed by Katanaev and Volovich, where the topological defects in solids are described by line elements which are solutions of the Einstein's equations in the context of general relativity. We also analyze the in uence of non-inertial effects in the quantum dynamics of a neutral particle using two distinct reference frames for the observers: one is the Fermi-Walker reference frame and another is a rotating frame. As a result, we shall see that the difference between these two reference frames is in the presence/absence of dragging effects of the spacetime which makes its in uence on the phase shift of the wave function of the neutral particle. In the following, we shall use our study of geometric quantum phases to make an application on the Holonomic Quantum Computation, where we shall show a new approach to implement the Holonomic Quantum Computation via the interaction between the dipole moments of the neutral particle and external fields and the presence of linear topological defects. Another applications for the Holonomic Quantum Computation is based in the structure of the topological defects in graphene layers. In the presence of topological defects, a graphene layer shows two distinct phase shifts: one comes from the mix of Fermi points while the other phase shift comes from the topology of the defect. To provide a geometric description for each phase shift in the graphene layer, we use the Kaluza-Klein theory where we establish that the extra dimension describes the Fermi points in the graphene layer. Hence, we can implement the Holonomic Quantum Computation through the possibility to build cones and anticones of graphite in such way we can control the quantum uxes in graphene layers. In the last part of this work, we study the Landau quantization for neutral particles as in the relativistic dynamics and non-relativistic dynamics. In the non-relativistic dynamics, we study the Landau quantization in the presence of topological defects as in an inertial as in a non-inertial reference frame. In the relativistic quantum dynamics, we start our study with the Landau quantization in the Minkowisky considering two different gauge fields. At the end, we study the relativistic Landau quantization for neutral particles in the Cosmic Dislocation spacetime. / Neste trabalho estudamos inicialmente o surgimento de fases geometricas nas dinâmicas quânticas relativística e não-relativística de uma partícula neutra que possui momento de dipolo magnético e elétrico permanente interagindo com campos elétricos e magnéticos externos na presença de defeitos topológicos lineares. Para descrevermos defeitos topológicos lineares usamos a aproximação proposta por Katanaev e Volovich, onde defeitos lineares em sólidos são descritos por elementos de linha que são soluções das equações de Einstein no contexto da relatividade geral. Analisamos também a inuência de efeitos não-inerciais na dinâmica quântica de uma partícula neutra em dois tipos distintos de referenciais para os observadores: um é o referencial de Fermi-Walker e outro é um referencial girante. Vemos que a diferença entre dois referenciais está na presença/ausência de efeitos de arrasto do espaço-tempo que irá influenciar diretamente na mudança de fase na funçãao de onda da partícula neutra. Em seguida, usamos nosso estudo de fases geométricas para fazer aplicações na Computação Quântica Holonômica onde mostramos uma nova maneira de implementar a Computação Quântica Holonômica através da interação entre momentos de dipolo e campos externos e pela presença de defeitos topológicos lineares. Outra aplicação para a Computação Quântica Holonômica está baseada na estrutura de defeitos topológicos em um material chamado grafeno. Na presença de defeitos topológicos lineares, esse material apresenta duas fases quânticas de origens distintas: uma da mistura dos pontos de Fermi e outra da topologia do defeito. Para dar uma descrição geométrica para a origem de cada fase no grafeno usamos a Teoria de Kaluza-Klein, onde a dimensão extra sugerida por esta teoria descreve os pontos de Fermi no grafeno. Portanto, a implementação da Computação Quântica Holonômica no grafeno está baseada na possibilidade de construir cones e anticones de grafite de tal maneira que se possa controlar os fluxos quânticos no grafeno. Na última parte deste trabalho estudamos a quantização de Landau para partículas neutras tanto na dinâmica não-relativística quanto na dinâmica relativística. Na dinâmica não-relativítica, estudamos a quantização de Landau na presença de defeitos em um referecial inercial e, em seguida, em um referencial nãoo-inercial. Na dinâmica relativística, estudamos inicialmente a quantização de Landau no espaço-tempo plano em duas configurações de campos diferentes. Por fim, estudamos a quantização de Landau relativística para partículas neutras no espaço-tempo da deslocação cósmica.

São desenvolvidos modelos matemáticos para representar as características dinâmicas dos painéis fotovoltaicos, do conversor fonte de tensão (VSC -“Voltage Source Converter”) e da rede de distribuição. A modelagem do sistema de geração disperso (SGD) é feita no sistema de coordenadas síncrono (dq), fornecendo um sistema de equações diferenciais que pode ser usado para descrever o comportamento dinâmico do sistema quando as tensões da rede estão equilibradas ou desequilibradas. O conversor é controlado no modo de corrente, através da estratégia de modulação vetorial (Space Vector Modulation - SVM). São projetadas duas malhas de controle em cascata para controlar o conversor estático. A malha interna controla a corrente injetada na rede enquanto que a externa controla a tensão no barramento CC do conversor. O controle da tensão CC permite rastrear o ponto de máxima potência do painel PV além de controlar a quantidade de potência ativa injetada na rede CA. Um método ativo de detecção de ilhamento baseado na injeção de corrente de sequência negativa é incorporado ao sistema de controle. Resultados de simulações digitais obtidos com o programa ATP (Alternative Transient Program ) são utilizados para validar os modelos matemáticos e as estratégias de controle. Finalmente, um protótipo experimental de pequena escala é montado em laboratório. Todo o sistema de controle do protótipo experimental foi implementado no DSP TMS320F28212. Os resultados obtidos demonstram o funcionamento do sistema e podem ser usados para validar a estratégia de controle utilizada. / This dissertation presents a control strategy for a single-stage, three-phase, photovoltaic systems to be connected to a distribution network. Mathematical models are developed to represent the dynamic characteristics of the photovoltaic panels, the voltage-source converter (VSC) and the distribution network. The modeling of the dispersed generation system (DGS) is done in the synchronous reference frame (dq), providing a system of differential equations that describes the dynamic behavior of the system when the network voltages are balanced or unbalanced. The converter is controlled in current mode through the space vector modulation (SVM) strategy. Two control loops are designed to control the static converter. The inner loop controls the injected current into the network while the external loop controls the converter DC bus voltage. The DC voltage regulator allows to track the PV maximum power point and to control the active power injected into the AC grid. An active islanding detection method based on negative-sequence current injection is incorporated into the control system. Digital simulations results obtained with Alternative Transients Program (ATP) is used to validate the mathematical models and the control strategies. Finally, a small-scale experimental prototype is implemented in the laboratory. The whole control system of the experimental prototype was programmed in DSP TMS320F2812 of Texas Instruments. The results demonstrate that the operation of the system can be used to validate the applied control strategy.

Current-based Techniques for Condition Monitoring of Pumps

Becker, Vincent 12 December 2022 (has links)
[ES] Las bombas hidráulicas son el núcleo de muchos procesos en la industria y el sector servicios. Conviene tener en cuenta que los motores eléctricos son responsables del 69% del consumo de energía eléctrica en la industria, siendo en torno a un 22% de motores utilizados para el accionamiento de bombas. Los fallos de estas bombas pueden provocar averías en el proceso y, por lo tanto, implican altos costes económicos para el operador de la planta. Además, un funcionamiento defectuoso de las bombas conlleva una reducción de la eficiencia energética de la planta. De forma habitual, se utilizan principalmente dos tipos de estrategias orientadas al mantenimiento de maquinaria. Una estrategia de mantenimiento (mantenimiento preventivo) consiste en la sustitución de las piezas desgastadas en un intervalo de tiempo fijo. Este tipo de estrategia presenta muchas desventajas asociadas a la escasa optimización en el uso de los recursos y al consiguiente impacto económico. Por otro lado, la estrategia basada en la condición del equipo (mantenimiento basado en la condición) liga el reemplazo de las piezas desgastadas al estado del equipo, el cual es monitorizado a través de señales adquiridas mediante sensores. Sin embargo, el uso de sensores tiene algunos inconvenientes, como costes de inversión adicionales, posibles problemas en el montaje del sensor y posibles fallos del mismo. El análisis de la señal de corriente no se ha utilizado de forma habitual en la práctica para evaluar el estado de la bomba, aunque en muchas aplicaciones se dispone de sensores de corriente ya instalados que se podrían utilizar a tal fin. Se ha demostrado que técnicas basadas en el análisis de la corriente resultan de gran utilidad para diagnosticar varios tipos de fallos en motores eléctricos. De hecho, el análisis de la firma de corriente del motor se utiliza hoy en día ampliamente en la industria, especialmente para el diagnóstico de fallos en motores de inducción. En la presente tesis, se evalúa la utilización de la técnica de análisis de corrientes para el diagnóstico de fallos típicos relacionados con las bombas en diferentes aplicaciones. Se investigan tres tipos de bombas diferentes: bombas en línea de rotor húmedo, bombas de rotor seco y bombas sumergibles. En la tesis se han adaptado diversas técnicas, previamente empleadas para la detección de fallos en motores, al diagnóstico de fallos en la propia bomba. Los resultados indican que fallos como obstrucción de la bomba, fisura del impulsor y desgaste de los cojinetes influyen especialmente en dos frecuencias del espectro de corriente, las cuales pueden utilizarse como base de estrategias de mantenimiento basadas en la condición. En concreto, en las bombas de rotor húmedo, estos dos indicadores de fallo varían sensiblemente en función del punto de carga hidráulica de la bomba. Con la ayuda de un método de extracción de características basado en la motor reference frame theory, se demuestra que las mencionadas frecuencias pueden analizarse en tiempo real en un entorno industrial. Además, se presentan directrices para la monitorización en la nube y se valida con la ayuda de ensayos de laboratorio. Adicionalmente, se demuestra que los fallos son también detectables al analizar la corriente de arranque mediante herramientas de descomposición tiempo-frecuencia. Este hito no se había abordado anteriormente en la literatura técnica del área en lo referente a la detección de fallos en bombas. En conclusión, los resultados de este trabajo demuestran que los métodos de diagnóstico basados en la corriente pueden detectar con éxito diversos tipos de fallo en bombas, lo cual constituye un punto de gran interés para las industrias que utilicen estos activos en sus procesos. / [CA] Les bombes hidràuliques són el nucli de molts processos en la indústria i en el sector dels serveis. Cal mencionar que els motors elèctrics són responsables del 69% del consum de la energia elèctrica en la indústria, sent al voltant del 22% dels motors utilitzats per l'accionament de bombes. Les fallades d'aquestes bombes poden causar avaries en els processos, i per tant, representen un alt cost econòmic per a l'operador de la planta. A més a més, un funcionament defectuós en les bombes representa una reducció de l'eficiència energètica de la planta. De manera habitual, s'utilitzen principalment dos tipus d'estratègies orientades al manteniment de la maquinària. Una estratègia de manteniment (manteniment preventiu) consisteix en la canvi de les peces desgastades en un interval fixe de temps. Aquest tipus d'estratègia presenta molts desavantatges associats a la reduïda optimització en el ús dels recursos i el seu impacte econòmic. D'altra banda, la estratègia basada en la condició dels equipaments (manteniment basat en la condició) enllaça la substitució de les peces desgastades al estat de l'equip, el qual es monitoritzat per mig de senyals adquirides per sensors. No obstant això, el ús de sensors té alguns inconvenients com costos d'inversió addicionals, possibles problemes al muntatge i possibles fallades. L'anàlisi dels senyals de corrent no s'utilitzen de manera habitual en la pràctica per avaluar l'estat de la bomba, encara que en moltes aplicacions, estos sensors es troben instal·lats i es podrien fer servir per a aquesta finalitat. Ha estat demostrat que les tècniques basades en l'anàlisi de la corrent són de gran utilitat per el diagnosi de diversos tipus de fallades en motors elèctrics. De fet, l'anàlisi de la firma de la corrent del motor s'utilitza àmpliament en l'indústria, especialment per el diagnosi de fallades en motors d'inducció. En la present tesi, s'avalua l'utilització de la tècnica d'anàlisi de corrents per el diagnosi de fallades típiques relacionades en bombes per a diferents aplicacions. Se investiguen tres tipus de bombes diferents: bombes en línia de rotor humit, bombes de rotor sec i bombes submergibles. En aquesta tesi se han adaptat diverses tècniques, prèviament utilitzades en el diagnosi de màquines elèctriques, per al diagnosi de la pròpia bomba. Els resultat indiquen que les fallades com obstrucció de la bomba, la fissura de l'impulsor i el desgast dels coixinets influeixen especialment en dos freqüències de l'espectre de la corrent, les quals es poden utilitzar com a base per a una estratègia de manteniment basada en la condició. Particularment, en les bombes de rotor humit, aquestos dos indicadors de fallada varíen sensiblement en funció del punt de càrrega hidràulica de la bomba. En l'ajuda de un mètode d'extracció de característiques basat en la "motor reference frame theory", es demostra que les mencionades freqüències es poden analitzar en temps real en un entorn industrial. A més a més, es presenten directrius per la monitorització en el núvol i es valida en l'ajuda de assajos en el laboratori. Addicionalment, es demostra que les fallades són també detectables quan s'analitza la corrent d'arrancada mitjançant ferramentes de descomposició temps-freqüència. Aquest fet no ha estat analitzat prèviament en cap tipus de literatura tècnica dins del camp de detecció de fallades en bombes. En conclusió, els resultats d'aquest treball demostren que els mètodes de diagnosi basats en la corrent poden detectar en èxit diversos tipus de fallades en bombes, el qual constitueix un punt d'interés per a l'indústria que utilitzen aquest tipus de actiu en els seus processos. / [EN] Pumps are the heart of many processes in industry and service sector. Electric motors are responsible for 69% of electric energy consumption in industry, with 22% of them being used for the operation of pumps. Pump faults can lead to process breakdowns and are thus related to high costs for the plant operator. Furthermore, faulty operation of pumps reduces the energy efficiency of the plant. In many cases, a time-based maintenance strategy is applied, which means that typical wear parts are replaced within defined time cycles, which comes with some drawbacks such as poor resource efficiency and high costs. Condition-based maintenance strategies - meaning that the replacement of parts is planned based on the condition of the pump - are often based on the evaluation of sensor signals like vibration or noise. However, the use of sensors also has some drawbacks, such as additional investment costs, frequent problems with the sensor mounting, and possible sensor faults. There is no widespread use of the current signal to make statements about the pump condition, although current sensors are installed in many applications anyway. As for motor fault diagnosis, different current-based techniques have demonstrated their function. Today, motor current signature analysis is used in industry, especially for the diagnosis of induction motors. In this thesis, the current-based diagnosis of typical pump-related faults in different applications is evaluated. In total, three different pump types are investigated: a wet-rotor pump, a dry-runner inline pump, and a submersible pump. The techniques used for motor fault detection are adapted for the diagnosis of pump-related faults. The results indicate that the faults clogging, impeller crack, and bearing wear, in particular, influence two frequencies in the current spectrum, which can be used as a basis for a condition-based maintenance strategy. Especially in wet-rotor pumps, these two fault indicators strongly vary depending on the hydraulic load point of the pump. With the help of a feature extraction method based on the adapted reference frame theory, this work demonstrates that the two frequencies can be analyzed in real time in a field environment. Furthermore, a concept for cloud monitoring is presented and validated with the help of a laboratory test. Additionally, it is demonstrated that the faults are visible if the starting current is evaluated in a time-frequency map, which has not been considered before in the literature on pump-related faults. In summary, the findings of this work indicate that current-based diagnosis methods can successfully detect typical faults in pumps, a fact that is of high interest for companies using these assets in their industrial processes. / Becker, V.

Mitigating VR Cybersickness Caused by Continuous Joystick Movement

Aditya Ajay Oka (16529664) 13 July 2023 (has links)
<p>When users begin to experience virtual reality (VR) for the first time, they can be met with some degree of motion sickness and nausea, especially if continuous joystick locomotion is used. The symptoms that are induced during these VR experiences fall under the umbrella term cybersickness, and due to these uncomfortable experiences, these users can get a bad first impression and abandon the innovative technology, not able to fully appreciate the convenience and fascinating adventures VR has to offer. As such, this project compares the effects of two cybersickness mitigation methods (Dynamic Field of View (FOV) and Virtual Reference Frame), both against each other and combined, on user-reported cybersickness symptoms to determine the best combination to implement in commercial applications to help create more user-friendly VR experiences. The hypothesis is that combining the FOV reduction and the resting frame methods can mitigate VR cybersickness more effectively without hindering the user’s experience and the virtual nose method is more potent at mitigating cybersickness compared to dynamic FOV. To test these hypotheses, an experimental game was developed for the Meta Quest 2 with five levels: a tutorial level and four maze levels (one for each scenario). The participants were asked to complete the tutorial level until they got used to the virtual reality controls, and then they were instructed to complete the maze level twice with one of the following conditions for each run: no method, dynamic field of view only, virtual nose only, and dynamic field of view and virtual nose combined. After completing each maze trial, the participants were asked to complete a simulator sickness questionnaire to get their thoughts on how much sickness they felt during the test. Upon concluding the testing phase with 36 participants and compiling the data, the results showed that while the subjects preferred the dynamic FOV method even though they were able to complete the trials significantly faster with the virtual nose method, it is inconclusive regarding which method is truly more effective. Furthermore, the results showed that it is also inconclusive if the scenario with both methods enabled is significantly better or worse than either method used separately.</p>
