Given today’s trend with environment being very important, there has been an ongoing attempt in the rotating machine industry to create machines with highest efficiency possible. And so, permanent magnet synchronous machines represent types of machine with very high efficiency and are gradually replacing other machines in many applications. This work deals with familiarization of the properties of permanent magnet synchronous motor as well as typical design choices. The main focus of this work is the design of permanent magnet EC motor and following comparison of results obtained from analytical design and analysis in the RMxprt program. Finally, the results of design methods are compared.

This work deals with the on-line identification of permanent magnet synchronous motor parameters. There is discussed the use of four different identification algorithms based on the least squares method and MRAS. The functionality of the algorithms is verified in Matlab - Simulink environment. Simulation results are compared in terms of rate and accuracy of identification, resistance to noise and other factors.

This master´s thesis deals with permanent magnet synchronous motor, which is part of hybrid system of Toyota Prius. You can find study of this motor in program FEMM in this thesis. Model of equivalent magnetic circuit and magnetic flux density are part of this work. There is also information about core losses.

The work is focused on the design of synchronous motor control with field weakening possibility. At present synchronous motors used in many applications. Often is used synchronous motor with permanent magnets. This type of motor may have different transverse and axial inductance. In most cases it is desirable to design the engine using a computer model. Therefore the synchronous motor described mathematically in order to create the model of motor. At work is also crated model of synchronous motor control. The control is designed for the highest possible speed range. Therefore, the motor control is consist of two parts. Speed is controlled by voltage in the first part. In the second part speed is controlled by field weakening. Everything is created and simulated in a computer program MATLAB-SIMULINK.

The purpose of this dissertation is to design identification methods for identifying a permanent magnet synchronous motor. The whole identification and motor control is carried out in d-q coordinates, and the program used for processing and control was the matlab simulink, together with the real time platform DSpace. The work focuses on two main areas of identification, off-line identification and on-line identification. For offline identification the frequency analysis was used with the lock rotor test to get three main parameters. They are the quadrature and direct inductances and stator resistance. In the online mode, the identified parameters were extended to magnet flux _f identified by MRAS method. The remaining parameters were again identified by frequency analysis, which was adapted into online mode, and simultaneously applied to the identification of several part in one time. The next method is Newton method, which is used for estimating stator resistance of the motor, without the need to apply any signal.

When developing three phase motor drives, the best way to validate the desiredfunctionality is to connect the inverter to an actual electrical motor. However, when developingfunctions which are not directly involved in controlling the motor, it could bemore efficient to use a real-time software model of the motor. In this master thesis, the developmentand implementation of a software model of a permanent magnet synchronousmotor (PMSM) is presented. This model was based on general dynamic equations forPMSM in a rotating reference frame (dq-frame). The model was simulated and convertedto C code using model based software development in Mathworks Simulink. To providemore realistic performance of the model, a finite element analysis (FEA) was done of anactual PMSM using the software tool FEMM. This analysis resulted in data describingthe relation between flux linkage and current which, when added into to software model,limits the produced torque due to magnetic saturation. Both the FEMM model and thefinal software model was compared to a corresponding actual motor for validation andperformance testing. All this resulted in a fully functional software model which was executableon the inverter. In the comparison of FEMM model to the real motor, a deviationin produced torque was discovered. This led to the conclusion that the model needed to beimproved to perform more alike the real motor. However, for this application the modelwas considered good enough to be used in future software development projects. / N¨ar kontrollsystem till trefasmotorer utvecklas s°a ¨ar det mest vanliga och troligendet b¨asta s¨attet f¨or funktionsvalidering att k¨ora drivenheten kopplad mot en riktig elektriskmotor.

The Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM) have wide application in the robotics field due to its efficiency and reliability. As a servo system, it demands high precision in different control applications. Torque ripple is a critical issue resulting in mechanical vibrations and shortening the life of PMSMs, especially at low speeds. Because the magnitude of speed harmonics is proportional to the magnitude of the torque harmonics of the same order, methods to reduce speed harmonics can be utilized for torque ripple minimization. This thesis work proposes three methods for torque ripple reduction. One method is based on harmonic speed control (HSC) and harmonic current control (HCC). Another method uses the fuzzy to adjust PI parameters based on HSC-HCC. The third method utilizes torque ripple estimation (TRE) and HCC. In the proposed methods, torque ripples are estimated using a torque ripple model (TRM). At low speeds, speed harmonics and current harmonics are obtained based on an adaptive linear neural-based filter. The errors between the optimal harmonic current reference from HSC or TRE and the harmonic current from extraction are used to generate harmonic voltage in HCC. This harmonic voltage is fed back to compensate and reduce torque ripple. Furthermore, a feedforward compensation method is proposed to minimize torque ripple across a range of speeds based on the feedback compensation results. Finally, simulations and experiments are carried out to demonstrate the validity and performance of the proposed torque ripple reduction methods.

This master’s thesis investigates the possibility of replacing the traditional triple cascaded Proportional-Integral (PI) controller architecture, used to regulate a PermanentMagnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM), with a state-space approach. Using theory regarding PMSMs and Electromechanical Actuators (EMAs) as a foundation, the thesisdescribes the design process of the proposed control methods up until implementation. The two state-space approaches evaluated in the thesis are: a single Linear-QuadraticRegulator (LQR) method and a torque reference generating LQR together with a setof two PI controllers for current regulation. Evaluation of the chosen methods wasdone based on simulations in Simulink/Simscape, containing verified models mimicking real hardware, with several input cases. Based on simulation results, the combined LQR and PI method was deemed promisingto replace the current cascaded PI control architecture. The open end of the reportallows for further implementation and evaluation on the real platform to confirm theresults obtaiend through simulations.

Cette thèse s'inscrit dans le cadre du projet Compacité qui vise à développer un compresseur électrique pour véhicules électriques à l’aide d’une démarche mécatronique. Dans cette thématique, le rôle du LGEP est de développer la partie électromécanique du compresseur. Cette thèse est constituée de deux parties, la première concerne la conception d’un moteur pour le compresseur et la deuxième a trait à la commande sans capteur mécanique de ce moteur. La première partie de la thèse est d'abord consacrée au dimensionnement d'une machine électrique pour un compresseur électrique. Le cahier des charges impose une machine compacte (97mm de diamètre et une profondeur inférieure à 50mm) et ayant une puissance massique élevée (6kW pour une masse de 1.8kg). Au préalable, un modèle analytique a été développé pour effectuer un dimensionnement rapide. Par la suite, la méthode des éléments finis a été appliquée à différents modèles physiques (magnétique, thermique, mécanique (résistance des matériaux et vibration)) pour une étude approfondie de la structure choisie. A l'issue de ces études, un prototype et un banc expérimental ont été réalisés. Dans un second temps, des algorithmes de commande avec ou sans capteur mécanique ont été étudiés pour le pilotage du moteur. La particularité de cette deuxième partie de thèse est la réalisation d'une commande peu gourmande en temps de calcul et implantable dans des microcontrôleurs de faibles performances. A l'issue de cette partie, une nouvelle loi de commande appelée commande passive échantillonnée ainsi qu'un observateur adaptatif étendu (observateur fondé sur l'estimation des fem) ont été développés et testés sur un banc expérimental. / This thesis is part of the project Compacite which aims to develop an electric compressor for electrical vehicles using a mechatronic approach. In this way, the LGEP contribution is to develop the electromechanical part of the compressor.The document is divided in two parts: the first one is related to the design of the motor and the second part is dedicated to the sensorless control.In the first part, the electromagnetic design is proposed to comply with the industrial constraints according to the compressor operation. The specifications require a compact motor (external diameter equal to 97 mm and an active depth less than 50 mm) and a good power/mass ratio (6 kW for a weight of 1.8 kg). At first the design is based on an analytical model in order to obtain a fast sizing. Thereafter the finite element method is used for multiphysical studies (magnetic, thermal and mechanical (in terms of strength of materials and vibration)). A prototype is built and characterized on a test bench. In the second part, some algorithmic control laws have been developed with sensor and sensorless control. In this part a particular control law (sampled data passivity based control) with a low algorithmic cost has been developed for driven the motor and has been validated on the test bench. At the end an observer based on the estimation of the electromotive force is used for sensorless control and validated on the test bench.

Le développement des véhicules hybrides et électriques s’est intensifié ces dernières années, face aux problématiques environnementales et économiques. Afin que les performances de ces derniers soient comparables à celle d’un véhicule à moteur thermique, de nombreuses avancées technologiques sont indispensables. Le déploiement de véhicule entièrement à traction électrique, ne serait être réalisable, sans des infrastructures de recharge adaptées. Cette thèse constitue une contribution à l’étude d’un chargeur de batteries intégré au véhicule électrique, dans le cadre du projet SOFRACI.L'architecture de ce chargeur entièrement réversible sert également pour la traction du véhicule. L’utilisation de tous les éléments y compris le moteur de traction pour les deux fonctions, réduit l’encombrement et le coût de la structure. L’objectif principal consiste à modéliser le système de conversion alternatif-continu du chargeur et à établir les lois de commandes.Lors de la première phase de l’étude, une attention particulière a été portée à l’utilisation des enroulements de la machine en tant qu’inductance de filtrage du convertisseur. Un modèle correspondant à ce fonctionnement a été obtenu et a permis de mettre en évidence un couplage magnétique existant entre les diverses phases.En s’appuyant sur les modèles obtenues, la seconde étape a consisté à définir les stratégies de commande. Deux méthodes ont été employées. La première, par le biais d’une transformation a permis de se ramener dans un repère, où la majorité des termes de couplage ont été éliminés. Pour l’autre méthode, tous les éléments du couplage ont été considérés. Pour chacune de ces stratégies, des correcteurs PI et RST fondés sur le placement de pôles robustes ont été dimensionnés pour garantir la stabilité du système.Une part importante du travail a été consacrée à la réalisation d’un banc d’essai expérimental reconstituant la conversion alternative-continue. Compte tenu des différences de dynamiques des grandeurs asservies, une carte FPGA et un processeur ont été utilisés. L’exploitation de ce moyen d’essai a permis de comparer et de valider les lois de commande développées. / Environmental constraints and reduction of fossil fuels resources have led industrials and laboratories to search for alternative solutions in the transportation domain. For the last few years, several vehicles or planes functions have been gradually electrified, up to their complete electrification. This thesis presents an AC/DC converter integrated in an Electric Vehicle (EV) for the charger application. The conversion is realized by using the electric traction powertrain, in order to reduce the global cost and increase compactness where a specific motor has been design.During the first phase of the study, a model of the motor used as filtering inductances has been obtained and allowed to highlight an existing magnetic coupling between the motor’s phases.The second step was to define control strategies. Two methods were used. The first one, by a transformation allowed eliminating the majority of the coupling term. In the other method, all coupling elements have been considered. For each strategies, IP and RST controllers based on robust pole placement were designed to ensure system stability.An important part of the work was devoted to the realization of an experimental test bench for AC-DC conversion. A FPGA and a processor were used for control implementation. The control laws has been compared and validated thanks to the experimental platform.
