Fuzzy logic is recently getting increasing emphasis in soft computing applications in the recent days. This paper presents an application of the fuzzy logic scheme to control the speed of an AC servo system & the same is proposed for a space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) inverter-fed permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive. Based on the analysis of the PMSM transient response, a...

in this paper, computer simulation of a three-phase synchronous motor drive is described. this drive/system is supplied with a new type of pulse-width modulated voltage source inverter (pwm vsi) whose amplitude of the first harmonic, compared to a conventional sinusoidal pwm vsi, is increased by about 17% and whose amplitude of higher harmonics is also reduced inversely proportional to their or...

This thesis includes an investigation of the starting capability of a high efficiency synchronous motor for direct on-line industrial applications. The approach is to use a hybrid rotor concept to achieve the starting properties of an induction motor and the steady state performance of a synchronous reluctance motor. The hybrid motor rated at 20 kW is compared and evaluated against a same size ...

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) variable-speed drive is widely used in the industry because of its particularly high mechanical power density, simplicity and cost effectiveness. Eliminating the mechanical sensor mounted on the shaft of the motors gives further improvement. These drives are referred to as “sensorless” electrical drives. In this paper a novel sensorless algorithm is pro...

The paper considers abnormal operation modes of an electric drive power subsystem with permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), such as breakdown and burnout of IGBT-transistor in the three-phase inverter. The effect of these faults on the spectrum and form of the currents in the windings of the synchronous motor was studied. Heuristic algorithms based on the form features of the winding curr...

During a long time, permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) were only reserved for some specific applications, however, recently, these machines are becoming more used due to the powerful magnetic characteristic of the rare earth, being used in different areas. Recently several researchers have proposed implementations combining the use of permanent magnet synchronous motor with the direct to...
