Model predictive flux control of permanent magnet synchronous motor driven by three-level inverter based on fine-division strategy

Aiming at the difficulty of setting the weight coefficient in the value function of model predictive torque control(MPTC)for permanent magnet synchronous motor(PMSM)driven by three-level inverter,a fine-division model predictive flux control(MPFC)method is proposed.First,establish a mathematical model between the motor torque and the stator flux linkage according to the mathematical equations of PMSM.Thus,the control of the motor torque and stator flux linkage in the MPTC is transformed into the control of a single stator flux linkage vector,omitting the cumbersome weight setting process in the traditional MPTC.The midpoint potential control strategy is proposed,which uses the characteristics of redundant small vectors to balance the midpoint potential.After that,a fine-division strategy is proposed,which effectively reduces the number of candidate vectors and the computational burden of the system.Finally,the proposed MPFC is compared with MPTC by simulation.The results show that the proposed fine-division MPFC effectively reduces the system calculation,and has the advantages of simple principle and better dynamic and steady-state control performance.The feasibility of the control strategy is verified.

This paper reviews various hybrid excited(HE)machines from the perspective of location of PM and DC excitation,series/parallel connection of PM and DC excited magnetic fields,and 2D/3D magnetic fields,respectively.The advantages as well as drawbacks of each category are analyzed.Since an additional control degree,i.e.DC excitation,is introduced in the HE machine,the flux weakening control strategies are more complex.The flux weakening performance as well as efficiency are compared with different control strategies.Then,the potential to mitigate the risk of uncontrolled overvoltage fault at high speed operation is highlighted by controlling the field excitation.Since additional DC coils are usually required for HE machines compared with pure PM excitation,the spatial confliction inevitably results in electromagnetic performance reduction.Finally,the technique to integrate the field and armature windings with open-winding drive circuit is introduced,and novel HE machines without a DC coil are summarized.

Application of direct torque control to electric screw presses for speeding up torque response and reducing starting current

Fast response and stable torque output are crucial to the performance of electric screw presses. This paper describes the design of a direct torque control （DTC） system for speeding up torque response and reducing the starting current of electric screw presses and its application to the J58K series of numerical control electric screw presses with a dual-motor drive. The DTC drive system encompasses speed control, torque reference control, and switching frequency control. Comparison of the DTC dual-AC induction motor drive with corresponding AC servo motor drive showed that for the J58K-315 electric screw press, the DTC drive system attains a higher maximum speed （786 r/min） within a shorter time （1.13 s） during a 250 nun stroke and undergoes smaller rise in temperature （42.0 ℃） in the motor after running for 2 h at a 12 min-1 strike frequency than the AC servo motor drive does （751 r/min within 1.19 s, and 50.6 ℃ rise）. Moreover, the DTC AC induction motor drive, with no need for a tachometer or position encoder to feed back the speed or position of the motor shaft, enjoys increased reliability in a strong-shock work environment.

A novel technology for control of variable speed pumped storage power plant

Variable speed pumped storage machines are used extensively in wind power plant and pumped storage power plant. This paper presents direct torque and flux control(DTFC) of a variable speed pumped storage power plant(VSPSP). By this method both torque and flux have been applied to control the VSPSP. The comparison between VSPSP's control strategies is studied. At the first, a wind turbine with the capacity 2.2 k W and DTFC control strategies simulated then a 250 MW VSPSP is simulated with all of its parts(including electrical, mechanical, hydraulic and its control system) by MATLAB software. In all of simulations, both converters including two-level voltage source converter(2LVSC) and three-level voltage source converter(3LVSC) are applied. The results of applying 2LVSC and 3LVSC are the rapid dynamic responses with better efficiency, reducing the total harmonic distortion(THD) and ripple of rotor torque and flux.

ANFIS Based Space Vector Modulation-DTC for Switched Reluctance Motor Drive

Direct torque control (DTC) of Switched reluctance motor is known straightforward control structure with similar execution to that of field situated control strategies. In any case, the part of ideal determination of the voltage space vector is one of the weakest focuses in a routine DTC drive because of adjustable switching frequency and high torque ripple. In this paper, ideal choice of voltage space vectors is accomplished utilizing ANFIS (Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System) with space vector Modulation. SVM-DTC gives consistent switching frequency and the proposed ANFIS controller’s structure manages the torque and stator flux error signals through the fuzzy deduction to get a yield that takes the type of space voltage vector. Simulation results accept the proposed evolutionary system with quick torque and flux reaction with minimized torque ripple and flux ripple.

A Comparative Overview of Indirect Field Oriented Control (IFOC) and Deadbeat-Direct Torque and Flux Control (DB-DTFC) for AC Motor Drives

Indirect field oriented control(IFOC)has become a widely adopted solution for AC motor drives.Standard IFOC controls torque and rotor flux linkage via q-and d-axis current.Alternatively,deadbeat-direct torque and flux control(DB-DTFC)has emerged as a promising motor control strategy for the future,which manipulates Volt-sec.vector directly.Air-gap torque and stator flux linkage are decoupled and independently controlled over each switching period.Stator flux linkage is used as a separated degree-of-freedom to manipulate losses dynamically without compromising torque dynamics and torque ripple.In voltage-limited operations,direct selection of Volt-sec.allows DB-DTFC to fully utilize the dc bus voltage and produce fast torque.A single control law is used over a wide speed range.This paper aims to provide a comparative overview of the two motor controls regarding their sensitivity to parameters,current-and voltage-limited operation,loss manipulation,and torque ripple during signal injection.Based on the comparison,the ultimate objective is to demonstrate the opportunities and remaining challenges in DB-DTFC.

Next-Generation Plant Metabolic Engineering, Inspired by an Ancient Chinese Irrigation System

Specialized secondary metabolites serve not only to protect plants against abiotic and biotic challenges, but have also been used extensively by humans to combat diseases. Due to the great importance of medicinal plants for health, we need to find new and sustainable ways to improve the production of the specialized metabolites. In addition to direct extraction, recent progress in metabolic engineering of plants offers an alternative supply option. We argue that metabolic engineering for producing the second- ary metabolites in plants may have distinct advantages over microbial production platforms, and thus pro- pose new approaches of plant metabolic engineering, which are inspired by an ancient Chinese irrigation system. Metabolic engineering strategies work at three levels： introducing biosynthetic genes, using tran- scription factors, and improving metabolic flux including increasing the supply of precursors, energy, and reducing power. In addition, recent progress in biotechnology contributes markedly to better engineering, such as the use of specific promoters and the deletion of competing branch pathways. We propose that next-generation plant metabolic engineering will improve current engineering strategies, for the purpose of producing valuable metabolites in plants on industrial scales.

Super twisting sliding mode approach applied to voltage orientated control of a stand-alone induction generator

To enhance the robustness and dynamic performance of a self-excited induction generator (SEIG) used in a stand-alone wind energy system (WES), a virtual flux oriented control (VFOC) based on nonlinear super-twisting sliding mode control (STSMC) is adopted. STSMC is used to replace the conventional proportional-integral-Fuzzy Logic Controller (PI-FLC) of the inner current control loops. The combination of the proposed control strategy with space vector modulation (SVM) applied to a PWM rectifier brings many advantages such as reduction in harmonics, and precise and rapid tracking of the references. The performance of the proposed control technique (STSMC-VFOC-SVM) is verified through simulations and compared with the traditional technique (PI-FLC-VFOC-SVM). It shows that the proposed method improves the dynamics of the system with reduced current harmonics. In addition, the use of a virtual flux estimator instead of a phase-locked loop (PLL) eliminates the line voltage sensors and thus increases the reliability of the system.
