An interior permanent magnet synchronous motor(IPMSM) has been applied to the electric vehicle due to its high efficiency, compact volume, and wide operating speed ranges. This paper presents the analysis of the flux weakening operating regions at high speeds for the IPMSM that has back emf harmonics. The effect of the back emf harmonics on the motor speed and the maximum torque is analyzed. Also the dq currents for maximum torque operation under the voltage and the current limit conditions are analyzed. The conventional analysis and the presented analysis for the flux weakening operating regions are compared and the maximum torque -speeds characteristics for both analysis are verified through the experiment.
This study proposes an LLC series resonant converter with a current doubler using a coupled inductor as a rectification circuit for the secondary side. The current doubler circuit is generally used for a high-voltage input and low-voltage output circuit to obtain high efficiency with small transformer turn ratio. However, an inductive circuit is not generally used in the secondary side of an LLC series resonant converter. If inductive components exist on the secondary side, the resonant characteristics are changed through the secondary inductive circuit. Mathematical analysis shows that the secondary-side current doubler with coupled inductor is not affected by the resonant characteristic of the primary LLC if leakage inductance occurs in the coupled inductor. Results of the analysis are proven by simulation; an experiment is also conducted for the proposed circuit.
In this paper, a new simple PWM method for Vienna rectifier is proposed. The previous SVPWM method for Vienna rectifier is very complex and difficult to implement. To solve these problems, a new single-carrier comparison PWM method for voltage control of Vienna rectifier is proposed. Because of using the only single carrier, implementation of the proposed PWM is very simple. In the proposed PWM method, carrier comparison parts of the PWM block is only changed from the 2 level PWM control block. The usefulness of the proposed PWM method is verified by the simulation and experiment.
The voltage and current distortion at the AC utility system due to PWM switching is generated according to the existence of source mductance(Lu) These voltage or current distortion generate electro-magnetic interference (EMI) problem to near equipment. To solve these problems, AC filter capacitor is needed to absorb the switching voltage and current distortion. However, the using of the AC filter is induced the problem of leading current, and the resonance between AC filter capacitor(Ct) and source inductance(Lu) in the utility system. In this paper, a new leading current compensation scheme for three phase PWM AC/DC converter is presented to reduce the leading current and the resonance of Cf and Lu*Lb/ (Lu+Lb). An analysis and experiments are performed to verify the proposed current control scheme by implementing a 6 kW (450VDC, 16A), 20kHz IGBT based experimental circuit.
In this paper, carrier comparison PWM method for voltage control of Vienna rectifier is discussed. In general, in industrial and communications applications, the two-level rectifier is used. However, this two-level rectifier has the limit of high THD and low efficiency. So, the studies of three-level rectifier has been carried out so far, and the Vienna rectifier circuit is the representative. The space vector pulse width modulation(SVPWM) method is generally used for Vienna rectifier, in which voltage vectors and duration time are calculated from the voltage reference. However, this method require very sophisticated and complex calculations, so realizing this method by software is very difficult. To overcome this disadvantage, simple carrier comparison PWM method for Vienna rectifier is proposed which is modified from the carrier comparison method for 3 level inverter. Furthermore, to verify the usefulness of the Vienna rectifier carrier comparison PWM the simulation and experiment are carried out.
