Abstract:This paper presents an integration of the interleaved bi-directional DC/DC converter with a vector controlled permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive to give the motor operating in high speed with minimum copper loss control. The interleaved DC/DC converter is designed in the discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) such that the controller design becomes straightforward. The large signal perturbation usually makes the controller saturation and the inductor over current. Hence, the anti-windup and current l… Show more
“…It broadened the output torque and the power of the motor system. Implementing a constant boost voltage system would improve the system efficiency [17], [18]. A variable DC-link voltage scheme was also used in drive systems [19], [20].…”
Load current ripple is an important issue in the design and control of inverters since it influences the torque ripple and noise amplitude of a motor drive. The current ripple of Z-source inverter (ZSI) is analyzed in this paper. The expression of current ripple is derived and the current ripples of ZSI and voltage-source inverter (VSI) are compared. A variable DC-link voltage and switching frequency method was adopted to reduce conduction and switching losses without increasing the predicted peak current ripple. These theoretical findings were further verified by simulations and experiments.

“…In addition, the output torque capability is gradually reduced as the motor speed extends beyond its rated speed [11][12][13][14][15][16]. To solve the problem, a dc-bus boost converter has been used [4,17]. The dc-bus voltage is increased to provide the required three-phase sinusoidal waveforms and then maintain the output torque as a constant.…”
This study proposes a new control method for a dual-motor drive system to share its output torque and extend its operating speed range. When the drive system is operated below the rated speed, the dual motors are operated in parallel to share the total output torque. By using the proposed parallel dual-motor, the efficiency of the whole drive system can be effectively increased. On the other hand, when the drive system is operated beyond the rated speed, one motor is operated at a standstill and its stator inductances are used as three-phase boost inductances. In addition, an interleave control algorithm is used for the boost converter to reduce the input current ripples. The other motor is used as a driving motor fed by the boost converter. As a result, an extended speed, reaching twice the rated speed range with a near constant torque, is obtained. Several experimental results are included to evaluate the theoretical analysis. This study proposes a new control method for the dual-motor drive system, which can be applied to the electric drive systems in the industrial applications.

“…The three-phase converter requires extra cost and space. As a result, the method may not be suitably applied in electrical propulsion systems and vehicles because of their limited space [14]- [15].…”
