Book Electrical Machines

Download or read book Electrical Machines written by Dieter Gerling and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-09-17 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electrical Machines and Drives play a vital role in industry with an ever increasing importance. This fact necessitates the understanding of machine and drive principles by engineers of many different disciplines. Therefore, this book is intended to give a comprehensive deduction of these principles. Special attention is given to the precise mathematical deduction of the necessary formulae to calculate machines and drives, and to the discussion of simplifications (if applied) with the associated limits. So the book shows how the different machine topologies can be deduced from general fundamentals, and how they are linked. This book addresses graduate students, researchers and developers of Electrical Machines and Drives, who are interested in getting knowledge about the principles of machine and drive operation and in detecting the mathematical and engineering specialties of the different machine and drive topologies together with their mutual links. The detailed, but compact mathematical deduction, together with a distinct emphasis onto assumptions, simplifications and the associated limits, leads to a clear understanding of Electrical Machine and Drive topologies and characteristics.

Book Design and comparison of two brushless DC drives for an electric propulsion system of solar power unmanned aerial vehicles

Download or read book Design and comparison of two brushless DC drives for an electric propulsion system of solar power unmanned aerial vehicles written by Dong, Rong and published by Universitätsverlag der TU Berlin. This book was released on 2020-08-26 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The electrical propulsion system as the core component of solar-power Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for long duration flight requires high power density and stable drive technology. Brushless DC motors (BLDCM) with high power and torque density and control algorithms suitable for drive system are given preference for the application in UAVs. This dissertation is aimed at designing an improved BLDCM using only 4 interior magnet blocks to realize 8 poles compared to the conventional 8 magnet blocks structure. The performances of both BLDCM designs have been analytically determined and the motor models were verified through finite element software in ANSYS. Design and construction of the demonstrators of BLDCMs with the proposed and the conventional magnet structure have been carried out and a test bench for extensive performance comparison has been set up. Since the proposed magnet structure leads to a particularity of the magnetic circuit, the behavior of absolute and differential synchronous direct and quadrature inductances have been investigated by finite element model analysis and experiments. Efficiency maps were generated and thermal characteristics have been measured to gain a comprehensive understanding of the two motors. To reduce the uncertainty of sensor control for BLDCM, a high speed, good linearity analog isolation circuit to measure the voltages of 270 V DC voltage to realize sensorless control strategy has been designed. The circuit combines a PI controller with fast operational amplifiers with a built-in linearizing feedback photodiode loop of a linear optocoupler. A 3D stator model was built to analyse the mechanical resonance frequencies and possible excitation by the electromagnetic radial force leading to vibration and noise for the proposed and conventional rotor structure. Analytical calculation of natural mode frequencies has also been conducted to compare and validate the accuracy of FEM simulations and impact hammer testing experimental results. Das elektrische Antriebssystem als Kernkomponente von unbemannten Solarflugzeugen (UAVs, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) für Langzeitflüge erfordert eine hohe Leistungsdichte und robuste Antriebstechnik. Bürstenlose Gleichstrommotoren (BLDCM) mit hoher Leistungs- und Drehmomentdichte sowie dafür angepasste Regelalgorithmen werden daher bevorzugt in UAVs eingesetzt. Diese Dissertation zielt darauf ab, einen verbesserten BLDCM mit nur 4 eingebetteten Magnetblöcken zu entwerfen, um 8 Pole zu realisieren im Vergleich zu der herkömmlichen Struktur mit 8 Magnetblöcken. Das Verhalten beider BLDCM-Designs wurde analytisch ermittelt und die Motormodelle mit Hilfe von Finite-Elemente-Software in ANSYS verifiziert. Design und Konstruktion der Prototypen mit der vorgeschlagenen und der herkömmlichen Magnetstruktur wurden durchgeführt und es wurde ein Prüfstand für einen umfassenden Leistungsvergleich aufgebaut. Da die vorgeschlagene Magnetstruktur zu einem Magnetkreis führt, bei dem die entgegengesetzten Pole keine Spiegelsymmetrie aufweisen, wurden die Längs- und Querinduktivität durch Finite-Elemente-Modellanalyse und Experimente absolut und differentiell untersucht. Weiterhin wurden Wirkungsgradkennfelder erstellt und das thermische Verhalten untersucht, um ein umfassendes Verständnis der beiden Motoren zu erhalten. Um das sensorbedingte Ausfallrisiko zu eliminieren, wurde eine schnelle analoge Isolationsschaltung mit hoher Linearität und Stabilität zur Messung der gepulsten Spannungen bei 270V Gleichspannung entwickelt, um eine sensorlose Steuerungsstrategie zu realisieren. Die Schaltung verwendet einen linearen Optokoppler mit integrierter Rückkopplungsfotodiode, sowie einen PI-Regler mit schnellen Operationsverstärkern im Rückkopplungspfad. Ein 3D-Statormodell wurde erstellt, um die mechanischen Resonanzfrequenzen und die mögliche Anregung durch die elektromagnetische Radialkraft zu analysieren, die zu Vibrationen und Geräuschen bei der vorgeschlagenen und herkömmlichen Rotorstruktur führt. Es wurde auch eine analytische Modalanalyse durchgeführt, um die Genauigkeit von FEM-Simulationen und experimentellen Ergebnissen mit dem Impulshammer zu vergleichen und zu validieren.

Book Control and Nonlinear Dynamics on Energy Conversion Systems

Download or read book Control and Nonlinear Dynamics on Energy Conversion Systems written by Herbert Ho-Ching Iu and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-07-01 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ever-increasing need for higher efficiency, smaller size, and lower cost make the analysis, understanding, and design of energy conversion systems extremely important, interesting, and even imperative. One of the most neglected features in the study of such systems is the effect of the inherent nonlinearities on the stability of the system. Due to these nonlinearities, these devices may exhibit undesirable and complex dynamics, which are the focus of many researchers. Even though a lot of research has taken place in this area during the last 20 years, it is still an active research topic for mainstream power engineers. This research has demonstrated that these systems can become unstable with a direct result in increased losses, extra subharmonics, and even uncontrollability/unobservability. The detailed study of these systems can help in the design of smaller, lighter, and less expensive converters that are particularly important in emerging areas of research like electric vehicles, smart grids, renewable energy sources, and others. The aim of this Special Issue is to cover control and nonlinear aspects of instabilities in different energy conversion systems: theoretical, analysis modelling, and practical solutions for such emerging applications. In this Special Issue, we present novel research works in different areas of the control and nonlinear dynamics of energy conversion systems.

Book Linear Electric Machines  Drives  and MAGLEVs Handbook

Download or read book Linear Electric Machines Drives and MAGLEVs Handbook written by Ion Boldea and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-07-31 with total page 737 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linear motion is richly present in various industries, from direct electric propulsion in urban and interurban people movers on wheels or on magnetic “cushions” (MAGLEVs) to indoor transport of goods (conveyors, etc.), through plunger solenoids (to open hotel doors and as electromagnetic power switches), to compressor drives by linear oscillatory permanent magnet (PM) motors, smart phones integrated microphone and loudspeakers, and controlled vehicles’ suspension, etc. Besides the traditional rotary motor drives with mechanical transmissions, which mean friction limitations (weather dependent) in traction (heavy vehicles), more losses, positioning errors (backlash) in the process, and higher maintenance costs to handle them, linear motion in industry by direct electromagnetic forces is free of friction limitations for traction, free of mechanical transmission, and thus more efficient, with less maintenance cost and fewer positioning errors (backlash). This explains why they are used in so many applications already since the dramatic advancement of power electronics and digital control in the last four decades. Modeling, performance, design, control, and testing of linear electric machines (LEMs) show notable differences with respect to rotary electric motor drives, which warrant a dedicated treatment of these aspects. The Second Edition (First Edition: 2013) concentrates on the above technical aspects of various types of LEMs in close relationship with specific applications via numerical examples of modeling, design, control, and testing, with ample representative results from literature, industry and some of the author’s contributions, such as: Technical field and circuit modeling of linear induction motors in flat configurations for low and high speeds (with and without dynamic end effects) and in tubular configurations short travel design, control and testing Linear synchronous motor (LSM) drives in dc-excited, homopolar, reluctance and superconducting excitation configurations for urban and interurban high-speed vehicles propulsion and integrated propulsion and levitation (in MAGLEVs) modeling, design and control with full-scale numerical examples, with emphasis on lower KWh/passenger/Km at high speeds Flat and tubular linear permanent magnet (PM) synchronous motors (L-PMSMs), mainly destined to industrial indoor transport for automation at high efficiency in clean rooms Linear “flux-modulation” motors— new breed, suitable for very low-speed applications due to higher thrust density Plunger solenoids in various applications including new valve PM actuators with millisecond response time Linear resonant PM oscillatory motors design, control and testing mainly destined to compressors for higher efficiency in compact drives Attraction and repulsive force suspension (levitation) systems for MAGLEVs Active and passive guideway MAGLEVs in urban and superhigh-speed interurban transport at lower Kwh per passenger/km (in lighter vehicles without wheels) The numerous numerical design and control examples (with practical specifications) throughout the 23 chapters of the book allow the reader deep and fast access to a practical but thorough unitary (good for comparisons) methodology in designing and controlling LEMs for various applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early seventies, the development of the automobile has been characterized by a steady increase in the deploymnet of onboard electronics systems and software. This trend continues unabated and is driven by rising end-user demands and increasingly stringent environmental requirements. Today, almost every function onboard the modern vehicle is electronically controlled or monitored. The software-based implementation of vehicle functions provides for unparalleled freedoms of concept and design. However, automobile development calls for the accommodation of contrasting prerequisites – such as higher demands on safety and reliability vs. lower cost ceilings, longer product life cycles vs. shorter development times – along with growing proliferation of model variants. Automotive Software Engineering has established its position at the center of these seemingly conflicting opposites. This book provides background basics as well as numerous suggestions, rare insights, and cases in point concerning those processes, methods, and tools that contribute to the surefooted mastery of the use of electronic systems and software in the contemporary automobile.
