    摘要: The present invention relates to an electrical drive system for or in a motor-vehicle, having at least one multi-phase electric machine, which has a double rotor, wherein the double rotor is made from flux-guiding material made of solid material, with a three-stage or multi-stage inverter circuit for driving the electric machine, which has: a controllable three-stage or multi-stage inverter coupled to the electric machine on the output side, which is designed to supply the electric machine with an AC voltage, and an operating mode setting device, which is designed to operate the inverter as a function of at least one parameter influencing the overall efficiency of the electrical drive system, selectively in a three-stage or multi-stage operation or in a two-stage operation.

    摘要: A method for controlling operation of a permanent-magnet synchronous motor includes: during operation of the permanent-magnet synchronous motor, receiving, by the permanent-magnet synchronous motor, a shutdown signal from an external device; uninterruptedly outputting, by a microcontroller unit (MCU), a deceleration pulse to an inverter, instead of directly blocking a PWM pulse to the inverter, and constantly monitoring a control signal sent by the external device; during a deceleration process, when the MCU receives a new startup signal and a real-time speed Vi of the permanent-magnet synchronous motor is greater than or equal to a reference speed Vref, controlling the permanent-magnet synchronous motor to rotate at a parameter approaching to a target torque T or a target speed V corresponding to the new startup signal; and blocking, by the MCU, the PWM pulse when the real-time speed Vi of the permanent-magnet synchronous motor is lower than the reference speed Vref.

    摘要: A rotary machine control device includes: a flux estimator that estimates a rotary machine flux; a command amplitude specifier that generates a command amplitude that is an amplitude of a command flux, by executing feedback control using a product of an estimated flux or an estimated magnet flux and a detected current; a command flux specifier that generates the command flux using the command amplitude; and a switcher that controls switching from a current synchronous operation to a flux control operation. When the switcher controls switching to the flux control operation, the flux estimator gives, to the feedback control, an amplitude of the estimated flux estimated before switching to the flux control operation, as an initial value of the command amplitude immediately after switching to the flux control operation.

    摘要: For improving Maximum Torque per Amps (MTPA) control, a method generates an offline MTPA curve based on an autotune test for a motor, which is used as offline MTPA control in order to run a motor at a high efficiency operation point. Another online method generates a search zone for the MTPA curve for a given torque point. The search zone includes an upper D-axis reference current and a lower D-axis reference current for the given torque point. The method iteratively modifies a D-axis reference current between the upper D-axis reference current and the lower D-axis reference current of the search zone. The method modifies a Q-axis reference current to output the given torque. The method updates a corresponding current pair of the given torque point to the modified D-axis reference current and the modified Q-axis reference current with a lowest current amplitude to improve MTPA control of the motor.

    摘要: Technical solutions are described for power management in permanent magnet synchronous machines. An example system includes a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), and a motor control system that limits supply current and regenerative current of the PMSM. The limiting includes receiving a torque command and generating a corresponding current command for generating an amount of torque based on the torque command. Further, the limiting includes determining an estimated battery current that is drawn corresponding to the current command. Further, in response to the estimated battery current exceeding a threshold, a modified torque command is generated, and a modified current command corresponding to the modified torque command is also generated. The modified current command is used to cause the PMSM to generate the amount of torque.
