Abstract: A control system for an electric motor for a fluid moving apparatus includes a drive circuit and a processor. The drive circuit regulates power supplied to the motor to generate fluid flow. The processor is coupled to the drive circuit and controls the drive circuit to operate the motor at a first speed and torque, and at a second speed and torque, receive a first flow corresponding to the first speed and torque, determine a second flow based on a ratio of the first flow to the first speed, and corresponding to the second speed and torque. The processor is configured to define an algorithm based on the first and second speed, torque, and flow, compute a set point for a demanded flow using the algorithm, and control the drive circuit based on the set point to supply power to the motor and generate the flow.

Abstract: A control system is provided for an electric motor configured to drive a fluid moving apparatus to generate a fluid-flow. The control system includes a drive circuit configured to regulate power supplied to a stator of the motor to turn a rotor and generate the fluid-flow, and a processor that computes a value proportional to at least one of a system resistance or a static pressure for the fluid moving apparatus based on a fixed set point for a first control parameter and a feedback parameter. The processor receives a fluid-flow rate demand and computes an operating set point for a second control parameter based on the fluid-flow rate demand and the value proportional to the system resistance or the static pressure. The processor controls the drive circuit based on the operating set point to supply power to the motor and operate the fluid moving apparatus to generate the fluid-flow.

Abstract: An electric motor for a pump is provided. The electric motor includes a motor controller configured to convert alternating current (AC) power supplied to a variable frequency variable voltage power for driving the electric motor at a motor output according to a commanded motor output. The motor controller includes an inverter configured to generate the variable frequency variable voltage power according to the commanded motor output and a microcontroller coupled to the inverter. The microcontroller is configured to control the inverter to operate at a first switching frequency when the motor output is less than a threshold motor output and control the inverter to operate at a second switching frequency when the motor output is greater than the threshold motor output, wherein the second switching frequency is less than the first switching frequency.
