A control system for a vehicle powered by a fuel cell includes a voltage conversion device that communicates with the fuel cell through a voltage bus and a propulsion system that is selectively powered by the fuel cell through the voltage bus and that selectively generates a ripple current in the voltage bus. The voltage conversion device is regulated to selectively generate a counter-ripple current that reduces the ripple current.

A system and method for controlling an IPM synchronous machine in a vehicle that calculates an operating trajectory of the machine on-line. The system defines three operating ranges of the machine based on voltage magnitude, where a first operating range is controlled by a current limit of the machine and second and third operating regions are controlled by a voltage limit of the machine. The system calculates d- and q-axis current reference signals in the reference rotor frame for each of the three regions. The system determines which set of current reference signals will be used to control the machine based on the operating region. The third operating region is used during over-modulation of the machine.

A drive system that is suitable for high bandwidth current control of a three-phase voltage source inverter in the overmodulation region includes a feedback path that has a harmonic decoupling block that subtracts selected harmonic components from signals representative of a corresponding motor phase current signal. The harmonic decoupling block thereby generates corrected feedback signals. The drive system also includes subtractor blocks that subtract the corrected feedback signals from signals representative of open-loop magnetizing reference currents to generate difference signals. Also included is a modulation block that utilizes the difference signals to produce signals to drive a three-phase voltage source inverter in an overmodulated six-step mode.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus are provided for controlling a stand-alone four-leg three-phase inverter. The inverter three-phase output is converted from AC domain elements to corresponding DC domain elements. The DC domain elements are processed into combined regulating and imbalance compensating signals, including over-current limiting. The compensating signals are restored to corresponding AC domain signals, and are processed into control inputs for the inverter, in order to stabilize the inverter output when connected to an unbalanced load. The inverter controller can be implemented entirely in software as a control algorithm.

Methods and apparatus are provided for controlling an inverter with an under-damped L-C filter connected to a load. Samples of the inverter output are processed to generate voltage regulation signals and damping signals. The voltage regulation signals include both regulating and imbalance compensating elements, and are further modified by the damping signals. The modified voltage regulation signals control the switching circuits of the inverter to stabilize the inverter output to the load.

An induction machine includes a rotor having rotor flux and a rotor resistance. The induction machine outputs first and second reference current values. A control system includes a first controller that outputs first and second reference voltage values to the induction machine and that generates an estimated rotor flux magnitude value based on a rotor resistance parameter. A computation circuit receives the first and second reference current values from the induction machine and the first and second voltage reference values from the first controller and calculates an actual rotor flux magnitude. A rotor resistance adjustor that updates the rotor resistance parameter based on the actual and estimated rotor flux magnitudes.
摘要:
A multiple inverter system is powered from a common energy source such as a battery. First and second inverters are coupled to the common energy source and drive corresponding motors. First and second controllers provide pulse width modulated signals, modulated with respect to first and second clock signals, respectively, to the respective first and second inverters. A capacitor coupled between a power bus and a ground bus smoothes power bus ripples caused by simultaneous switching. To reduce the size needed for the capacitor, different modulation schemes, such as center based interleaved, and leading and lagging edge coincident, are used when both motors are in the motoring mode or both motors are in the regeneration mode. However, the same modulation scheme is used when one motor is in the motoring mode and the other motor is in the regeneration mode.

Methods and apparatus are provided for an electric vehicle embodying an axial flux traction motor directly coupled to a wheel thereof. The traction motor comprises a stator having coils for producing a magnetic field, an annular rotor magnetically coupled to the stator and mechanically to an output shaft. Permanent magnets of alternating polarity are mounted on the annular rotor. Magnetic shunts bridge a portion of the stator slots above the coils. The magnets are arranged in groups with group-to-group spacing exceeding magnet-to-magnet spacing. Adjacent edges of the magnets diverge. The method comprises, looking up d- and q-axis currents to provide the requested torque and motor speed for the available DC voltage, combining at least one of the d- and q-axis currents with a field weakening correction term, converting the result from synchronous to stationary frame and operating an inverter therewith to provide current to the coils of the motor.
