    摘要: A method for driving a neutral point-clamped multi-level voltage source inverter supplying a synchronous motor is provided. A DC current is received at a neutral point-clamped multi-level voltage source inverter. The inverter has first, second, and third output nodes. The inverter also has a plurality of switches. A desired speed of a synchronous motor connected to the inverter by the first second and third nodes is received by the inverter. The synchronous motor has a rotor and the speed of the motor is defined by the rotational rate of the rotor. A position of the rotor is sensed, current flowing to the motor out of at least two of the first, second, and third output nodes is sensed, and predetermined switches are automatically activated by the inverter responsive to the sensed rotor position, the sensed current, and the desired speed.

    摘要: A method and system for an engine starter/generator is provided. The starter/generator system includes a three phase squirrel cage induction machine, a three phase inverter/converter electrically coupled to the three phase squirrel cage induction machine. The starter/generator system also includes a bidirectional DC-DC converter electrically coupled to the three phase inverter/converter, and a digital control board configured to sensorlessly determine a rotor angle from a plurality of phase currents to the induction machine during a start mode. During the start mode, logic in the digital control board configures the starter/generator system into a combination of an induction motor, a three phase DC-AC inverter, and a DC-DC boost converter, and during a generate mode, the logic in the digital control board configures the starter/generator system into a combination of an induction generator, a three phase AC-DC converter, and a DC-DC buck converter.

    摘要: A high power density reluctance motor which is adapted to be supplied with unidirectional power from a converter has a multiphase stator with concentrated full pitch windings and multiple poles. The rotor has segments which constitute flux guides which serve to bend the flux produced by current flowing in a coil winding in a slot of the stator around the slot and back toward the periphery of the rotor, providing maximum inductance when a flux guide of the rotor is aligned with each such slot. Minimum inductance occurs when the flux guides are out of alignment with the slot conducting current and aligned with an adjacent slot, with a substantially linear change in inductance occuring with rotor displacment. The full pitch coils in each phase of the stator and the segmented rotor construction ensures that the entire air gap surface remains active, allowing greater torque to be produced than in a conventional switched reluctance motor and allowing the materials in the motor to work more efficiently under relatively mild electromagnetic stress. The motor can have few as two phases, with a two phase motor being drivable by a converter which has only two transistors switched to provide unidirectional current pulses to the two phases of the motor at the proper times to achieve motoring operation.
