    摘要: A method of operating a drive circuit for parallel electric motors is provided. The method includes receiving measurements of stator phase currents in the parallel electric motors. The method includes selecting a target PM motor, from among the parallel electric motors, that generates a largest torque output. The method includes executing a vector control algorithm to generate a complex command voltage vector for the target PM motor. The method includes generating and transmitting a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal based on the complex command voltage vector for controlling an inverter. The method includes operating the inverter according to the PWM signal to supply three-phase alternating current (AC) power to the parallel electric motors.

    摘要: An inverter control device includes an inverter main circuit, a current detector, a voltage detector that detects a DC voltage between DC bus lines, and an inverter control unit that generates PWM signals to perform on/off control of a plurality of semiconductor switching elements respectively with a DC current and a DC voltage. The unit sets a carrier period of PWM signals to be 1/N times a calculation period in which the PWM signals are generated, performs detection of a DC current detected by the current detector in a 1/2 calculation period immediately before a calculation start timing for generating PWM signals, calculates an output voltage vector based on the detected DC current, and reflects PWM signals generated from the output voltage vector in one calculation period from a 1/2 calculation period after the calculation start timing to 3/2 control calculation periods after the same.

    摘要: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to perform torque balance control of co-shafted motors are disclosed. An example method includes calculating a first torque value based on first phase currents of a first motor that is driving a shaft connected to a control surface, and calculating a second torque value based on second phase currents of a second motor that is driving the same shaft. The example method also includes determining a first shared torque value based on the first calculated torque value and a first sharing factor, and determining a second shared torque value based on the second calculated torque value and a second sharing factor. The example method also includes determining a torque error based on the first shared torque value and the second shared torque value, and determining a first torque adjustment associated with the first motor based on the torque error.
