PMSM | PartQuest™ Explore

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (PMSM) and PWM Drive circuit, with mechanical load. The drive includes a D-Q control algorithm, and uses space-vector modulation (SVM) to generate the digital PWM signals to the switches of the bridge.The waveform plot in the upper left shows the drive command (light blue waveform), with values 0 to 1, where 1 is commanding the maximum quadrature current of 10 A. The motor's response is the output shaft angle in radians (orange waveform), and shows that increasing torque command results in greater rotational displacement against the load spring. The waveform plot in the upper right shows the actual motor torque (green waveform) and the A-phase current (dark blue waveform).In a companion version of this design, "PMSM Motor And Ideal Drive", Clarke and Park Transform models are used with a continuous ideal voltage drive.This shows the ability to develop motor control and drives at the abstract level and at the circuit level.In yet another version of this design example, the ideal switches will be replaced with actual power MOSFET device models. This can help in bridge component sizing and performance specification.

Description

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (PMSM) and PWM Drive circuit, with mechanical load. The drive includes a D-Q control algorithm, and uses space-vector modulation (SVM) to generate the digital PWM signals to drive the Power MOSFET switches of the inverter.There are two other versions of this design. The first, "PMSM Motor And Ideal Drive", uses continuous Clarke and Park Transform models and an ideal voltage drive to represent the main features of the field-oriented control system., Another version, "PMSM Motor and PWM Drive", it similar to this version but uses ideal switches.This version is the most detailed and therefore simulated the most slowly. It is well suited for understanding the performance of the Power MOSFETs in the context of the system, In the waveform plot on the right, the actual motor shaft angle (orange waveform) and the A-phase current (dark blue waveform) are shown. These are very similar to the results for the other two versions of the design. But the waveform plot on the left provides insight into the performance of the C-phase inverter pull-up switch. The MOSFET current Ids (green waveform), and the average power dissipated in the device (red waveform) are shown. This design can be used to size specific parts in the drive electronics, by comparing the operating conditions to which they are exposed, relative to their rated operational limits.

Description

This Electric Power Steering (EPS) System design includes a MotorSolve generated Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (PMSM) model, as well as a continuous D-Q controller and drive circuit. The mechanical load model includes static and kinetic friction, a steering force that varies with rack displacement, as well as various mass, inertia, damping and spring/stiffness elements of the steering system. The steering torque, applied by the vehicle's driver, is assisted by torque from the motor scaled by the gear ratio. For the control, a non-linear gain profile is specified in the "torque_assist_table" function, and a lead-lag compensator is used to improve system stability.

Note that this is a "tunable" design. Many of these system parameters can be changed by the user. Then a new simulation can be run and the updated results can be observed in the waveform viewers.

In a companion versions of this design, "EPS System with Ideal PMSM and Drive", an ideal PMSM model which does not include cogging torque, saturation and torque ripple behavior that is included in the MotorSolve generated model herein, So this design shows the significant (and realistic) effect of that behavior in this power steering application.

In another companion design, "EPS System with MotorSolve Generated PMSM Model and DQ/SVM Drive", both the MotorSolve motor model and a sampled-data D-Q control algorithm with space-vector modulation are included. This shows the ability to develop motor controls and drives at the abstract level as well as at the circuit level.
