Dynamic overmodulation strategy based on torque and flux optimal tracking for DTC‐SVM of surface‐mounted PMSM drives
Abstract
Abstract Direct torque control with space vector modulation has been increasingly attracting emphasis for permanent‐magnet synchronous machine control, benefiting from a high dynamic response and low torque ripple. However, the rapid tracking performance of torque and stator flux linkage is gradually deteriorating as the machine enters the overmodulation region because of the output‐voltage limitation of the inverter. Therefore, to enhance the system tracking performance in the overmodulation region, an innovative overmodulation method based on torque and flux optimal tracking is proposed. In contrast to the conventional overmodulation method where only one of the torque and stator flux linkage tracking is considered, the proposed strategy first constructs the weightless cost function to achieve a trade‐off control between the torque and stator flux linkage. Then, by using an equivalent geometric path to intuitively express the weightless cost function, the minimum cost function can be easily solved and the optimal output voltage vector can be determined correspondingly, to achieve the fast‐tracking of both the torque and stator flux linkage. Additionally, the voltage utilization of different overmodulation schemes is also analysed. Finally, the experimental results demonstrate the efficiency and practicality of the proposed strategy.
