Acionamento de um motor síncrono de ímãs permanentes sem escovas visando aplicação em veículos elétricos

Abstract

This dissertation presents the development of a permanent magnet brushless DC motor drive (PMBLDC) for small electric vehicles applications. A three–phase voltage source inverter (VSI) based on IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor) is used to drive the electric motor. The semiconductor switches are controlled by space vector modulation (SVM). Signals from three Hall effect sensors are used to detect the rotor angular position. Two closed–loops are used to control the PMBLDC motor. The outer loop controls the rotor velocity while the inner loop controls the motor phase currents. Two types of controllers were investigated to synthesize the currents: (i) proportional– integral controller in synchronous reference frame and (ii) proportional–integral controller with multiple rotating synchronous reference frame integrators. Besides the current control loops, the drive system was designed considering the decoupling of the synthesized phase currents and a feed-forward electromotive force waveform compensation. An experimental prototype of 5 kW was built in laboratory. The motor and VSI control algorithms and the algorithm used to detect the rotor position were implemented in a TMS320F28335, digital signal controller. Experimental results are presented, discussed along with the validation of the control strategy.
