Abstract
Standard low- and medium-power drives are based on the voltage-source
converter topology. There has been less research work on dual topology drives,
based on a current-fed inverter structure. Although energy storage is more efficient
in capacitors than in inductors, due to some inherent advantages of currentsource converter topology, and at the first place, the absence of a dc-link electrolytic
capacitor, a current-source drive system made with a considerably reduced dc link
inductor could be better low-cost solution with improved reliability, lifetime, and
transient response than conventional drive.
INTRODUCTION
OVER the last two decades, the traditional voltage-source inverter
(VSI) topology with a diode rectifier—dc link capacitor—pulsewidthmodulator (PWM)-controlled inverter has become the preferred choice in
ac drives for low-cost variable voltage and frequency power applications
[1]. Although this drive system topology employs a simple diode front-end
rectifier, it has been found to offer a very favorable performance/cost ratio.
The paper is organized as follows: Section II presents a general description of the new
integrated current-fed PMSM drive system solution proposed in this paper. A description
of the developed rectifier charge-mode controller [9]–[11] and inverter starting
technique are included as well; a system analysis such as commutation study and powerfactor optimization are described in Section III; Section IV presents the simulated results
obtained by using circuit simulator SABER and experimental data measured on the
laboratory prototype. The description and the corresponding comments of the starting
and steady-state operations of the drive system are given in this section.
DESCRIPTION OF THE SYSTEM
A. Power Circuit Configuration
The main function of the PWM rectifier is to regulate the level of the dc-link
current and to provide sinusoidal currents at the input of the drive system. A
small LC input filter easily absorbs the high-frequency harmonics injected
into the ac mains by the rectifier switching action. It should be noted that
although dc-link current contains a harmonic component at six times the
inverter frequency, the rectifier controller enables sinusoidal modulation of
the input currents.
The adopted control system configuration is depicted in Fig. 1. It is similar to
standard control scheme for Synchronous machine drives, but it employs only a
speed control loop because current control is already included in the rectifier
charge controller. It should be noted that motor speed sensing is not necessary
because the speed feedback signal can be derived from the inverter
synchronization signals. The complete control system uses only one sensor for the
dc link current. Inverter triggering signals are synchronized to the rotor position by
simple terminal voltage sensing instead of using position detectors. Therefore, an
additional lowering of cost is achieved by implementing a position sensorless drive
system,and, in addition, the machine power factor can be precisely controlled.
B. Charge Control of the Three-Switch PWM Rectifier
The three-phase step-down rectifier operation is based on the fact that the dc link inductor
current is switched between the input phases such that the equivalent area per switching cycle
reconstitutes a sine-wave current on that phase in the lower part of its harmonic spectrum.
Therefore, to sinusoidally shape converter input currents, it is sufficient that they follow a
given set of current references in an open-loop fashion. The best way to do this is to enable the
average value of the input current vectors to track its corresponding sinusoidal reference.
Inasmuch as charge-mode control behaves as an instantaneous large-signal average current
control of switching converters, it is therefore very suitable for average value control of a buck
rectifier.
The adopted modulation scheme is a six-step discontinuous algorithm, which
resembles the natural operation of the threephase buck rectifier, offers minimum
switching action, and is simple to realize. According to this technique, a line cycle
is divided into six sectors, each of 60◦, as shown in Fig. 2.
C. Inverter Starting Scheme
At startup and at low speeds, some type of forced commutation is required to commutate the
inverter to start and accelerate the motor until the machine terminal voltages are sufficiently
large to ensure reliable commutation. The forced current commutation between inverter
thyristors without any additional power circuit components can be accomplished by
periodically interrupting the dc-link current. That is, the dc link current is forced to become
zero prior to each commutation by proper gating of the PWM rectifier, thus providing the
turn-off of outgoing thyristors. When the dc link current drops to zero,commutation of the
thyristor in the inverter bridge is enabled.Natural commutations begin when machine reaches
speed at which induced back EMFs are large enough to ensure safe commutation.
D. Low-Cost Issues
The inspiration to use load-commutated thyristor inverter for driving PMSM comes from the
low-cost requirements of the target applications. Almost all of the applications, such as
Highvoltage ac (HVAC) drives, home appliances, fans, pumps, etc, do not require precise
positioning or speed control, and a loadcommutated PMSM drive could be a strong competitor
[13]. The idea is to use a fully controlled converter at the front end to supply a self-controlled
PMSM enabling minimization of the dc link inductor, a simple starting scheme, and sinusoidal
input currents. The relatively small dc inductance could be embedded into the machine offering
a new low-cost integrated drive solution, which is virtually without any link components.
