Abstract :
This paper describes the design, construction and testing of an integrated Electro-Mechanical Actuator (EMA) using a Permanent Magnet Motor drive by a Matrix Converter. The design of the integrated system has included the motor, the power converter and the thermal integration with the EMA. Practical results from the converter are presented for a range of test conditions.
