Abstract :
The effects of magnetic saturation are examined, and the compensation of magnetic saturation is proposed for the PM (permanent magnet) motor drives. A speed control system is established based on a DSP, and drive tests were carried out on a prototype IPM (interior permanent magnet) motor. The q-axis inductance of a IPM motor is found to vary depending on the q-axis current because of the magnetic saturation. The terminal voltage exceeds the maximum value in the flux-weakening region and, as a result, the transient responses sometimes become unstable because of saturation of the current regulator. The q-axis inductance is simply modeled as a function of the q-axis current and this compensated value of Lq is used in the control algorithm. The control performances are greatly improved by the compensation of magnetic saturation
