Modeling and Control of Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Generators Under Open-Switch Converter Faults

摘要

The mathematical modeling of open-switch faults in two-level machine-side converters and the fault-tolerant current control of isotropic permanent-magnet synchronous generators are discussed in this paper. The proposed converter model is generic for any open-switch fault and independent of the operation mode of the electrical machine. The proposed fault-tolerant current control system gives improved control performance and reduced torque ripple under open-switch faults by modifying the antiwindup strategy, adapting the space-vector modulation scheme, and by injecting additional reference currents. The theoretical derivations of model and control are validated by comparative simulation and measurement results.
