Permanent Magnet Flux Online Estimation Based on Zero-Voltage Vector Injection Method

摘要

In this paper, a simple and accurate method is proposed for online estimation of the rotor permanent magnet (PM) flux linkage for surface mounted PM synchronous machines. By advantageously utilizing an injected zero-voltage vector, the effects of inductance in estimating the PM flux linkage is eliminated. The inverter voltage error and phase resistive voltage drop effects are minimized by repeating the test at different speeds. Therefore, as a result, only the voltage commands are needed for PM flux linkage estimation, resulting in great simplicity. Filtering the current ripple caused by the zero-voltage vector injection is not necessary. The proposed method can be used with sensored or sensorless field-oriented control strategies. The experimental results have shown a good accuracy of the proposed new method.
