A Review about Flux-Weakening Operating Limits and Control Techniques for Synchronous Motor Drives

This paper deals with motor design aspects and control strategies for the flux-weakening (FW) operation of synchronous motors. The theory of FW is described by taking into account different control schemes. The advantages and drawbacks of each one are discussed, as well. Moreover, some motor design...

description This paper deals with motor design aspects and control strategies for the flux-weakening (FW) operation of synchronous motors. The theory of FW is described by taking into account different control schemes. The advantages and drawbacks of each one are discussed, as well. Moreover, some motor design considerations for achieving an effective FW operation are illustrated for permanent magnet (PM), wound rotor (WR) and reluctance (REL) synchronous machines, using the per unit approach. The distinguishing characteristic of this review provides two-fold attention on both machine design and control strategies obtained by several collaborations with industrial and commercial companies.
