| Summary: | Abstract We present a sensorless efficiency test system with energy recovery for a high-speed permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). In the system, two identical high-speed PMSMs are used as the motor under test (MUT) and the load machine (LM), respectively. A new sensorless vector control (VC) method based on a hypothetical reference frame is presented to control both the MUT and the LM. Also, a regenerating unit is used to implement energy circulation to save energy. Experiments were carried out on a prototype, with a digital controller based on the TMS320F28335, to verify the adequacy of the sensorless VC method. As a result, the efficiency test system achieves the load test at the speed of 21000 r/min without any reduction equipment. During the test, the energy regenerated by the LM could be fed back to the MUT by the regenerating unit, and 81.31% electrical power was saved. In addition, with the proposed sensorless VC method, both the MUT and the LM can work at i d = 0 without a position sensor. |
