It has a high pole number (16) and a two-phase winding. The disk-type design has two stators and each stator carries only one phase winding. Two mathematical models are introduced, one linear model which succeeds in predicting the behaviour of the machine when the currents are relatively low, and another which accounts for the saturation in the stator iron at high current levels. The machine is highly discrete in structure, having only one slot per pole in each stator. The models take this into account. Laboratory test results are presented which demonstrate that the machine is capable of twice the acceleration claimed by the commercial manufacturer of a similarly rated high-performance servo motor.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":110710,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the 1992 IEEE Industry Applications Society Annual Meeting","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126358003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent work has addressed the adverse effect that constant power electronic ballasts can have on demand curtailments during utility-controlled voltage reductions. The author builds on this previous work and explores a mechanism by which these constant power electronic ballasts tend to degrade utility voltage stability. Experimental findings comparing the electrical characteristics of magnetic and electronic ballasts are presented. Load models representing fluorescent lighting loads are developed on the basis of these findings. Conclusions are drawn concerning the potential for electronic ballasts to erode operational safety margins used to avoid voltage instability.

The friction model is used for feedforward decoupling of friction-induced torque. The neural network also explicitly incorporates inertia compensation and linear feedback control. Another contribution is a demonstration of the trajectory dependence of static friction compensation with a discrete time controller. The authors include both the theoretical formulation and practical implementation results for the control of a commercial DC motor having a significant amount of static friction.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":110710,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the 1992 IEEE Industry Applications Society Annual Meeting","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127933010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A superposed control circuit generates the reference values of the rotor current and the field-oriented stator voltage vector. The necessary signals for the generation of these reference values are calculated using a current model which is fed by the reference values of the currents. Due to the utilization of the load angle signal calculated in this way, the torque component of the stator current is strongly coupled with the flux, which results in an operation range where, under normal excitation, the machine is not able to work stably at the desired operation point. This instability is independent of the parameter tuning and the orientation correctness. The required decoupling is realized by feeding back of the actual flux signal to the control unit, and the unstable operation range will be eliminated.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":110710,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the 1992 IEEE Industry Applications Society Annual Meeting","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131135391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
