In the last few years several solutions belonging to this category have been proposed. They have different configurations and distinct adaptation mechanisms, properly chosen in each case. A new, general adaptation mechanism is presented in the paper. It is derived according to Popov hyperstability theory and is valid for any adaptive system belonging to this category, no matter what its configuration is. A general demonstration for the stability of these adaptive systems is given, using the Lyapunov stability theorem. This unitary approach allows an easier comparison and classification of different particular solutions. The paper focuses on two of the most used configurations. In the first solution the reference model is the motor and the adaptive one is a linear state observer, which, in particular, is an extended Luenberger observer (ELO). In the second solution, both models are rotor flux (or other quantities) estimators and this scheme is usually known as a model reference adaptive system (MRAS). The performance of these two schemes is analyzed starting from their configuration and then compared by simulations and experimental results.","PeriodicalId":177291,"journal":{"name":"IAS '96.

A mains side IGBT-inverter manages both energy flow directions with unique power factor and sinusoidal currents.

Field oriented control of the induction machine and a new software current controller ensure low torque ripple and excellent dynamic behaviour of the shaft torque. The pendulum dynamometer design of the brakes provides robust and precise torque measurement. A built in torque calculator completes the transient torque monitoring.

In previous work a noncirculating type of bearing current caused by parasitic capacitive coupling from stator windings to the rotor was identified. In this paper a new circulating inductive type of bearing current is reported. A theory for the existence of this new type of bearing currents in inverter-motor drives is proposed. It identifies the fact that unbalanced currents flow in the two coil sides of a motor winding due to distribution of capacitive coupling currents. The current unbalance produces a high frequency magnetic flux surrounding the motor shaft and thus causes a bearing current to circulate in the conductive loop formed by the stator case, rotor shaft and end bearings. The amplitude of the circulating bearing current depends on the common mode component of capacitive coupling currents. The analysis is verified by experimental measurement or bearing currents. The findings also provide insight to determining solutions for attenuating these destructive bearing currents.","PeriodicalId":177291,"journal":{"name":"IAS '96.

The constraint in obtaining the optimal angle is constant output torque for given operating speed. The efficiency of the motor can be improved by the proposed method especially in the light load condition. For SynRM, torque dynamics can be maintained even with controlling the flux level because the generated torque is directly proportional to the stator current. This is not the case of induction motor since the rotor flux linkage is built up with the rotor time constant. In the proposed algorithm simple iron loss compensation routine is added to compensate the torque nonlinearity due to the iron loss. The proposed algorithm allows the electromagnetic losses in variable speed and torque drives to be reduced while keeping good torque control dynamics. Simulation and experimental results are presented to show the validity of the proposed algorithm.","PeriodicalId":177291,"journal":{"name":"IAS '96.

The paper focuses on the effect of an antialiasing filter and also on the sampling of the fundamental components of the motor current. The antialiasing filter, which suppresses the high frequency component of the motor current, introduces cross coupling effects on the D and Q axis current regulation and limits the bandwidths of the current regulator because of its phase lag. In this paper a novel sampling technique is proposed to sample the fundamental component of the current without the antialiasing filter. It is based on the characteristic of the symmetry pulse width modulation. With this technique, the bandwidth of the current regulator can be extended to the limit given by switching frequency of the inverter and more precise torque regulation is possible.","PeriodicalId":177291,"journal":{"name":"IAS '96.

Normally the power consumption of an AC silent discharge is measured by using a wattmeter on the low voltage side of the input transformer. However, this measurement includes the transformer losses which generally are nonlinear and may account for a significant proportion of the total power loss. Alternatively, the power loss in the silent discharge alone may be calculated by means of results obtained from the oscillograms of the charge versus voltage (q-v trace) method or by sampling the discharge current and high voltage signals. However, the measuring accuracy of these methods is limited and they are not convenient for use in practice, This paper presents a versatile, automated system for power measurement in an AC silent discharge. The system combines high-accuracy A/D data acquisition technology with the q-v trace method. Experimental results and analysis are presented to show the improved accuracy, speed of response and convenience over conventional measuring methods. The method discussed here is applicable to the power measurement in similar discharges, such as AC corona discharges, etc.","PeriodicalId":177291,"journal":{"name":"IAS '96.
