Issues of practical concern include the minimization of voltage input slew rate. Robustness aspects include the accommodation of model inaccuracy and the attenuation of disturbances effects. These control design properties complement and enable successful utilization of the structural advantages of SRM drives. The paper also addresses questions of stability and comparisons with existing position control strategies and feedback linearization based design.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":244042,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1995 International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems.

The IGBT has been considered as an efficient controllable switch which combines the advantages of both MOS and bipolar technologies.

The paper presents a detailed study of such behaviour of the IGBT as relevant to actual application in typical switching power converters and discusses actual methods of ensuring safe operation of the IGBT by implementing these requirements into circuit design.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":244042,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1995 International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems.

The real time control module accurately analyzes the motor position control. An experiment curriculum is designed for application to a basic automatic control course. The goal of such an educational tool is to very effectively fill the gap between textbooks which work on the theoretical manipulation, and physical systems which work on the running performance. Essential features of an educational automatic control program in this course are developed and the experimental content of an undergraduate engineering course in control system analysis and design are greatly enhanced.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":244042,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1995 International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems.

The motor is of pancake type with coil redundancy and the step angle is 0.5/spl deg/. It is designed to deliver a constant holding torque of 1 Nm against a varying DC supply voltage of 28 to 42 V and in an operating temperature range from -10 to +60/spl deg/ C. The authors introduce a phenomenon named as \"torque saturation\" achievable in a hybrid stepper motor by properly choosing the operating point of the rotor permanent magnet and the stator winding configuration. Apart from the computer aided design procedure, relevant details regarding fabrication and testing are also provided. The test results of the developed motor match fairly well with the computed values and confirm the high performance of the developed hybrid stepper motor.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":244042,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1995 International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems.

These oscillations produce noise and may damage the system. The results from simulation have shown that the oscillations are due to the asymmetry in triggering, resulting in a large rate of change of motor current. These oscillations are more pronounced with a 6-pulse 120/spl deg/ width triggering scheme than according to a 12-pulse concept. The experimental data are verified with the simulation results giving quantitative data for effective understanding of this phenomena. Two control strategies are suggested for damping of oscillations in such digital drive systems.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":244042,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1995 International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems.
