To support this transition, a holistic real-time simulation and testing infrastructure is beneficial. We propose realization of such infrastructure based on virtual interconnection of geographically dispersed laboratories. One of the main challenges associated with realization of this concept is compensating the effect of communication network and ensuring stability of Geographically Distributed Real-Time Simulation (GD-RTS). In this work we propose a co-simulation Interface Algorithm (IA) based on wave transformation (WT), a method widely utilized in the field of bilateral teleoperation. WT-based co-simulation IA is applied for GD-RTS of HVdc link with a partitioning point at a dc cable. While co-simulation IA based on Ideal Transformer Model (ITM) is not stable, WT-based co-simulation IA ensures simulation stability for large values of time delay.","PeriodicalId":370319,"journal":{"name":"IECON 2018 - 44th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society","volume":"296 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116593550","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}

First of all, the control principle of TDTC and the reason of large flux and torque ripple were analyzed. Secondly, due to the fact that the parameters setting the controllers are complex and the control effect is not ideal in the SVM-DTC and the complex strategy with large computation in the model predictive torque control (MPTC) and DB-MPTC, the decoupling control of the stator flux and the torque was realized based on the stator flux coordinate, which combined the deadbeat theory to calculate the voltage vector and simply realize the decoupling control. Finally, the simulation results show that the strategy has the advantages of simple strategy and low computation while can effectively eliminate the torque ripple.","PeriodicalId":370319,"journal":{"name":"IECON 2018 - 44th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117101277","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}

If an inverter with inductor filter operates in weak grid condition, voltage measurement error may exist due to the voltage sensor delay and the voltage drop on grid impedance. This can further lead to errors in the phase lock loop (PLL) and even system instability. In this paper, we analyze the voltage measurement error in weak grid condition in detail. All the essential elements in the measurement chain are considered. Analysis shows large DC offset and harmonic components may exist in the sampled voltage. To improve the PLL performance in weak grid condition, a PLL with extra DC offset and 2nd order harmonic rejection capability is presented. Further, the inverter current controller is designed considering grid impedance and grid harmonics. Experiments are performed to verify the presented method.","PeriodicalId":370319,"journal":{"name":"IECON 2018 - 44th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129514695","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}

Second, an extended sliding mode observer combined with the HF method is proposed to get over the knowledge of machine parameters (inductances, inertia, frictions, …)and to improve the estimation error in transient modes, which are the drawbacks of existing tracking algorithms (phase-locked loop (PLLs), mechanical system observers, inverse of tangent).

Some nonlinear transformer models can be found in the literature. However, in these models, the effects of hysteresis and saturation in the core and windings are modeled using lookup table blocks. A lookup table, by definition, uses an array of data to map input values to output values, approximating a mathematical function. As the data array is static, the model is valid just for one defined transformer. The proposed model is dynamic and parameterized. It can be used in any marine system regardless the power level. To analyze the dynamic and/or steady state behavior of the proposed dry-type transformer, it has been evaluated in simulation using Matlab/Simulink.","PeriodicalId":370319,"journal":{"name":"IECON 2018 - 44th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129913302","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 harmonic model is used during optimization, which represents current profile, radial force factor and torque factor in Fourier series. Multi-physics model is built based on harmonic model, in which the three criteria are linear functions of harmonic amplitude contained in phase currents. A collaborative optimization is proposed to obtain current profile considering all three criteria. Weight coefficients are assigned to three criteria to guide trade-off during optimization. Current profiling is implemented under four modes, which put emphasis on different criteria. The torque ripple, radial force and RMS current under four modes are compared through simulation and experiments. It is demonstrated that the three criteria are effectively adjusted through regulating weight coefficients, the proposed method gives optimal current profiles with designated compromise between multiple performance criteria and avoids some criteria being severely deteriorated while others are optimized.","PeriodicalId":370319,"journal":{"name":"IECON 2018 - 44th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129144608","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}
