Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of motor testing technology, and specifically relates to a method for separating iron loss and mechanical loss in a variable frequency start permanent magnet synchronous motor. Background Technology

[0002] Loss measurement in variable frequency starter permanent magnet synchronous motors is a challenging aspect of the industry, especially the separation of iron losses from mechanical losses, which is a hot research topic. The ability to separate these losses directly impacts the optimization of the motor's electromagnetic design.

[0003] Permanent magnet synchronous motors, which can only be started by frequency converter control, cannot use the constant speed and voltage reduction method of traditional asynchronous motors to separate iron loss and mechanical loss because the rotor has its own permanent magnet field.

[0004] When a single permanent magnet synchronous motor is controlled using a power supply with separately adjustable voltage and frequency in variable frequency starting mode, the motor may lose synchronism and the rotor may seize up. If a frequency converter with a permanent magnet control program is used for control, the motor terminal voltage cannot be arbitrarily adjusted. This means that if the motor starting problem cannot be solved, the no-load characteristic test method for self-starting permanent magnet synchronous motors specified in GB / T 22669-2008 is not applicable to variable frequency starting permanent magnet synchronous motors.

[0005] IEEE 1814-2014 describes a dummy rotor method that can separate iron losses from mechanical losses in permanent magnet synchronous motors. This involves fabricating a non-magnetic rotor, assembling it into a complete unit, and then using a drive and torque sensor to measure the input mechanical power to obtain the mechanical losses. However, this method has the following drawbacks:

[0006] 1. The production of dummy rotors increases costs; 2. This method is difficult to implement for finished motors; 3. This method has poor engineering applicability. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the above problems, this invention provides a method for separating iron losses and mechanical losses in a variable frequency start permanent magnet synchronous motor. This method can separate iron losses and mechanical losses in a variable frequency start permanent magnet synchronous motor without the need to fabricate a dummy rotor. It features relatively low cost, can be directly applied to finished motor testing, and is easy to implement in engineering.

[0011] S3. Measure the operating parameters of the permanent magnet synchronous motor;

[0012] S4. The iron loss and mechanical loss of the motor are obtained by using the no-load characteristic test method of permanent magnet synchronous motor.

[0013] Furthermore, the rotor inertia is increased by setting an inertia fixture on the rotor of the permanent magnet synchronous motor under test; the inertia fixture is a rotating component symmetrical about the central axis.

[0014] Furthermore, the inertia fixture includes a coupling, through which the rotor of the permanent magnet synchronous motor is connected to the rotor of another external motor.

[0015] Furthermore, before performing step S2, a dynamic balance test is performed on the permanent magnet synchronous motor under test and the inertia fixture.

[0016] Furthermore, in step S3, the operating parameters include motor voltage, current, power, resistance, and temperature.

[0023] S42. Perform data processing;

[0024] P0' = P0 - P Cu0 =P Fe +P fw +P s0 (1)

[0025] P Cu0 =1.5×I 2 R

[0045] Example 1

[0046] This embodiment provides a method for separating iron loss and mechanical loss in a variable frequency start permanent magnet synchronous motor, including the following steps:

[0047] S1. Set an inertia fixture on the rotor of the permanent magnet synchronous motor under test to increase the rotor's rotational inertia in order to solve the problem of loss of synchronism when the permanent magnet motor is controlled by a variable frequency power supply; the inertia fixture is a rotating part symmetrical about the central axis; before proceeding to step S2, perform a dynamic balance test on the permanent magnet synchronous motor under test and the inertia fixture.

[0048] In a preferred embodiment, the inertia fixture includes a coupling through which the rotor of the permanent magnet synchronous motor is connected to the rotor of another external motor. The function of this other external motor is not conventional driving, but rather to increase the rotor's rotational inertia while ensuring good dynamic balance.

[0049] S2. Start the permanent magnet synchronous motor by giving voltage and frequency respectively; use a frequency converter to control the operation of the motor under test through its V / F separation control mode.

[0050] S3. Measure the operating parameters of the permanent magnet synchronous motor; the operating parameters include motor voltage, current, power, resistance, temperature and other parameters.

[0051] S4. The iron loss and mechanical loss of the motor are obtained by using the no-load characteristic test method of permanent magnet synchronous motor.

[0052] S41. Conduct no-load characteristic tests;

[0053] S42. Perform data processing;

[0054] P0' = P0 - P Cu0 =P Fe +P fw +P s0 (1)

[0055] P Cu0 =1.5×I 2 R

[0056]

[0057] Where P0' is the sum of iron loss and mechanical loss; P0 is the no-load input power; P Cu0 For no-load copper loss; P Fe Iron loss; P fw For mechanical losses; P s0 R represents the stray load loss under no-load conditions; I represents the line current; R represents the DC resistance; R1 and θ1 represent the stator winding resistance and temperature during the no-load characteristic test, respectively; R0 and θ0 represent the initial stator resistance and corresponding temperature in the cold state, respectively.

[0058] S43. For example Figure 1 As shown, curve fitting is performed on the no-load current I0, P0', and no-load voltage U0, i.e., I0 = f(U0) and P0' = f(U0); the rated voltage U is obtained from the fitted curve.

[0065]

[0066] Because the speed of a permanent magnet synchronous motor remains constant without losing steps, therefore P fw It is constant under any voltage, and because the current is small at the minimum current point, its corresponding stray loss can be almost ignored, i.e., P s02 =0; obtain mechanical loss P fw :

[0067]

[0068] It is understandable that, in addition to the methods mentioned above, a frequency converter with permanent magnet vector control function can also be used. By controlling the change of the excitation current provided by the frequency converter to the motor under test, the terminal voltage of the motor under test can be increased or decreased to achieve the no-load characteristic test.

[0069] Compared with the prior art, the method of this embodiment solves the problem of V / F separation starting control of permanent magnet synchronous motors without starting windings, enabling variable frequency starting permanent magnet synchronous motors to achieve voltage rise and fall control at a certain fixed frequency; it eliminates the need to manufacture dummy rotors, resulting in lower costs, higher efficiency and convenience, and can be directly applied to finished motor testing, making it more suitable for engineering applications.
