Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of motor technology, and in particular relates to a rapid calculation method for the frequency conversion power supply loss of a built-in permanent magnet synchronous motor based on the equivalent circuits of quadrature axis and direct axis. Background Technology
[0002] Built-in permanent magnet synchronous motors have a wide operating range and are typically powered by pulse width modulation (PWM) voltage. PWM voltage contains numerous high-frequency harmonics, which generate significant losses during motor operation. Calculating the losses introduced by PWM harmonic voltage helps in optimizing motor efficiency during the initial design phase.
[0003] In the existing technology, accurately calculating PWM harmonic losses requires finite element simulation of the motor with extremely small step sizes, which takes a lot of time and reduces the efficiency of the motor design process.
[0004] Therefore, considering that harmonic magnetic fields have a relatively small impact on the saturation of the motor's magnetic circuit, the commonly used method for calculating frequency conversion losses is the small-signal method. First, the fundamental sinusoidal current is used as the excitation to solve for the incremental permeability of the motor's magnetic circuit in each region. Then, the PWM harmonic voltage is treated as a small signal, and the response of each frequency harmonic in the magnetic circuit is calculated, and the losses are further calculated. Finally, the losses calculated at each harmonic frequency are superimposed to obtain the total loss introduced by the PWM harmonics, which is then added to the loss under the fundamental power supply to obtain the motor's loss under frequency conversion power supply. However, this method requires multiple permeability freezes and still takes considerable time. Summary of the Invention
