A method for direct control of torque and axial force of a linear rotary switched reluctance motor

This invention discloses a direct control method for torque and axial force of a linear rotary switched reluctance motor. First, the sector containing the flux linkage vector is determined through calculation. Based on the flux linkage hysteresis signal and the torque hysteresis signal, the voltage vector required for control is determined. Then, the axial force is controlled within the control range of (-15°, 15°) where the rotor position is selected. The corresponding axial force voltage vector is selected based on the axial force hysteresis signal. Finally, the operating mode of each power converter switch is determined based on the signs of all voltage vectors. This invention significantly reduces torque and axial force pulsation by directly controlling the motor's torque and axial force, resulting in a faster system response. Operating modes for the torque winding and axial force winding are established separately for torque and axial force, respectively, leading to more reasonable vector selection. Furthermore, no model calculation is performed during the control process, so the control accuracy does not depend on the analytical model, improving the system response speed and simplifying the control strategy.

The working principle of the vacuum energy direct-current reluctance motor is as follows: a single-side pole shoe is arranged on a stator main pole, so that the magnetic field direction of the stator main pole is twisted along the direction of the single-side pole shoe; an armature winding of the rotor is an excitation winding, and the direction of a generated rotor magnetic field points to the end point of a single-side pole shoe of the stator, so that a magnetic field formed between air gaps of the stator and the rotor is a twisted magnetic field, and a magnetic circuit of the magnetic field between main poles of the stator is lengthened; under the action of an air gap twisting magnetic field, the surface of a rotor armature iron core is subjected to torsion pointing to a stator main pole according to the principle that a magnetic circuit is shortest to drive a rotor to rotate and do work. When the rotor rotates, the armature winding does not cut a magnetic field and does not generate induced electromotive force, so that the current of the armature winding is short-circuit current. And because the electric power consumed by the short-circuit current is very small, and the magnetic field torque force borne by the rotor is in direct proportion to the square of the current, relatively large mechanical torque and power can be formed, so that the vacuum energy is converted into mechanical energy.
