| Abstract |
This paper presents a loss-minimizing vector control method for interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM). Conventionally, maximum torque per ampere (MTPA) control, which minimizes copper loss, has been widely used in industry. Iron loss, however, is not considered in MTPA control. In this paper, the loss model, including iron loss and copper loss, is derived to further reduce drive loss. The loss-minimizing vector controller is implemented based on the loss model. The controller generates optimal current vectors according to the operating conditions. The performance and validity of the proposed method are proved by experimental results through comparison with conventional methods. |
