| Abstract |
The objective of this paper is to compare two control strategies aimed at optimizing stator current andpower factor in the constant torque operation zone on railway traction applications when interiorpermanent magnet synchronous machines (IPMSM) are used. Both control strategies are the classical“zero d-current”, which is used in most of industrial applications, and the Most Torque per Amp(MTPA) technique, which optimizes the torque with the lowest current.A simulation study has been carried out with different saliency interior permanent magnet syncronousmachines, in order to demonstrate that MTPA control strategy allows stator current and power factoroptimization, specially if high saliency IPMSM are used. Finally, experimental results with a full-scale100kW prototype have been carried out, confirming the study fulfilled in simulation. |
