| Abstract |
This article presents the result of an inverter switching loss minimization technique based on discontinuous PWM patterns for a salient-pole PMSM with a two-level voltage source inverter for an automotive application. The suggested PWM patterns are evaluated using the resulting electromagnetic torque considering peak-to-peak ripple as well as the DC-current harmonic spectra. The study focuses on high rotational speeds, from 0.6-2.5 times the base speed;base considering both current and voltage limitations. The analysis focuses on electromagnetic torque characteristics evaluated at steady state operation. The results show that the electromagnetic torque ripple is increased by up to 73 \% and 78 \% whereas the inverter switching losses is decreased by up to -17 \% and -41 \% for the EUDC driving cycle using DPWM30 and DPWM60, respectively. |
