Current Harmonics Control Algorithm for inverter-fed Nonlinear Synchronous Electrical Machines
(2023)
Current harmonics are a well known challenge of electrical machines. They can be undesirable as they can cause instabilities in the control, generate additional losses and lead to torque ripples with noise. However, they can also be specifically generated in new methods in order to improve the machine behavior. In this paper, an algorithm for controlling current harmonics is proposed. It can be described as a combination of different PI controllers for defined angles of the machine with repetitive control characteristics for whole revolutions. The controller design is explained and important points where linearization is necessary are shown. Furthermore, the limits are analyzed and, for validation, measurement results with a permanently excited synchronous machine on the test bench are considered.
A Nonlinear FEM Model to Calculate Third-Order Harmonic and Intermodulation in TC-SAW Devices
(2018)
Nonlinearities in Temperature Compensated SAW (TC-SAW) devices in the 2 GHz range are investigated using a nonlinear finite element model by simultaneously considering both third-order intermodulation distortion (IMD3)and third harmonic (H3). In the employed perturbation approach, different contributions to the total H3, the direct and indirect contribution, are discussed. H3 and IMD3 measurements were fitted simultaneously using scaling factors for SiO 2 film and Cu electrode nonlinear material tensors in TC-SAW devices. We employ a P-Matrix simulation as intermediate step: Firstly, measurement and nonlinear P-Matrix calculations for finite devices are compared and coefficients of the P-Matrix simulation are determined. The nonlinear tensor data of the different materials involved in periodic nonlinear finite element method (FEM) computations are optimized to fit periodic P-Matrix calculations by introducing scaling factors. Thus, the contribution of different materials to the nonlinear behavior of TC-SAW devices is obtained and the role of materials is discussed.
