dc.description.abstract | High-performance AC machinery and drive systems can be found in a variety of applications ranging from motion control to vehicle propulsion. However, machine parameters can vary significantly with electrical frequency, flux levels, and temperature, degrading the performance of the drive system. While adaptive control techniques can be used to estimate machine parameters online, it is sometimes desirable to estimate certain parameters offline. Additionally, parameter identification and control are typically conflicting objectives with identification requiring plant inputs which are rich in harmonics, and control objectives often consisting of regulation to a constant set-point. In this dissertation, we present research which seeks to address these issues for high-performance AC machinery and drive systems. The first part of this dissertation concerns the offline identification of induction machine parameters. Specifically, we have developed a new technique for induction machine parameter identification which can easily be implemented using a voltage-source inverter. The proposed technique is based on fitting steady-state experimental data to the circular stator current locus in the stator flux linkage reference-frame for varying steady-state slip frequencies, and provides accurate estimates of the magnetic parameters, as well as the rotor resistance and core loss conductance. Experimental results for a 43 kW induction machine are provided which demonstrate the utility of the proposed technique by characterizing the machine over a wide range of flux levels, including magnetic saturation. The remainder of this dissertation concerns the development of generalizable design methodologies for Simultaneous Identification and Control (SIC) of overactuated systems via case studies with Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines (PMSMs). Specifically, we present different approaches to the design of adaptive controllers for PMSMs which exploit overactuation to achieve identification and control objectives simultaneously. The first approach utilizes a disturbance decoupling control law to prevent the excitation input from perturbing the regulated output. The second approach uses a Lyapunov-based adaptive controller to constrain the states to the output error-zeroing manifold on which they are varied to provide excitation for parameter identification. Finally, a receding-horizon control allocation approach is presented which includes a metric for generating persistently exciting reference trajectories. | |
