Unified Control Scheme Of Five-Phase Open-Winding Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Generator Systems For Aerospace Applications

In order to satisfy with the demand of high reliability in the aerospace field, a unified control scheme is proposed for five-phase open-winding permanent-magnet synchronous generator (FPOWPMSG) in this paper. Firstly, the mathematical model of FPOWPMSG in the phase coordinate system is established. Then, the proposed unified control scheme is presented in detail, which is mainly composed of the unified reference current generator, the current regulator, the synchronous electromotive force (EMF) compensator, and the piecewise nonlinear predictive compensator. In the unified reference current generator, normal operation, single-phase open-circuit, adjacent two-phase open-circuit, and non-adjacent two-phase open-circuit are taken into account by introducing a fault matrix. In the current regulator, the PI regulator is used. And the current tracking accuracy and the torque ripple are improved by both the synchronous EMF compensator and the piecewise nonlinear predictive compensator. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed unified control scheme is validated by experimental results.
