Abstract

AbstractDirect torque control (DTC) is one of the most prominent control techniques used by permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives in industry applications. Nevertheless, the presence of hysteresis controllers and inaccurate voltage switching table in traditional DTC results in higher torque and flux ripple. This study proposes an enhanced DTC functioned Surface‐mounted PMSM (S‐PMSM) drive with mitigation of torque and flux ripple. The operation relies on generating the reference voltage vector (VV) in a stationary reference frame, which supports control of torque and flux without hysteresis controllers. The reference VV generation is simple and does not affect control robustness. The position of reference VV in a sector is used to build the voltage vector (VV) switching table. As a result, the application of nearest discrete VV to reference VV produces optimal torque and flux control. Moreover, redundant switching combinations of null VV are effectively used for possible minimization of switching frequency of two‐level voltage source inverter (VSI) supplied S‐PMSM drive. Therefore, proposed DTC gains improved S‐PMSM drive response along with switching frequency reduction. In dSPACE‐RTI 1104 platform, experimental response of S‐PMSM drive under various operating conditions have been depicted to highlight the proficiency of proposed DTC in comparison with existing DTC.
