Investigation on modeling and simulation BLDC motor fed universal actuation system

Abstract

This paper deals with mathematical modeling of Permanent magnet brushless DC (BLDC) motor in MATLAB-SIMULINK environment. Modeling of BLDC motor carried in transfer function, transfer equations and state space model to verify the performance as actuators. Mathematical switches to control electronic commutation of BLDC motor based on signals of Hall Effect position sensor using three-phase inverter drive. Performance of the simplified mathematical inverter fed BLDC motor under steady state and dynamic conditions analyzed. Due to the switching losses during PWM generation generates low ripple content in torque of BLDC motor which described and eliminated through state space model. Comparison made of proposed modeling of BLDC motor with motor parameters like back-EMF, stator current and speed of BLDC motor, proposed work suggests the state space modeling holds a superior method for design of BLDC motor during high dynamic load performance and operating ranges.
