Abstract
To identify the parameters of variable flux reluctance machines (VFRMs), the input voltage value is usually obtained from the reference voltage indirectly. However, the reference and actual voltages may be different due to the nonlinearity of the open winding inverter when using zero-sequence current, leading to the inaccuracy of parameter identification. To solve this problem, this paper proposes an equivalent nonlinearity voltage error model of the open winding inverter to compensate for the input voltage of VFRM during the online parameter identification. Since in the proposed method the phase current direction is not required, the calculation time can be reduced. Moreover, in the developed parameter identification model of VFRM the derived equivalent nonlinear voltage error is used to correct the input of the identification model so as to improve the accuracy of parameters. Finally, the experimental results on the prototype VFRM are presented for verification.
