MOTOR, CONTROL METHOD, POWER SYSTEM, AND ELECTRIC VEHICLE

Disclosed is a motor, a control method, a power system, and an electric vehicle. Each phase stator winding of the motor includes two sub-winding sets. When a traction battery needs to be heated, the two sub-winding sets of the motor store electrical energy and provide alternating currents to the traction battery through an inverter, so that the traction battery uses its internal resistance for heating. In addition, the two sub-winding sets generate opposite magnetic fields which cancel each other out, so that the strength of the magnetic field inside each phase stator winding and the air gap magnetic flux are reduced, thereby alleviating the heat generation and NVH problems of the motor.

SHORT-CIRCUIT FAULT-TOLERANT CONTROL METHOD BASED ON DEADBEAT CURRENT TRACKING FOR FIVE-PHASE PERMANENT MAGNET MOTOR WITH SINUSOIDAL BACK-ELECTROMOTIVE FORCE OR TRAPEZOIDAL BACK-ELECTROMOTIVE FORCE

A short-circuit fault-tolerant control method based on deadbeat current tracking for a five-phase permanent magnet motor with a sinusoidal back-electromotive force or a trapezoidal back-electromotive force (EMF) is provided. By fully utilizing a third harmonic space of a five-phase permanent magnet motor in a fault state, the method proposes a fault-tolerant control strategy for a five-phase permanent magnet motor with a sinusoidal back-EMF or a trapezoidal back-EMF in case of a single-phase short-circuit fault. The method enables the five-phase permanent magnet motor to make full use of the third harmonic space during fault-tolerant operation, thereby improving the torque output of the motor in a fault state and improving the fault-tolerant operation efficiency of the motor. The method achieves desirable fault-tolerant performance and dynamic response of the motor, and expands the speed range of the motor during fault-tolerant operation.

20220360142 · 2022-11-10 ·

A method for determining a state of an electric motor having a stator (2) and a rotor (3) rotatably mounted relative to the stator (2) is disclosed. Due to a rotary motion of the rotor (3), a pressure difference (p) relative to an environment (15) of the electric motor (1, 1′, 1″, 1′″) is caused in an air space (16) inside the electric motor (1, 1′, 1″, 1′″). Here, in a normal state of the electric motor (1, 1′, 1″, 1′″), the pressure difference depends on an actual rotational speed (n) of the rotor (3). A corresponding electric motor suitable for carrying out this method is disclosed, wherein the electric motor may be part of a fan.
