Abstract
A low-vibration fault-tolerant current algorithm for six-phase permanent magnet motors under open-phase faults is provided. When a six-phase permanent magnet motor is supplied through a full-bridge configuration, the vibration performance of the motor dramatically deteriorates if the open-phase fault occurs. The types of open-phase faults include one-phase open-phase, adjacent two-phase open-phase, non-adjacent two-phase open-phase, and at most three-phase open-phase faults. To suppress the deterioration of the vibration response when open-phase fault occurs, the remaining phase magnetomotive force is reconfigured based on the reverse magnetomotive force in the synthesized magnetomotive force from the residual phases under different open-phase fault types, and the remaining phase currents are adjusted to maintain normal vibration response.

(16) The present disclosure discloses a low-vibration fault-tolerant current algorithm for six-phase permanent magnet motors under the open-phase faults, which includes the following steps: Step 1: As shown in
(17) The magnetomotive force under healthy operation is represented as the product of the fundamental winding function and the current function of the motor. The fundamental winding function of the motor is expressed as:

N is the number of turns in the stator winding, C.sub.p is the calculation coefficient of the fundamental winding function, p represents the number of rotor pole pairs, and k represents the numerical characterization of phase A to phase F. Phases A to F are spatially phased at 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, and 360, respectively. i.sub.A,B,C . . . represents the current function from phase A to phase F, represents the mechanical position angle, I.sub.m represents the current amplitude, and represents the electric angular velocity. f.sub.0 is the synthesized magnetic flux of six phases, and f.sub.k represents the fundamental winding magnetomotive force of one phase. The first half represents the forward fundamental magnetomotive force component, while the second half represents the reverse fundamental magnetomotive force component. As shown in
(26) The main radial force component that contributes to vibration under the healthy operation is the 12th order radial force with twice electrical frequency. The vibration response verified by simulation is mainly the vibration acceleration response. The specific simulation method is as follows:
(27) Firstly, the established finite element motor model is simulated and solved, and the obtained stator tooth surface radial force data of the motor is collected. Secondly, using structural finite element analysis software to simulate the modal parameters of the motor structure, the natural frequency data of each order of the motor is obtained. Finally, in the harmonic response calculation software, the radial force data and finite element modal parameters obtained are imported to couple the vibration acceleration response. The relationship between radial force and vibration acceleration is verified. The radial force component that plays a major role in vibration acceleration is clarified.

(31) The types of open-phase faults include one-phase open-phase fault, adjacent two-phase open-phase fault, non-adjacent two-phase open-phase fault, and three-phase open-phase fault. As shown in
(32) Analyzing the simulated magnetomotive force distribution under open-circuit faults, as shown in

(34) The magnetomotive force distribution under different types of open-phase faults is calculated in four situations. Due to the uniform and symmetric distribution of each phase winding in space, four typical operating conditions can be selected for magnetomotive force calculation under different open-phase faults. Specifically, taking the phase A open circuit as an example to represent one-phase open-circuit fault, the synthesized magnetomotive force can be expressed as:
(35)
where, f.sub.q1 represents the synthesized magnetomotive force of the remaining five phases, and f.sub.B f.sub.C
f.sub.D
f.sub.E
f.sub.F represent the one-phase magnetomotive force of phases B, C, D, E, and F, respectively.
(36) Taking the phase A and B open circuit as an example to represent adjacent two-phase open-phase fault, f.sub.q_ad2 represents the synthesized magnetomotive force of the remaining adjacent four phases, which can be expressed as:
(37)
(38) Taking the phase A and D open circuit as an example to represent non-adjacent two-phase open-phase fault, f.sub.q_nonad2 represents the synthesized magnetomotive force of the remaining non-adjacent four phases, which can be expressed as:
(39)
(40) Taking phase A, B and D open circuit as an example to represent three-phase open-phase fault, f.sub.q3 represents the synthesized magnetomotive force of the remaining three phases, which can be expressed as:
(41)
(42) The radial force distribution under open-phase faults is further simulated. According to the Maxwell stress equation, the zero-order radial force component are generated by the interaction between the fundamental reverse and forward magnetomotive force, which excites zero-order vibration and deteriorates vibration response. As shown in
(43) Among them, the zero-order vibration excited by the zero-order radial force mainly contributes to the vibration response under the open-phase faults. Specifically, the ratio of the zero-order vibration displacement excited by a unit zero-order radial force compared to the vibration displacement excited by an initial unit lowest-order radial force can be expressed as:
(44)
(45) Where Y.sub.s=0 represents the zero-order vibration displacement, Y.sub.s=2p represents the vibration displacement excited by the lowest-order radial force, R.sub.y represents the average radius of the stator yoke, which is 200 mm in the implemented motor, and T.sub.y represents the average thickness of the stator yoke, which is 20 mm in the implemented motor. After calculation, this ratio is 17. Therefore, the effect of the zero-order vibration is significant.
(46) Step 3: the differences in magnetomotive force distribution under various types of open-fault faults are addressed by reconfiguring the synthesized magnetomotive force of the remaining phases to improve vibration response under open-phase operation. The principle of reconfiguring the fundamental magnetomotive force is to ensure the maximum amplitude of the fundamental forward armature magnetomotive force and eliminate the fundamental reverse armature magnetomotive force as much as possible. Four typical open-phase conditions are selected to further design low-vibration magnetomotive force reconfiguration methods and determine the phase angle of the remaining phase currents.
(47) Taking phase A open circuit as an example to represent one-phase open circuit, as the remaining five-phase winding is symmetrically distributed about the D-phase winding, assuming the phase angles of phase B and F are 1 and 1, the phase angles of phase C and E are 1 and 1, respectively. Then, the fundamental magnetomotive force of the remaining phases is represented as:
(48)
where, f.sub.A f.sub.B
f.sub.C
f.sub.D
f.sub.E and f.sub.F represent the reconfigured magnetomotive force expressions for phase B, C, D, E, and F, respectively. The reconfigured five phase synthetic magnetomotive force can be expressed as:
(49)
(50) After calculation, when .sub.1 is 45 and 81 is 135, the forward fundamental magnetomotive force is maximized, and the reverse fundamental magnetomotive force is eliminated, achieving low-vibration magnetomotive force reconfiguration for one-phase open circuit.
(51) Taking phase A and B open circuit as an example to represent adjacent two-phase open-phase faults, since the remaining four-phase winding is symmetrically distributed, with phase C and F, phase D and E being symmetrical. Assuming the phase angles of phase C and F are .sub.2 and .sub.2, the phase angles of phase D and E are .sub.2 and .sub.2, respectively. Then, the fundamental magnetomotive force of the reconfigured remaining four phases is expressed as:
(52)
(53) The reconfigured four phase synthetic magnetomotive force can be expressed as:
(54)
(55) After calculation, when .sub.2 is 60 and .sub.2 is 180, the forward fundamental magnetomotive force is maximized, and the reverse fundamental magnetomotive force is eliminated, achieving low-vibration magnetomotive force reconfiguration for adjacent two-phase open-phase fault.
(56) Taking phase A and D open circuit as an example to represent non-adjacent two-phase open-phase fault, since the remaining four-phase winding is symmetrically distributed, with phase B and F, phase C and E being symmetrical. Assuming the phase angles of phase B and F are .sub.3 and .sub.3, the phase angles of phase C and E are .sub.3 and .sub.3, respectively. Then, the fundamental magnetomotive force of the reconfigured remaining four phases is expressed as:
(57)
(58) The reconfigured four phase synthetic magnetomotive force can be expressed as:
(59)
(60) After calculation, when .sub.3 is 30 and .sub.3 is 150, the forward fundamental magnetomotive force is maximized, and the reverse fundamental magnetomotive force is eliminated, achieving low-vibration magnetomotive force reconfiguration for non-adjacent two-phase open-fault fault.
(61) Taking phase A, B, and D open circuit as an example to represent adjacent three-phase open-fault faults, in the remaining three-phase winding, assuming phase C and F are symmetrically distributed with respect to phase E. The phase angles of phase C and F are .sub.4 and .sub.4, and the phase angle of phase E is 150. Then, the fundamental magnetomotive force of the reconfigured remaining three phases is expressed as:
(62)
(63) The reconfigured three phase synthetic magnetomotive force can be expressed as:
(64)
(65) After calculation, it has been determined that when .sub.4 is 30, the forward fundamental magnetomotive force is maximized, and the reverse fundamental magnetomotive force is eliminated, achieving low-vibration magnetomotive force reconfiguration for three-phase open-phase fault.
(66) Step 4: After determining the phase angle of the reconfigured current, the expression for the low-vibration fault-tolerant current can be obtained. The four typical open-phase conditions are used as examples.
(67) Taking phase A open circuit as an example to represent one-phase open-circuit fault, the forward synthetic magnetomotive force of the remaining five phases f.sub.5(,t) can be expressed as:
f.sub.5(,t)=0.25C.sub.p.Math.NI.sub.m.Math.4.86 cos(tp)(19)
(68) The relationship between the remaining five phase low-vibration fault-tolerant current I.sub.con and the initial current amplitude I.sub.m is:
(69)
(70) Hence, the remaining five phase low vibration fault-tolerant current can be expressed as:
(71)
where, I.sub.B I.sub.C
I.sub.D
I.sub.E and I.sub.F represent the low-vibration fault-tolerant current expressions for phases B, C, D, E, and F, respectively.
(72) Taking phase A and B open circuit as an example to represent adjacent two-phase open-fault fault, the forward synthetic magnetomotive force of the remaining four phases f.sub.4(,t) can be expressed as:
f.sub.4(,t)=0.25C.sub.p.Math.NI.sub.m.Math.3.46 cos(tp)(22)
(73) The relationship between the remaining four phase low-vibration fault-tolerant current I.sub.con and the initial current amplitude I.sub.m is:
(74)
(75) Hence, the remaining four phase low vibration fault-tolerant current can be expressed as:
(76)
(77) Taking phase A and D open circuit as an example to represent non-adjacent two-phase open-fault fault, the forward synthetic magnetomotive force of the remaining four phases f.sub.4(,t) can be expressed as:
f.sub.4(,t)=0.25C.sub.p.Math.NI.sub.m.Math.3.46 cos(tp)(25)
(78) The relationship between the remaining four phase low-vibration fault-tolerant current I.sub.con and the initial current amplitude I.sub.m is:
(79)
(80) Hence, the remaining four phase low vibration fault-tolerant current can be expressed as:
(81)
(82) Taking phase A, B and D open circuit as an example to represent three-phase open-fault fault, the forward synthetic magnetomotive force of the remaining four phases f.sub.3 (,t) can be expressed as:
f.sub.3(,t)=0.25C.sub.p.Math.NI.sub.m.Math.2 cos(tp)(28)
(83) The relationship between the remaining three phase low-vibration fault-tolerant current I.sub.con and the initial current amplitude I.sub.m is:
(84)
(85) Hence, the remaining three phase low vibration fault-tolerant current can be expressed as:
(86)
(87) Referring to
(88) Step 5: substituting the calculated low-vibration fault-tolerant current expressions as the excitation into the armature winding, the torque waveform, reverse magnetomotive force distribution, and radial force distribution can be calculated numerically by using electromagnetic finite element simulation software.
