Abstract |
A BLDC motor has a serious drawback that torque pulsation is generated in every commutation period though it has many advatages compared to the conventional DC Motor. In this paper, the influence of commutation time on torque pulsation is studied. Generally in calculating the torque of BLDC motor, it is assumed that the decaying phase back EMF is constant, but the torque model considering decaying phase back EMF is introduced here. Through it, the torque in commutation period has torque pulsation component caused by commutation itself and it cannot be removed perfectly even if there is no current pulsation. To reduce the torque pulsation, a new method is proposed, which controls a point of commutation and the optimal point of commutation is found. Simulation shows that proposed method reduces the torque pulsation considerately. |
