5、UCTIONIn recent years, permanent-magnet (PM) brushless motordrives have been widely used in electric vehicles (EVs) 1-2.The doubly-salient PM (DSPM) motor drive and PM hybridbrushless (PMHB) motor drive are two emerging stator-PMbrushless motor drives which offer high mechanical integrityand high po

However, a quantitative comparison of thesewo motor drives is absent in literatureThe purpose of this p

7、aper is to newly compare two emergingouter-rotor stator-PM brushless motor drives, namely the DSPMand PMHB types.

10、emes of these two outer-rotor stator-PM motor drives when they serve as the in-wheel motor drives for EVs, especially for motorcycles. It can be seen that these in-wheel motor drives effectively utilize the outer-rotor nature and directly couple with the tire rims. So, these topologies can fully uti

12、Figs. 2 and 3. It can be found that they have the similar three-phase full bridge driver for the armature windings; while the difference is the H-bridge driver for the DC field windings of the PMHB motor drive. Hence, their operation principles are very similar, except that the controllable field cu

13、rrent of the PMHB motor drive. For both motor drives, when the air-gap flux linkage increases with the rotor angle, a positive current is applied to the armature windings, resulting in a positive torque When the flux linkage decreases, a negative current is applied, also resulting in a positive torq

14、ue For the PMHB motor drive, it can accomplish online flux regulation by tuning the bidirectional DC fieldcurrent.When these two motor drives act as in-wheel motor drives and are installed in the EVs, they operate at three modes within the speed range of 0lOOOipm, namely the starting, the cruising,

15、and the charging. When the EV operates at the starting mode, it needs a high torque for launching or accelerating within a short time. For the DSPM motor drive, since its PM volume is much more than that of PMHB motor one, it can provide a sufficiently high torque for the EV starting. For the PMHB m

16、otor drive, the positive DC field current will be added to produce the magnetic field together with the PM excited field, hence it also able to offer the high torque for the EV to overcome the starting resistance and the friction force on the roadWhen the EV runs downhill or works in braking conditi

17、on, it works in the charging mode In this mode, these two machines can play the role of electromechanical energy conversion, which recover or regenerate the braking energy to recharge the battery module Furthermore, for the PMHB machine drive, it can fully utilize its flux controllable ability to ma

18、intain the constant output voltage for directly charging the battery, which is more flexible than the DSPM machine driveWhen the EV runs in the cruising mode or in the steady speed, these stator-PM motor drives will enter the constant-power region. This speed range usually covers 400rpm-1 OOOrpm for

19、 the DSPM in-wheel motor drive. But for the PMHB motor drive, it not only can effectively extend its operating speed range up to 4000rpm which is enough to cover the conventional speed range requirement, but also can regulate its magnetic field situation which can make the power module working at th

21、III. COMPARISON OF MOTOR DRIVES STRUCTURES AND FEATURESThe two stator-PM motor drives structures are shown in Figs. 2 and 3. It can be seen that they have the same peripheral dimensions and the identical outer rotor, as well as the same 36/24 pole and armature windings The major difference is their

22、stators and field excitations. The DSPM motor drive is simply excited by PMs, which is located in the stator. But for the PMHB motor drive, it has double-layer stator and double excitations Its outer-layer stator accommodates the armature windings, whereas its inner-layer stator contains PMs and DC

23、field windings together to produce the magnetic field 6. Their similar structures achieve many advantages when they serve as the inwheel motor drives for EVs. The outer-rotor nature can make the machine directly connect with the tire rim, which totally eliminates the mechanical gear transmission and

24、 processes high mechanical integrity. Hence, it reduces the power loss, the system complication, and the total cost. These motor drives fully utilize the whole space, which makes them compact and effective They arrange the stator to locate the windings and excitations, hence resulting in the robust

25、outer rotor. The concentrated armature windings with 36/24 fractional-slot stnicture can shorten the magnetic flux path and the span of end-windings, which lead to reduce bo什 1 iron and copper materials. Moreover, this arrangement of windings can significantly reduce the cogging torque which usually

26、 occurs at conventional PM motor drives. Their different constructions also make them have distinct features. For the DSPM motor drive, it has simpler structure than the PMHB one Also its control strategy is simpler. But this simple structure limits its flexibility due to its uncontrollable airgap f

27、lux For the PMHB motor drive, since it fully takes advantage of double excitations (both PMs and DC field windings), it can offer flexible airgap flux control, including flux strengthening or weakening. In addition, the air-bridge is present to shunt with each PM, hence amplifying the fluxweakening

28、ability. The corresponding field excitation inevitably causes additional power loss Nevertheless, this reduction of efficiency can be partially compensated by the efficiency improvement due to airgap flux control. By properly tuning the airgap flux density, the efficiency can be online optimized at

29、different speeds and loads.EFig. 4. Control strategies, (a) DSPM. (b) PMHB.Fig. 4 shows the control strategies of these two stator-PM motor drives, indicating that the PMHB motor drive has an additional flux controller to regulate the airgap fluxThe pole selection of the DSPM motor drive is governed

30、 by the following equations:N, = 2mk and N, =N.、- 2k (I)where m is the nuniber of phases, k the integer, N、the number of stator poles, and N,the number of rotor poles The pole selection of the PMHB motor drive is given by:Z =4mp and Nr =2Ns/m (2)where p is the number of pole pairs of the DC field wi

31、ndings.Therefor® when the suitable parameters are selected, namely m= 3, p= 3. and k= 6 , the poles of these stator-PM motor drives lead to be " =36, and " =24 . it can be found that for three-phase armature windings of the PMHB motor drive, all the other parameters can be obtained ac

32、cording to the value of p. Hence, the aforementioned equation (2) can be used to simply determine the other possible slot-tooth combination for the PMHB motor drive.IV. ANALYSIS APPROACHThe CFT-TS-FEM can be used to analyze the steady-state and ransient performances of both machine drives For each m

33、achine drive, the mathematic model consists of three sets of equations: the electromagnetic field equation of the machine, the circuit equation of the armature windings, and the motion equation of the motor drive The electromagnetic field equation of both machine drives is given by 7:G:巧where Q is t

34、he field solution region, V the reluctivity, a the electrical conductivity, J the current density, A the magnetic vector potential component along the z axis, and Brx and Bry the PM remanent flux density components along the x axis and y axis, respectively.It should be noted that for the PMHB machin

35、e drive, the DC field current excitation is regarded as a component added together with the PM component as the magnetization.The circuit equation of the armature windings at motoring is governed by:where u is the impressed voltage, R the resistance per phase winding, i the phase current, Le the ind

36、uctance of the end winding, 1 the axis length of iron core, S the conductor area of each turn of phase winding, and the total cross-sectional area of conductors of each phase winding.The motion equation of both motor drives is given by:where Jm is the moment of inertia, Te the electromagnetic torque

37、, Ti the load torque, k the damping constant, and co the mechanical speed.After discretization, the above three sets of equations can be solved at each step Hence, the steady-state and transient performance of both machine drives can be deduced Fig 5 shows the no-load magnetic field distributions of

38、 both machine drives. Il can be seen that the DSPM machine has a constant field pattern, whereas the PMHB machine exhibits different field patterns at different field excitations (-350 A-turns, 0 A-turns, and +1000 A-turns). It verifies that PMHB motor drive has the flux controllable ability.Fig. 5

COMPARISON OF MOTOR DRIVE PERFORMANCESBased on the same peripheral dimensions and the identical outer-rotor configuration, the two stator-PM motor drives are designed Their corres

40、ponding design data are listed in Table I.Since the DSPM motor can accommodate more PMs than the PMHB one, its power density is 167% of the PMHB one However, this merit in power density is offset by the high cost of PMs. From Table I, it can be seen that the DSPM motor utilizes the PM volume up to 5

41、02% of the PMHB one. Based on the present international rates, the PM material cost of the DSPM motor is US$116.3 as shown in Table II, which is much higher than the US$22.3 of the PMHB one. Hence, it leads to the total material cost of the DSPM motor is over 174% of the PMHB one. The corresponding

42、cost per unit power and per unit torque of the PMHB motor is significantly less than that of the DSPM one Thus, the PMHB motor is much more cost-effective than that of the DSPM oneTABLE IPARAMETERS OF DSPM AND PMHB MOTOR DRIVESArmature current density5 A/mm2Armature phases3Rotor outside diameter270.

45、Cost per unit power53.1 USD/kW4&6 USD/kWBy using the CFT-TS-FEM, the electromagnetic characteristics of the two motor drives are calculated and compared Fig. 6 shows the airgap flux density distributions of both motor drives, indicating that the PMHB motor drive can offer a very wide range of fl

46、ux control (up to 9 times). Then, the flux linkage of the DSPM machine at full magnetization level is shown in Fig. 7(a), whereas those of the PMHB machine are computed at different magnetization levels with various field currents and shown in Fig. 7(b). It can be seen that the two motor drives have

47、 the similar forms of flux linkages, but have different amplitudes.Due to the use of more PMs, the DSPM motor drive can definitely produce higher torque than the PMHB motor one. Nevertheless, as shown in Fig. & the PMHB motor drive can utilize flux strengthening to achieve the torque up to 85.7%

48、 of the DSPM motor one, even though its PM volume is only 19.2% of the DSPM one. Also, since the PMHB motor drive inherentlyprovides low airgap flux density than the DSPM motor one while they have a similar tooth-slot structure, the PMHB motor drive can offer significantly lower cogging torque than

49、that the DSPM motor one as depicted in Fig. 9. It also illustrates that the cogging torque of both motor drives is small due to the use of concentratedarmature windings with 36/24 fractional-slot structureWhen the two motor drives run in the starting mode, their transient torque responses (normalize

50、d by the rated values) are compared as shown in Fig. 10. When they start a load torque of 40 Nm, their armature currents can still be limited to 2 times the rated value It can be also found that the PMHB motor drive can produce much higher starting torque in the presence of flux strengthening at 750

51、 A-turnWhen bodi of the stator-PM machines work in the generation mode, their no-load EMF waveforms at different speeds are shown in Fig. 11.
