ê Electro-magnetic Field The magnetic force is one of the four fundamental forces of ê Electro-magnetic Field The magnetic force is one of the four fundamental forces of the Universe (with gravitation, nuclear strong and nuclear weak forces). The origin of the magnetic force is in the tiny electric currents, at atomic level, of the spinning of electrons, thus it can be named the electro-magnetic force. At a natural stage it can be detected around naturally magnetic materials, or at the level of the earth magnetic field (itself due to the circulation of the magma, in the heart of the earth). As a force it exerts an attraction or a repulsion on any material subject to an electric current, such as another magnet, or any electric circuit. At our macroscopic level, in the natural stage, it is a small force compared to gravitation. It can be detected with the magnetic needle of a compass. To obtain a stronger magnetic force we must use much greater currents than those of the spinning of electrons. | CUSTOMISED TECHNOLOGY FOR CUSTOMER SUCCESS | January 2014 | 3

ê Electro-magnetic Field It is easy to obtain a « magnet » with an ê Electro-magnetic Field It is easy to obtain a « magnet » with an electric circuit by simply « stacking » the effects of a current circulating (rotating) into a series of coils, wound together, in a common winding. Natural field lines B E If the value of the current is constant, the resulting magnetic field will be constant, in space as well as in time. The force itself can be represented in each point of the space by a vector, B, called « induction » , measured in Tesla Field lines guided by magnetic circuit The magnetic field can be guided within a magnetic circuit, composed of piled-up magnetic steel sheets. This is done in transformers and electric machines. Magnetic circuit | CUSTOMISED TECHNOLOGY FOR CUSTOMER SUCCESS | January 2014 | 4

ê Electro-magnetic Field - Flux As any force the induction is represented by a ê Electro-magnetic Field - Flux As any force the induction is represented by a vector, it has an intensity, and a direction, it is oriented. North B The orientation of the induction in each point of the space, gives the orientation of the field lines, the lines to which the induction vector is tangent, in each point. The intensity of the induction corresponds to a strength of the magnetic field. Because of its orientation and its strength, the magnetic field going through a closed circuit, or through a winding, can be seen as a flow. South In the same manner as a flow of water going through a pipe. The « flow » of the magnetic field is called the flux. Its strength, or intensity, is measured in Weber. | CUSTOMISED TECHNOLOGY FOR CUSTOMER SUCCESS | January 2014 | 5

With a sinusoidal current, we obtain a sinusoidal variation of the induction B I t t The magnetic field will vary in time, but not in space : the forces lines remain in the same place, only the induction, the direction and intensity of the force, will vary. | CUSTOMISED TECHNOLOGY FOR CUSTOMER SUCCESS | January 2014 | 7

In this case the coils will be distributed as shown on this figure We can represent the coils on a cut and flattened stator, seen from above In order to obtain a better distribution of the field, each coil will be made by a number of parallel coils, distributed in several slots and connected together Example with three parallel coils per phase | CUSTOMISED TECHNOLOGY FOR CUSTOMER SUCCESS | January 2014 | 11

ê Electric Machines – Synchronous Motor Principles The rotating stator field causes the rotor ê Electric Machines – Synchronous Motor Principles The rotating stator field causes the rotor poles to follow its rotation, at same speed, simply by magnetic attraction between opposite poles If there is no resisting torque on the shaft (no load), the poles will be in front of each other (north facing south) If there is a resisting torque on the shaft (load to be driven), there will be an angle between the axis of the rotor poles and the axis of the stator poles, but stator field and rotor will remain at the same speed The maximum possible torque corresponds to about 90° angle between stator poles axis and rotor pole axis. If the load increases beyond this limit the motor will drop out and stop | CUSTOMISED TECHNOLOGY FOR CUSTOMER SUCCESS | January 2014 | 14

The result will be an « induced » torque applied to the rotor cage | CUSTOMISED TECHNOLOGY FOR CUSTOMER SUCCESS | January 2014 | 16

ê Electric Machines – Induction Motor If there were no resisting torque on the ê Electric Machines – Induction Motor If there were no resisting torque on the shaft (no load at all), the induced torque would start the rotation of the rotor and bring it to the same speed as that of the stator rotating field. If there is a resisting torque on the shaft (load to be driven), it will slow down the rotor, and there will be a speed difference between stator field and rotor, a slippage The heavier the load, the bigger the slippage | CUSTOMISED TECHNOLOGY FOR CUSTOMER SUCCESS | January 2014 | 17

ê Electric Machines – Speed control How to control the speed of the synchronous ê Electric Machines – Speed control How to control the speed of the synchronous or induction motor ? This is easy The rotor shaft speed depends directly on the speed of the stator rotating field, which in turn directly depends on the frequency of the current or voltage applied to the stator circuit We will apply a voltage or current of the desired frequency to the stator circuit, to obtain the desired rotor speed For a synchronous motor this frequency directly corresponds to the rotor speed For an induction motor we shall have to add a frequency correction (ΔF), to compensate for the slippage : Fstator = Frotor + ΔF | CUSTOMISED TECHNOLOGY FOR CUSTOMER SUCCESS | January 2014 | 23

ê Frequency Converters Principles Control Architecture We can distinguish between two control methods, applicable ê Frequency Converters Principles Control Architecture We can distinguish between two control methods, applicable to both current and voltage fed inverters, to both synchronous and induction motors : Ø Scalar control : only the magnitude of vector variables is controlled Ø Vector control : magnitude and phase are controlled The difference is to be found in the motor model and computation method. Voltage (or current) and frequency are the two control variables. But both torque and flux depend on voltage (or current) and frequency. And moreover torque also depends on flux. So torque and flux cannot be controlled separately with scalar methods. The result of scalar methods is poor dynamic response and poor torque control (with the exception of « Direct Torque Control » , of which we will talk later on) But Flux Vector Control will de-couple, and separately control, torque and flux. | CUSTOMISED TECHNOLOGY FOR CUSTOMER SUCCESS | January 2014 | 33
