Abstract

In this paper, novel remedial direct torque control (DTC) schemes are proposed for open-circuit faults in T-Type neutral-point-clamping (T-NPC) three-level asymmetric six-phase permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives. First, a simplified space vector modulation (SVM) is designed and applied for DTC-controlled asymmetric six-phase drive, in such a way that both good current harmonic performance and fast dynamic response are available. Based on the SVM-DTC scheme, a remedial strategy is proposed for the open-circuit faults in phase windings. The key is to derive the relationship between the stator fluxes and the stator voltages of all phases under faulty condition. Then, a derived perturbation term is compensated for normal voltage references, and the fault-Tolerant scheme is, thus, implemented without changing control structure of normal condition. The remedial DTC schemes are also studied and proposed for open-switch faults in T-NPC six-phase drives. The modulation methods are redesigned for the faults in half-bridge switches and NPC switches. The experiments are carried out on a laboratory prototype to verify the validity and performance of the proposed fault-Tolerant control schemes.
