Power density maximization of the brushless DC generator Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • This paper presents an advanced control technique for power density maximization of the Brushless DC (BLDC) generator by using linear tracking method. In a generator of given rating, the weight and size of the system affect the fuel consumption directly therefore, power density is one of the most important issues in a stand-alone generator. The optimal current waveform for maximizing power density and minimizing machine size and weight in a nonsinusoidal power supply system has been proposed and verified by simulation and experiment. Also, a new simple algebraic method has been proposed to accomplish the proposed control without a FFT which is time consuming and complicated.
