Restart Strategy for Scalar Controlled Synchronous Reluctance Machine Driving a High-Inertia Load with a Single DC-link Current Sensor

초록

This paper proposes an approach for implementing the restart for Synchronous Reluctance Machines (SynRMs) driving a high inertia load. The proposed method uses a simple identification algorithm to estimate the rotor speed and position of the machine so that the appropriate voltage vector can be applied to the machine, thus minimizing the inrush current at the instant of the restart. The novelty is that its implementation only requires nameplate machine parameters and a single DC-link current sensor. The proposed method is suitable for implementation with both high-inertia vector and scalar-controlled SynRMs.
