1          Introduction
  
 +
BRUSHLESS dc motor recommended high and low power applications due to their advantages of high-efficiency, high torque/inertia ratio, variable speed operation, and low electromagnetic interference (EMI)<sup>1</sup>. A BLDC motor is silent operation, compact form, high torque-speed characteristics reliability and low maintenance<sup>2</sup>. Stator with three-phase winding arranged in trapezoidal nature excited with permanent magnets on the rotor. BLDC motor adds advantage of brush-less in commutator arrangement and an electronic based commutation of hall based position sensors used as a feedback signals<sup>4-5</sup>. the limitations met in BLDC motor due for variable speed operation over last decades continuing technology development in power semiconductors, microprocessors, adjustable speed drivers control schemes and permanent-magnet brushless electric motor production joined to enable reliable, cost-effective solution for a broad range of adjustable speed applications<sup>6-8</sup>. However, modelling of BLDC is a challenge to any users due its stator winding in trapezoidal nature and rotor magnets position needs to be sensed at every instant to operate particular switches in ON and OFF condition<sup>9-12</sup>. A Hall Effect sensor is used to provide rotor magnets information and corresponding decoding signals to ON –OFF PWM signals. It is necessary to model actuator with effective dynamic performance system and less ripple harmonics<sup>13-16</sup>.  The proposed BLDC motor modelling is carried in MATLAB simulink environment. MATLAB is an efficient tool for modelling an electrical systems and it is necessary to design BLDC motor i.e actuator for desire performance in overall systems. Modelling of BLDC motor in MATLAB is proposed in this paper with three modelling methods state space model, state transfer equations and transfer functions. Modelling of BLDC motor is carried with three subsystems Modelling of Inverter, Modelling of Motor and Modelling of Decoder.

The performance evaluation results show that, such a modelling is very useful in studying the drive system before taking up the dedicated controller design, accounting the relevant dynamic parameters of the motor. The paper presents an implementation of BLDC motor dynamic model, by using the transfer functions, transfer equations and state space modeling using MATLAB-SIMULINK in which all methods performed well and every method has its drawbacks. An inverter mathematical model is also simulated in MATLAB-SIMULINK with corresponding encoder, current controller, hall sensor and back-EMF generation. Motor parameters of real BLDC motor is used and verified as per values in the data sheet. From the results obtained from three modeling techniques of BLDC motor, state space modeling worked well, it is efficient methods to model BLDC motor. By adopting BLDC motor modeling in state space form will be a potential advantage in many actuation system applications.

Robust Modeling and Simulation State Space Model Based BLDC Motor Fed Universal Actuation System

Abstract:

This paper deals with mathematical modeling of Permanent magnet brushless DC (BLDC) motor in MATLAB-SIMULINK environment. Modeling of BLDC motor carried in transfer function, transfer equations and state space model to verify the performance as actuators. Mathematical switches to control electronic commutation of BLDC motor based on signals of Hall Effect position sensor using three-phase inverter drive. Performance of the simplified mathematical inverter fed BLDC motor under steady state and dynamic conditions analyzed. Due to the switching losses during PWM generation generates low ripple content in torque of BLDC motor which described and eliminated through state space model. Comparison made of proposed modeling of BLDC motor with motor parameters like back-EMF, stator current and speed of BLDC motor, proposed work suggests the state space modeling holds a superior method for design of BLDC motor during high dynamic load performance and operating ranges.

1          Introduction

BRUSHLESS dc motor recommended high and low power applications due to their advantages of high-efficiency, high torque/inertia ratio, variable speed operation, and low electromagnetic interference (EMI)1. A BLDC motor is silent operation, compact form, high torque-speed characteristics reliability and low maintenance2. Stator with three-phase winding arranged in trapezoidal nature excited with permanent magnets on the rotor. BLDC motor adds advantage of brush-less in commutator arrangement and an electronic based commutation of hall based position sensors used as a feedback signals4-5. the limitations met in BLDC motor due for variable speed operation over last decades continuing technology development in power semiconductors, microprocessors, adjustable speed drivers control schemes and permanent-magnet brushless electric motor production joined to enable reliable, cost-effective solution for a broad range of adjustable speed applications6-8. However, modelling of BLDC is a challenge to any users due its stator winding in trapezoidal nature and rotor magnets position needs to be sensed at every instant to operate particular switches in ON and OFF condition9-12. A Hall Effect sensor is used to provide rotor magnets information and corresponding decoding signals to ON –OFF PWM signals. It is necessary to model actuator with effective dynamic performance system and less ripple harmonics13-16.  The proposed BLDC motor modelling is carried in MATLAB simulink environment. MATLAB is an efficient tool for modelling an electrical systems and it is necessary to design BLDC motor i.e actuator for desire performance in overall systems. Modelling of BLDC motor in MATLAB is proposed in this paper with three modelling methods state space model, state transfer equations and transfer functions. Modelling of BLDC motor is carried with three subsystems Modelling of Inverter, Modelling of Motor and Modelling of Decoder.

WhereVab, Vbc  and, Vca are the stator phase voltages; R is the stator resistance per phase; ia ,ib and ic are the stator phase currents; L areinductance of phases; It has been assumed that resistance of all the winding are equal. It also has been assumed that if there no change in the rotor reluctance with angle because of a no salient rotor and then

BLDC motor model is electromagnetic torque and current of motor. The other is a mechanical part, which generates revolution of motor. Under the above assumption, the electrical part of BLDC motor can be represented as

4.2        Modelling of BLDC motor in Transfer Equation

BLDC motor is modeled using transfer equations with voltage and current equations with inverter and gate decoder circuits. Motor model is based on input parameters of Van,Vbn,Vcn and load torque(Tl) as shown in equations(1-3,8) to generate voltage with corresponding back-EMF (Ea, Eb,Ec). To generate angle back-EMF a look up based logic is used with motor back-EMF constant (Ke) as described in Table.II. Total electromagnetic torque is become conversant with by summing electrical and mechanical torque with product of torque constant (Kl). The mechanical side motor modeling is carried in a transfer equations based modeling as parameter rotor inertia, static and rotor dynamic torque constant as mentioned in Table. II. The complete modeling of BLDC motor with inverter gate drive and back-EMF generations in transfer equations is shown in fig.10 to form transfer function and modeled using MATLAB-SIMULINK

From the results obtained from three modeling techniques of BLDC motor in Sim-power system has better performance compared with others. Powergui block in MATLAB has automatically converted the MATLAB-model into average model in SIMULINK which is not possible in transfer function and State-space modeling of BLDC motor.

5. Conclusion

The performance evaluation results show that, such a modelling is very useful in studying the drive system before taking up the dedicated controller design, accounting the relevant dynamic parameters of the motor. The paper presents an implementation of BLDC motor dynamic model, by using the transfer functions, transfer equations and state space modeling using MATLAB-SIMULINK in which all methods performed well and every method has its drawbacks. An inverter mathematical model is also simulated in MATLAB-SIMULINK with corresponding encoder, current controller, hall sensor and back-EMF generation. Motor parameters of real BLDC motor is used and verified as per values in the data sheet. From the results obtained from three modeling techniques of BLDC motor, state space modeling worked well, it is efficient methods to model BLDC motor. By adopting BLDC motor modeling in state space form will be a potential advantage in many actuation system applications.
