Introduction Adjustable Speed Drives (ASD) and its need Evolution of the BDFM Principles of Operation Design of a Brushless Doubly-fed Induction Motor Comparison of BDFIM and Induction motor Potential Applications Merits and demerits Summary

www.technologyfuturae.com INTRODUCTIONBDFIM is an AC machine which can operate as

both a motor and a generatorThe stator has two sets of winding one is power

winding which is connected to the grid and the control winding which is supplied from a converter

A specially designed rotor assembly tries to focus most of the mutual magnetic field to follow an indirect path across the air-gap.Hence brushes are absent.

Power is supplied to the rotor by means of electromagnetic induction. Winding sets are excited independently and actively participate in the electro-mechanical energy conversion process, which is a criterion of doubly-fed electric machines

Schematic of BDFM


The shaft speed is adjusted by varying the frequency of the control winding. As a doubly-fed electric machine, the rating of the frequency converter need only be fraction of the machine rating.

A variety of rotor structures can be fitted into the stator namely BDFIM and BDFRM.

In BDFIM, the rotor is made of laminated steel and a nested cage of aluminum or copper rods and the operation is pertained to the squirrel-cage induction motor

In the BDFRM, the rotor is made of salient pole of laminated steel, similar to the operation of synchronous reluctance motor

Adjustable Speed Drives (ASD)

The equipment to control the speed of machinery. Also known as Variable speed Drive(VSD)

Primary function of adjustable speed drive is to control the speed, torque, acceleration, deceleration and direction of rotation of a machine.

The speed control of either an induction motor or a synchronous motor is done by adjusting the frequency of the power supplied to the motor.


Speeds must change to adapt to various tasks for improved product quality, production speed or safety.

There are two electric adjustable speed drives namely DC drives and AC drives.

Electrical drive is preferred due to its low initial cost, high efficiency, low maintenance requirements, excellent performance, saves energy and versatility.


Need For The Electrical Drive

In IM at start high inrush current cause high power loss which leads to insulation failure and affect the performance of the utility.

When the motor is operated at a minimum load magnetizing current is drawn and the PF is very low due to the inductive load.

When the motor operates at a PF less than unity, the current drawn by the motor is not sinusoidal in nature.


Power factor is the ratio of real power to reactive power. PF=P/ (Irms*Vrms)

Poor power factor is due to the phase displacement or due to the high harmonic current.

The PF is very important and the customer is forced to maintain the full-load condition for the entire operating time or else pay penalties for the light load condition.

In applications like cranes or hoists, stop and reverse of the motor is needed often

So for all the above problems there is a need for an electric drive which runs at various speed ranges.

www.technologyfuturae.comEvolution Of The BDFM The adoption of AC brought the induction

machine into industrial service. However industry required variable speed operation

Fundamental operating speed for an induction machine is fixed by the mains frequency

The common method of controlling the speed of induction machines was the introduction of series resistance to the rotor

Later on connecting two induction machines together allowed to achieve three different speeds of efficient operation. Such an arrangement was known as `cascaded induction machines'

www.technologyfuturae.comClick icon to add picturecascaded connection consists of

two wound-field induction machines coupled mechanically to the same shaft and loadThe slip power of the first machine is therefore used to excite the second machine .The stator windings of the second machine can be short-circuited or terminated in external resistancesThus the doubly-fed motor control can be realized without the use of brush gears.Three different efficient speeds of operation could be achieved.

www.technologyfuturae.comDOUBLY FED WOUND FIELD IM DRIVE


Two multiphase winding sets with similar pole-pairs are placed on the rotor and stator

A multiphase slip ring assembly is used to transfer power to the rotating winding set and to allow independent control of the rotor winding set.

Rotor winding set actively participates in the energy conversion process with the stator winding set.

www.technologyfuturae.comPRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

The operating principles of the BDFIM are illustrated with the help of cascade connection of induction motor consisting of two wound field induction machines having different pole numbers of 2p and 2q which are coupled mechanically to the same shaft and load.

www.technologyfuturae.com A set of symmetrical sinusoidal currents of

frequency f1 are flowing in the primary windings of the first machine, a counter-clock wise rotating field of w1=2пf1/p is set up in the airgap

The second machine is of 2q poles, the rotor currents will set up a rotating field of w2r=2пf2/q which will rotate in clock-wise with respect to the rotor.

fl is fixed and f2 is varied properly, the rotor speed can be controlled to be

wr= 2п (f1+f2)/(p+q) Hence, the combination acts like a 2(p+q) pole machine.


The first machine, usually connected to the 60 Hz utility, acts like a high-slip induction machine while the second machine can be in synchronous machine action or induction machine action

The electromagnetic torque found in the d-q reference frame is

Te=pMp (iqs1idr1-ids1iqr1) +qMq (iqs2idr2-idr2iqr2)

www.technologyfuturae.com POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS

Turbo-machinery hydro power generation commercial and industrial heating ventilation and air conditioning Wind power generation If the BDFM is maintained at its synchronous

speed, the secondary windings need to supply DC excitation to the motor and a fully rated variable frequency power converter can be used to supply the primary windings. Hence a brushless synchronous machine can be realized

summarized as Brushless High power factor operation when operating as

VSD Minimum system cost Energy saving
