Control of Non-conventional Synchronous Motors

While classical synchronous motors are typically used to drive industrial production systems and robots with precision and speed, numerous applications require different controls for non-conventional situations. This authoritative work presents an in-depth treatment of efficient controls to improve the use of non-conventional motors.

Classical synchronous motors are the most effective device to drive industrial production systems and robots with precision and rapidity. However, numerous applications require efficient controls in non-conventional situations.

Firstly, this is the case with synchronous motors supplied by thyristor line-commutated inverters, or with synchronous motors with faults on one or several phases.

Secondly, many drive systems use non-conventional motors such as polyphase (more than three phases) synchronous motors, synchronous motors with double excitation, permanent magnet linear synchronous motors, synchronous and switched reluctance motors, stepping motors and piezoelectric motors.

This book presents efficient controls to improve the use of these non-conventional motors.
