Title:Experimental Determination of Dynamic System Simulation Parameters for a Bearingless Rotating-Field Axial-Force/Torque MotorAuthor(s):Walter Bauer, Paul Freudenthaler, Wolfgang Gruber, Wolfgang AmrheinAbstract:The dynamic system simulation and the control design process of the new developed bearingless rotating-field axialforce/torque motor (AFTM) requires an augmented statespace framework for mathematical system description. After a short summary of this framework, the main focus of this paper concentrates on the model parameterization using state-of-the-art drive gauging procedures. A direct comparison features minor deviations between magnetostatic finite element analysis simulation results and available measurement data. Moreover, a closed-loop control concept for concurrent axial position stabilization and vector drive control of AFTMs is proposed. The quality of the closed-loop control system simulation is reviewed using relevant measurements of the functional prototype. A presentation of the disassembled prototype and a summary of its performance data concludes this paper.Journal:Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part I: Journal of Systems and Control Eng.Publisher:Sage JournalsISSN:0959-6518Page Reference:page 348-359, 12 page(s)Publishing:5/2017Volume:231Number:5
