Substantial efforts are currently underway around the world to develop environmentally friendly transportation,of which the development of electric vehicles plays a key role.Statorpermanent magnet(PM)machines have attracted wide attention due to the robust rotor structure and comparable performance in terms of normal permanent magnet synchronous machines(PMSM)having magnets in the roto.In particular,the flux-switching machines feature a particular magnetic circuit configuration that favors Dy-free magnets in terms of demagnetization risk,and as a result,the cost of the motor can be reduced considerably.With focus on applications in electric vehicles(EVs)and hybrid electric vehicles(HEVs),this paper reviews the latest developments of PM flux switching machines,with particular emphasis on the novel machine topologies and control strategies.
An all-digital hybrid current regulation scheme for the single-phase shunt active power filter (APF) is presented. The proposed hybrid current control scheme integrates the deadbeat control and the dual-mode structure repetitive control (DMRC) so that it can offer superior steady-state performance and good transient features. Unlike the conventional schemes, the proposed scheme-based APF can compensate both the odd and the even order harmonics in grid. The detailed design criteria and the stability analysis of the proposed hybrid current controller are presented. Moreover, an improved structure which incorporates the proposed hybrid controller and the resonant controller for tracking specific order harmonics is given. The relationships between the resonant controller and different repetitive control schemes are discussed. Experimental results verify the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed hybrid control scheme.
