Abstract:
In order to meet safety standards in manufacturing industry many production machines are equipped with safety stop functions based on spring-loaded systems. This paper deals with an integrated eddy current brake of a high force tubular permanent magnet linear actuator for hydraulic applications with small actuating pathes. An analytical description of different design criteria for the integrated eddy current brake are shown. The special not rotational symmetrical design of the tubular linear actuator is transferred to a 2D transient FEM simulation model to predict the braking behavior caused by the spring load in case of an emergency stop. Measurements on a test bench are in good agreement with the simulation results and are used to validate the model. - 169.F. Senicar, A. Bartsch, K. Klitzke and S.

Abstract:
This paper presents the improvement of the precision and bandwidth of the current control loop implemented in a field programmable gate array (FPGA) based inverter. By compensating the nonlinear effects of the IGBT power stage with a feed forward control, the current controller is relieved resulting in an output current with less harmonics and a better frequency response. In order to improve the current control loop even further, a current observer, based on a Luenberger observer is implemented. - 168.A. Uphues, K. Nötzold, R. Wegener, K. Fink, M. Bragard, R.

Abstract:
With increased wind power penetration, grid codes of system operators require low voltage ride through (LVRT) capability for wind turbines (WT). This paper describes a full power test bench, designed to evaluate the functionality of grid connected converter in nominal operating mode and in case of LVRT. To verify the LVRT capability an inverter based voltage sag generator (VSG) is developed which emulates grid failures. - 167.A. Uphues, K. Nötzold, R. Wegener and S.

Abstract:
Due to the increasing wind power penetration, grid codes of system operators require low voltage ride through (LVRT) capability for wind turbines (WT). Additionally the WT has to support the power system stability in LVRT cases by supporting the grid with reactive power. The amount of reactive power feed-in depends on the type of grid fault and the depth of the voltage dip. Therefore this paper shows a reliable grid voltage monitoring consisting on a second order generalized integrator (SOGI) structure. The resulting phase locked loop (PLL) is tolerant against grid faults and the amplitudes and phase angles of the individual phase voltages are detected. - 166.A. Uphues, K. Nötzold, R. Wegener, S.

Abstract:
Due to the increasing wind power penetration, grid codes of system operators require low voltage ride through (LVRT) capability for wind turbines (WT). Additionally the WT has to support the power system stability in LVRT cases by supporting the grid with reactive power. By feeding symmetrical reactive currents in case of asymmetrical grid errors, as required in many actual grid codes, the phase voltage of the undistorted phase will increase above the upper voltage limit. This paper shows a strategy to feed asymmetrical reactive currents into the distorted grid without increasing the phase voltage in the undistorted phase. - 165.A. Uphues, K. Nötzold, R. Wegener, S.

Abstract:
Due to the increasing wind power penetration, grid codes of system operators require low voltage ride through (LVRT) capability for wind turbines (WT). Additionally the WT has to support the power system stability in LVRT cases. To evaluate the LVRT capability of grid connected converter, a voltage sag generator (VSG) is required to emulate grid failures. This paper introduces a three phase programmable inverter based VSG, which is equipped with a cascaded control structure consisting of proportional resonant (PR) current controller and PR voltage controller. The described VSG is able to emulate all required voltage sags, propagated through a delta star connected transformer, very precisely. The control structure has been simulated and tested successfully on a 2MW full power testbench. - 164.A. Bartsch, F. Senicar and S.

Abstract:
This paper presents the design and implementation of motor control peripherals on a field programmable gate array (FPGA) in conjuction with a microcontroller, forming a powerful and flexible computing platform for inverter drives. The implementation of a vector controlled pulse width modulation, an encoder interface and a current measurement unit are described. Furthermore a current control unit is implemented on the FPGA in order to relieve the microcontroller from some high frequency real-time tasks. The FPGA and the microcontroller form a flexible control board which is used for different projects including high speed multi level inverters and four quadrant drive systems. Furthermore multi axes systems can be implement without any performance drawbacks and just a moderately increased effort optimizing the use of an FPGA. - 163.S. Gruber, R. Wegener and S.

Abstract:
In order to meet industrial safety standards in eccentric presses, the detent force caused by the reluctance change between permanent magnet (PM) and stator teeth of the acting high force tubular permanent magnet linear synchronous machines (PMLSM) should be reduced. The detent force is generated by two components: the slot effect which is already decreased by the closing slot technique and proven in [3] and the end effect which will be optimized by using auxiliary poles at the end of the machine. Therefore a special genetic algorithm (GA) is developed which rates the simulation results of the FEM and produces new auxiliary poles. The combined simulation tries to find an optimal size and position for auxiliary poles to reduce the whole detent force. The numerical calculations propose a minimized detent force caused by the located poles, which is independent from the length of the machines (1 to 5 modules). The result will be proven by measurements. - 162.F. Senicar, A. Bartsch, B. Krüger and S.

Abstract:
This paper presents the optimization of the current control loop implemented in a field programmable gate array (FPGA) based inverter. The bandwidth of the current controller is significantly enhanced by reducing the delay times to its theoretical minimum. The optimizations are at first analyzed on a theoretical basis and afterwards verified on the actual target system. It is discussed, that the optimized current controller can be implemented without any drawbacks in terms of available output voltage. It is shown, that the significant reduction of delay times can be implemented in practice, greatly enhancing the bandwidth of the current controller, thus allowing a much higher controller gain. - 161.A.

Abstract:
To regulate the current in grid connected power converters mostly proportional integral (PI) controller in synchronous reference frame are used. To improve their known drawbacks such as complexity of control structure because of the dq-transformation and the poor behavior concerning low order harmonics compensation, proportional resonant (PR) controller gained a large popularity. This paper describes the differences between using PI-controller and PR-controller in a 2MW grid connected power converter for wind turbines. The control theory of PR filters and implementing them as delta based infinite impulse response (IIR) filters in a fixed-point microcontroller is presented. The PR-controller with harmonic compensation has been tested in a 2MW power converter.
