“…the high-fidelity PMSM mode [25] based on LUTs of calibrated finite element analysis (FEA) results. Nevertheless, for high-speed surface-mounted PMSM (SPMSMs), the machine is usually linear across the operation range due to the relatively large effective air gap [1]- [3]. Hence, for simplicity, the linear current model with the measured inductances and PM flux linkage is used in this paper and proves sufficient in the later experiment results.…”

“…ue to high efficiency and high power density, high-speed permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) drives have currently been widely researched for many applications, including electric vehicles [1], more electric aircrafts [2], [3], high-speed spindles, and compressors, etc [4]. The high-speed drive usually features high fundamental frequencies, e.g.…”

“…The high-speed drive usually features high fundamental frequencies, e.g. 2 kHz for a starter/generator of aircrafts [2], [3]. Given the switching frequency limit of semiconductor devices, such as 10~20 kHz typically for IGBTs, the high-speed PMSM drive can exhibit very low switching-to-fundamental frequency ratios (SFRs).…”

“…Due to the development of power transistors (MOSFETs, IGBTs), which can be easily digitally controlled, it is possible to use AC S/G [116,126]. In [20], the integration of S/G and its associated converter is investigated. Such a solution proposes a relatively good current density of 10-12 A/mm2 within a small package.…”

“…In the field of electric power generation, different types of integrated starter/generators (S/G) have been investigated [14,15]. In the field of propulsion, various architectures have been proposed-all-electric [16,17], where only electrical power is used for propulsion; hybrid electric [18], where both electrical power and combustion (fuel) power are used; and turboelectric [19][20][21], which is similar to hybrid propulsion concept without batteries. These new concepts enable, by implementing electric "traction" motors, a total change in aircraft design.…”

On-board electrical systems are the key components of each modern aircraft. They enable its safer, more comfortable, and environmentally friendlier operation. The strict regulations to reduce pollution and noise are produced by aircraft eventuated in projects like Clean Sky or ICAO Global Coalition for Sustainable Aviation. One solution to environmentally friendlier operation is the full electric propulsion of the aircraft, which enables the reduction of both noise and pollution. Such a concept requires a total change of all on-board power systems and enables the profound change in aircraft design. This paper presents the evolution of aircraft power systems into the so-called more electric aircraft (MEA) and discusses the state-of-the-art electrical systems. Furthermore, the concept of all-electric aircraft (AEA) is presented here.

This article presents a dual‐winding permanent magnet generator (PMG) system with integrated dual‐channel controller to meet the requirements of high power density, high reliability, and high output performance of aircraft electric power system. The dual‐winding of the PMG are designed to have the same phase spatially, with which the same rotor position can be applied in independent vector control. In addition, a dual‐channel controller is applied to control the two sets of windings, which achieves high‐performance control under normal state and fault‐tolerant control under fault state. The integrated dual‐channel controller integrates two sets of main power circuits into one controller and uses a main control unit, which simplifies the PMG system leading to reduction in the overall volume and weight. Reliability analysis of dual‐winding PMG system is proposed to be compared with that of the single‐winding PMG system. A dual‐winding cooperative control strategy and a fault‐tolerant control strategy are proposed to achieve high‐performance control of DC‐link voltage under normal condition and redundant functions under fault condition. As a result, the reliability of the PMG system is improved. The experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed PMG system and the control strategy.
