    • Disclosed herein is a design for flux switching machines with one or more armature windings which can deliver controlled torque, in either selected direction on start up, without the use of a mechanical position sensor. Flux switching machines without sensors can operate equally well in either direction. The invention discloses design features for such machines which improves the torque profile of the motor with angle. In three phase machines this delivers higher torque and lower ripple torque. In single phase flux switching machines the invention allows the rotor to be placed in a position where maximum torque can be delivered in either direction by selection of either positive or negative armature current. Rotor slotting is introduced to create a path of low permeability across a rotor tooth with minimal impact on the normal torque producing flux paths. Asymmetry of stator slots is used to further create a stable rotor position when energised by predominantly field means or armature means. Starting of the rotor from this stable position can be achieved in either direction. The method is suitable for starting permanent magnet flux switching motors. The invention results in low cost single phase motors which can start and run in either direction and three phase flux switching motors with improved performance over the prior art.

    • An electrical machine having stator (30) and rotor (31) is disclosed. The motor has field windings (F) and armature windings (A) energized by a suitable power electronic controller (401). A controller (400) sends signals to the power electronic controller (401) to control the armature current to control operation of the machine. When the machine is operating as a motor, the armature windings (A) will be supplied with electrical current from the power electronic controller by the application of applied voltage in synchronism with the rotation of the rotor (31). A mutually induced first electrical signal dependent on rotational position of the rotor will be induced within the field windings (F). This will create a superimposed gradient in the field current delivered by the power electronic controller (401). The mutually induced first electrical signal can be extracted from the field current by block (402) which may be a differentiator circuit or may be a coil coupled to the magnetic field around the field current conductor. A signal conditioning circuit (403) is provided which may contain a filter circuit. Block (404) creates a reference voltage for the comparator (405). The reference voltage can be zero such that the comparator (405) determines the polarity of the mutually induced first electrical signal. The output from the comparator is a digital signal indicating if the mutually induced first electrical signal is less than or greater than the threshold applied by block (404). This comparator output, a second electrical signal, represents the rotational position of the rotor relative to the stator and is supplied to the controller (400) to maintain synchronism between the armature excitation and the rotor position.

    • The present invention relates to control of synchronous machines. A sensorless control system for an electrical machine is provided comprising a rotor and a stator having one or more phase windings for generating a rotating stator magnetic field. The current in the phase windings is monitored to determine real and imaginary components of the current vector in a rotating reference frame, from which real and imaginary components of the emf vector rotating in the rotating reference frame can also be determined. The ratio of the real and imaginary emf components is calculated, and an angular position of the rotational emf vector is estimated from this ratio. An angular error signal indicative of the deviation of the estimated angular position from a desired position in line with the real axis of the rotating reference frame is determined, and the machine is controlled such that the error signal tends towards zero.
