  • Difference Between Bipolar Drives and Unipolar Drives for Stepper Motors
    WHITE PAPER DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BIPOLAR DRIVES AND UNIPOLAR DRIVES FOR STEPPER MOTORS orking on a motorized development requires some knowledge about motors and controllers. This article Wis focused on the stepper motors which is a type of brushless DC motor with a high number of poles. This technology is generally driven in open loop without any feedback sensor, meaning the current is typically applied on the phases without knowing the rotor position. The rotor moves to be aligned with the stator magnetic flux, then the current can be supplied to the next phase. We will consider two ways to supply current in the coil: bipolar way and unipolar way. In this article, we will explain the differences of bipolar and unipolar motors and driving methods. We will show the advantages and limits of both technologies. Let’s take an example of a four step, permanent magnet stepper motor (see figure 1). The rotor is made with a one pole pair magnet, and the stator is composed of two phases, Phase A and Phase B. • In unipolar: the current always flows in the same direction. Each coil is dedicated to one current direction, meaning either the coil A+ or the coil A- is powered. The coils A+ and A- are never powered together. • In bipolar: the current can flow in both directions in all coils. The phases A+ and A- are powered together. A bipolar motor requires one coil minimum per phase and unipolar motor Figure 1. 4-Step Stepper Motor requires two coils minimum per phase. Let’s review both options in more detail.

  • Cogging Torque Reduction in Brushless Motors by a Nonlinear Control Technique
    Article Cogging Torque Reduction in Brushless Motors by a Nonlinear Control Technique Pierpaolo Dini and Sergio Saponara * Department of Information Engineering, University of Pisa, Via G. Caruso 16, 56127 Pisa, Italy; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 1 April 2019; Accepted: 9 June 2019; Published: 11 June 2019 Abstract: This work addresses the problem of mitigating the effects of the cogging torque in permanent magnet synchronous motors, particularly brushless motors, which is a main issue in precision electric drive applications. In this work, a method for mitigating the effects of the cogging torque is proposed, based on the use of a nonlinear automatic control technique known as feedback linearization that is ideal for underactuated dynamic systems. The aim of this work is to present an alternative to classic solutions based on the physical modification of the electrical machine to try to suppress the natural interaction between the permanent magnets and the teeth of the stator slots. Such modifications of electric machines are often expensive because they require customized procedures, while the proposed method does not require any modification of the electric drive. With respect to other algorithmic-based solutions for cogging torque reduction, the proposed control technique is scalable to different motor parameters, deterministic, and robust, and hence easy to use and verify for safety-critical applications. As an application case example, the work reports the reduction of the oscillations for the angular position control of a permanent magnet synchronous motor vs. classic PI (proportional-integrative) cascaded control. Moreover, the proposed algorithm is suitable to be implemented in low-cost embedded control units.

Mannan Chowdhury Abstract— This paper is designed and developed to have the general as well as basic knowledge about the modern electronic device named ‘Stepper motor’. A step motor can be viewed as a synchronous AC motor with the number of poles (on both rotor and stator) in- creased, taking care that they have no common denominator. Additionally, we have discussed about its characteristics, classification, oper- ation, advantages and electric magnetic effects.

Stepper systems are economical to implement, intuitive to commentators.

  • Energy Harvesting Using AC Machines with High Effective Pole Count,” Power Electronics Specialists Conference, P 2229-34, 2008
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Department of Electrical Engineering ENERGY HARVESTING USING AC MACHINES WITH HIGH EFFECTIVE POLE COUNT A Dissertation in Electrical Engineering by Richard Theodore Geiger 2010 Richard Theodore Geiger Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2010 ii The dissertation of Richard Theodore Geiger was reviewed and approved* by the following: Heath Hofmann Associate Professor, Electrical Engineering Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee George A. Lesieutre Professor and Head, Aerospace Engineering Mary Frecker Professor, Mechanical & Nuclear Engineering John Mitchell Professor, Electrical Engineering Jim Breakall Professor, Electrical Engineering W. Kenneth Jenkins Professor, Electrical Engineering Head of the Department of Electrical Engineering *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT In this thesis, ways to improve the power conversion of rotating generators at low rotor speeds in energy harvesting applications were investigated. One method is to increase the pole count, which increases the generator back-emf without also increasing the I2R losses, thereby increasing both torque density and conversion efficiency. One machine topology that has a high effective pole count is a hybrid “stepper” machine. However, the large self inductance of these machines decreases their power factor and hence the maximum power that can be delivered to a load. This effect can be cancelled by the addition of capacitors in series with the stepper windings. A circuit was designed and implemented to automatically vary the series capacitance over the entire speed range investigated. The addition of the series capacitors improved the power output of the stepper machine by up to 700%.

However, compared to the traditional centralized driving pattern, cars adopting a distributed direct driving pattern have higher drive efficiency and more stable handling. Given this background, a kind of direct-drive outer rotor motor with 40 poles and 42 slots applied for middle or low speed electric cars was designed. The core of this study included the electromagnetic analysis and structural design of the motor. Firstly, the material and dimension parameters of the stator and rotor were selected and calculated by the traditional method. The air-gap length and pole-arc coefficient were optimized using an RMxprt module, which was developed using the equivalent magnetic circuit method. Then, a two-dimensional finite- element model was established using ANSYS Maxwell. The magnetic field and torque characteristics of the model were then analyzed. Results show that the design of the motor is reasonable. In addition, a method for reducing the torque ripple was proposed and verified by simulation.

  • A UNIPOLAR INVERTER DRIVE for a CAGE INDUCTION MOTOR By
    A UNIPOLAR INVERTER DRIVE FOR A CAGE INDUCTION MOTOR by PATRICK REGINALD PALMER B.Sc.(Eng.), A.C.G.I., A.M.I.E.E. Thesis submitted to the University of London for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and for the Diploma of Imperial College Department of Electrical Engineering Imperial College of Science and Technology September 1985 1 ABSTRACT # This thesis describes a novel pulse-width-modulated, voltage fed, unipolar inverter drive scheme for a squirrel-cage induction motor, which enables effective shoot through protection. Standard PWM techniques were employed. The proposed scheme was tested using standard ♦ two pole, totally enclosed, fan cooled, three phase induction motors, rated at 4 kW and 415 Vac. Simple alterations are required to the motor windings, and these were made by the manufacturer. * A review of inverter technology covers the principal categories of inverters, switching devices and detail circuitry. The modes of operation of unipolar schemes are discussed and their advantages and disadvantages # identified. A description of the experimental drive and its operating details follows, reference being made to measured current waveforms. Measured torque-speed and efficiency-speed * graphs are presented and discussed. For a more detailed examination of the performance a theoretical model of the entire inverter-induction motor scheme is developed. The model for the motor is based on a # mutually coupled coils approach. The predictions confirm the explanation of the operation given previously. Theoretical comparisons are made between the proposed 2 unipolar drive and equivalent conventional inverter ^ drives. There is then an extensive study of the inverter under fault conditions, where it is shown that the behaviour of the inverter under fault conditions is predictable and ^ controllable.
