Multiphase machines are widely used in electric ship propulsion systems, and the fault-tolerant control of multiphase machines is a very popular research topic. This paper proposes a Fuzzy Logic Vector Control (FLVC) strategy for a 15-phase induction machine (15PIM), which is based on the Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) and Indirect Field-Oriented Control (IFOC). The FLVC is tested on a 15PIM with concentrated stator windings in MATLAB/Simulink, and the simulation results demonstrate that FLVC has excellent fault-tolerant performance under open-phase conditions, as well as a good performance under healthy conditions.

Efficient power generation techniques used in a modern aircraft are described in the form of a High Voltage Variable Frequency Starter Generator. Its advantages in enabling an All-Electric aircraft are discussed. Machine Design aspects of such a system are obtained from detailed analysis of the output equation of a high speed rotating machine. Case studies are taken by varying various parameters of the equation and results obtained are compared graphically. New and important conclusions derived from the study are summarized.

In this paper, a new generic problem formulation dedicated to railway electrification systems is proposed. This formulation meets the needs for evolutivity of modern simulation tools by using meta-models for the railway network components. This approach has been applied to develop a new general-purpose electrified railway simulator. As an example, a DC electrification system has been simulated and the results compared to those of a classical simulator for validation purpose. A comparison of different resolution algorithms is also presented as a result of the possibilities offered by the new simulator.

This paper presents a new approach to design parallelized power inverters used in More Electrical Aircraft equipment. Dimension-based analytical modelling of building components are described and their use to achieve the optimized design is presented. The results help choosing, among various solutions, which is the optimal (minimizing the global mass) parallelization strategy of two power inverters.

The will to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, the desire for independence from fossil fuels and increasing renewable sources of electrical energy has driven the development of electrified propulsion systems for vehicles in recent years. Despite a significant increase in driving range with the introduction of lithium ion technology, the storage of electrical energy in the vehicle still is the biggest challenge. This paper provides an overview of state of the art battery and range extension technology. Furthermore, it shows the key issues in range extender development. Finally, a fuel cell range extender working with hydrogen is introduced which is under development in the public funded project “BREEZE!” with partners from industry and research institutions.

This paper presents the implementation of a surface mounted permanent magnet machine for use as an aerospace starter/generator. The application requires a starting torque significantly exceeding the maximum generator torque, as well as a fail-safe design that can withstand short-circuits. These requirements conflict and the impact on basic inverter and machine performance is analyzed. A machine is designed and analyzed in detail, highlighting winding and rotor eddy-current loss effects. The machine is manufactured and the basic performance is tested to confirm the models.

Tatsuhito Saito, K. Kondo
This paper deals with a frequency domain based energy management controller for energy storage devices (ESD). This paper presents a disturbance observer that estimates and compensates the loss of the ESD to keep stored energy of the ESD in an appropriate range. The authors use a disturbance observer to estimate the loss because it is difficult to make a model of the loss of the ESD. Simulation results show the loss observer is able to keep stored energy of the ESD near the reference. As the result, it is able to use smaller capacity of the ESD by avoiding over-discharge.

This paper presents considerations for the design of high performance, interior permanent magnet machines for traction applications. These machines will be designed to reach the FreedomCar 2020 targets set by the US Department of Energy for the year 2020 for traction machines, considering both concentrated and distributed wound designs. The paper presents a trade-off study of a wide range of motor designs with the main focus on the number of rotor poles and stator slots. The results from this investigation are then used to achieve an optimal design in terms of the target requirements, as these are introduced in a logical sequence.

West Japan Railway Company (JR WEST) has been developing battery-powered trains that are intended to improve energy saving for diesel cars in non-electrified sections. In our development, the battery system can be connected directly to the inverter due to its voltage. Simple circuit structure can be expected. We confirmed the possibility of the system by running test. In addition, we carried out thermal simulation and grasped heat characteristics as a next step. In this paper, we introduce the characteristics of our system, the results of running tests and thermal simulation.
