“Loss Minimization in Synchronous Motors and Study of their Operational and Thermal Performance”. Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, 164 pages, Thessaloniki, Greece, 1997.
The loss minimization problem in wound field cylindrical rotor synchronous motor drives is investigated. Also, the magnetic and thermal behaviour of the motor in the case of optimal efficiency operation
is considered.
The suggested loss minimization method is based on the air-gap flux weakening and attempt to
make the air-gap flux an increasing function of the load torque. This technique is easily implemented on
adjustable speed drives, which are inverter-fed. The efficiency improvement and the energy saving are
considerable when the motor operates at light load.

From the theoretical analysis, two loss minimization conditions are derived. The first loss minimization condition is known from the synchronous motor theory and its optimal power factor is equal to unity.
However, the absolute minimum loss results from the second condition with lagging optimal power factor. The existence of two loss minimization conditions and the fact that the absolute minimum is achieved
with the second condition are experimentally verified.
The loss minimization method is implemented selectively by a system of two search controllers
(SCs) or two loss model controllers (LMCs). The SCs measure the input power of the drive and adjust the
stator voltage and the excitation current, while search for the minimum input power. On the other hand,
the LMCs measure the speed and the armature current and determine the optimal stator voltage and the
optimal excitation current through the synchronous motor loss model. The reference speed can be used
instead of the actual speed. In this thesis a simple method has been developed for experimental determination of the LMCs parameters. From the experiments it is concluded that the LMCs performance is better than the SCs because LMCs outputs attain a steady state, while the SCs outputs oscillate around the
optimal air-gap flux value and cause undesirable torque disturbances.
The two-dimensional magnetic field is solved by the finite-element technique over the whole crosssection of the motor, in steady-state, by taking saturation into account. The program inputs are the field
current, the armature current and the phase angle between them. In this thesis, the dc field winding is replaced by a three-phase equivalent winding reflected to the stator side. The sinusoidal currents of this
winding excite a magnetic field of which the fundamental component is equivalent to the original. Upon
this approach, there is no relative motion between the rotor and stator. The analysis is applied to the 1kW synchronous motor of the experiments. Through the magnetic field solution, it is verified that the loss
minimization method leads to non-saturated operation.
The temperature field is calculated in steady state, assuming non-axial thermal heat flow. The program inputs are the thermal sources of the copper losses (measured experimentally) and iron losses (calculated from the distribution of the magnetic field). The temperature distribution is calculated for various
loads and speeds. It is proved that the temperature values under the loss minimization method are lower
than in the nominal flux operation. Also, it is noticeable that, although the stator copper losses are increasing, the temperature in the stator copper decreases.

In this paper, an improved efficiency control scheme for wind energy conversion systems (WECSs)
with squirrel cage induction generators is proposed. Thus, the power harvesting from the WECS is increased and additionally expansion of the exploitable wind speed region toward the lower speed range is
accomplished. The generator is connected to the power grid by means of two space-vector-controlled
back-to-back converters. A minimum ohmic loss (MOL) controller is introduced in order to minimize the
generator resistive loss that is accomplished by adjusting the d-axis stator current according to torque
conditions. The implementation of the proposed controller is easy and cost effective because neither additional control signals nor the knowledge of the generator loss model is required. The effectiveness of
MOL controller and its successful cooperation with two types of maximum power point tracking (MPPT)
controllers, which are employed to maximize the wind turbine output power, are experimentally verified.
The MPPT controller is implemented by using an adaptive search control and a fuzzy-logic-based control
technique, since both are independent of wind turbine characteristics and widely used. Selective experimental results are presented to demonstrate the resulting improvements of the suggested control scheme.

This paper presents the simulation of a switched reluctance drive system using a finite element based motional solver. The results are used to accurately compute the performance of the motor, including iron losses. A transient eddy current solver, including rotation, is employed to simulate motor performance. The phase voltages are controlled using a user-defined “control script” that dictates the voltage
across each phase winding of the motor, based on the instantaneous rotor position and phase current value. Powerful scripting within the finite element analysis environment enables the user to emulate the control algorithm being implemented in a real switched reluctance motor microcontroller. The rationale behind the iron loss formulation is also described and the physical origin of the flux variation in the different parts of the machine is explained. Thus, accurate loss results are obtained by processing the B-field

smooth transition between the control operations. The low torque ripple is achieved by controlling the
firing angles through simple formulas so as to minimize the pulsations of the total current in the commutation region. The smooth transition is attained since the conditions that determine the firing angles of
one operating mode are derived from the conditions of the other operating mode. The smooth transition
between motoring and braking operation is accomplished by means of a new control technique. The SRM
drive is modeled in Simulink environment and several simulation results are presented to validate the
feasibility of the proposed control scheme. Preliminary work of J-16.

Conf. ICEM’2008, Vilamoura, Portugal, Sept. 2008.
The paper describes a template-style front-end to a generic electromagnetic modeling tool, for the
analysis and optimization of Electrical Machines. A two and three-dimensional FEA model for a generator and motor can be created in minutes, using templates with 'fill in the blanks' style screens. Accurate
virtual prototypes can then be produced to help engineers provide answers on the performance of specific
machine designs rapidly, and perform searching 'what-if?' investigations to identify the design characteristics of the perfect machine. Optimization tools are also available within the Environment, enabling engineers to find the 'best' solution automatically. Equally important is that the Environment is structured to
allow creation and analysis of customised geometries, including special proprietary features.

Mademlis C. and Kioskeridis I., “A Fine-Tuning Regulator for High Performance Control
of Switched Reluctance Motor Drives”, Intern. Conf. MedPower’2008, Thessaloniki,
Greece, Nov. 2008.
This paper presents the design of a new fine tuning regulator that on-line adjusts the speed proportional-integral (PI) controller parameters and provides high dynamic performance of the switched reluctance motor drives. The parameters of the controller are on-line adjusted according to the load torque and
rotor speed. The control system is modelled as a single-input single output model and the real time estimation of the speed PI parameters is accomplished through a nonlinear compensation look-up table that
takes into account the influence of load torque and rotor speed variation. The real-time approach improves the robustness of the control system and compensates the influence of the nonlinear uncertainties
plus any manufacturing imperfections on the control behaviour of the motor. Moreover, the proposed fine
tuning controller is capable of maintaining the torque ripple at an acceptable level over a wide speed
range. Computer simulations of the switched reluctance motor drive dynamic response are employed so
as to verify the theoretical analysis and to validate the operational improvements. Preliminary work of J17.

2009.
This paper investigates the problem of the position control in switched reluctance motor drives. Advanced proportional-integral (PI) and proportional-differential (PD) controllers for the speed and position
control, respectively, are adopted. The parameters of the controllers are on-line fine-tuned according to
the load torque and rotor speed, for providing high dynamic performance and precise position control. In
order to improve the set-point tracking of the drive performance, a low-pass filter is included in the position controller. The proposed four-quadrant control scheme is based on the average torque control method. The turn-on and turn-off angles are on-line determined through simple formulas and the proposed fine
tuning regulator is capable of maintaining the torque ripple at an acceptable level over a wide speed
range. This is important since the position precision is highly influenced from the motor torque ripple.
Experimental results of the switched reluctance motor dynamic response are presented to verify the theoretical considerations and to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme. Preliminary

Mademlis C. and Kioskeridis I., “Control Design for Maximum Efficiency of a Variable
Speed Wind Energy Conversion System”, Intern. Conf. DISTRES’2009, Nicosia, Cyprus,
Dec. 2009.
This paper presents a control system for both tracking the wind turbine peak power operating point
and minimizing the generator power loss. Thus, maximum efficiency is achieved along the whole wind
energy conversion process. The generator is connected to the power network by means of a fully controlled frequency converter which consists of a pulse-width modulation (PWM) rectifier, an intermediate
dc-link circuit and a PWM inverter. Field oriented control is applied and two search controllers are introduced that control the d- and q-axis stator current components of the generator. The peak power point of
the wind turbine is determined through the one search controller by varying the q-axis stator component
and, through this, the generator speed. Thus, the speed reference of the generator is dynamically modified
according to the wind power. The power loss of the generator is minimized by controlling the fluxlinkage according to the rotor speed and the mechanical torque. This is implemented by another search
controller that controls the d-axis component of the stator current so that the generator power loss is minimized. For the implementation of the proposed control method the knowledge of the wind turbine parameters and the generator loss model are not required. The generator considered in this paper is a squirrel cage rotor induction machine. However, the proposed control method can be applied to permanent
magnet synchronous generator as well. Several simulation results are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control method and to demonstrate the operational improvements.

Conversion System with a PM Synchronous Generator”, Intern. Conf. MedPower’ 2010,
Agia Napa, Cyprus, Nov. 2010.
In this paper, a control strategy for a Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) is introduced aiming
in both maximum power operation of the wind turbine and minimum power loss of the electrical generator. The conventional configuration of ac-dc-ac topology for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator
(PMSG) is used. The PMSG is driven by a Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) rectifier, an intermediate dclink circuit and a PWM inverter for the connection to the utility grid. Field oriented control technique is
applied at the rectifier for the separate control of d- and q-axis stator current components of the PMSG.
For this purpose, two search controllers are utilized. One search controller regulates the q-axis stator current and through this the generator speed. Thus, the reference speed of the generator is dynamically modified according to the wind speed in order to maintain the wind turbine at its maximum power operating
point. The second search controller regulates the d-axis current component for controlling the excitation
flux of the generator, and therefore for minimizing the electrical loss of the PMSG. For the implementation of the above control method, the knowledge of neither the wind turbine parameters nor the generator
loss model is required. The proposed control method has been simulated in Matlab/Simulink software,
and several simulation results are presented in order to validate its effectiveness and the operational improvements.

a Variable Speed Wind Energy Conversion System”, 21th IEEE Intern. Symp. on Industrial
Electronics ISIE 2012, Hangzhou, China, May 2012.
This paper proposes a control strategy for Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECSs) aiming in
both maximum power harvesting from the wind turbine and minimum power loss of the electrical generator. Thus, maximum efficiency along the whole wind energy conversion process is achieved and additionally expansion of the exploitable wind speed region towards the lower-speed range is accomplished.
A squirrel cage induction generator connected to the power grid by means of two back-to-back converters
is used. Field oriented control is applied and a system of two Search Controllers (SCs) is introduced for
the control of the d- and q-axis stator current components of the generator. The maximum power at the
wind turbine is achieved through the one SC by adjusting the q-axis current and through this, the generator speed. Another SC is introduced in order to maximize the efficiency of the electrical generator by
controlling its flux-linkage. The dynamic performance of the system is improved by introducing control
loops that compensate the delayed response of the flux-linkage to the d-axis current component and provide improved torque control operation. Several experimental results are presented to demonstrate the
effectiveness and operational improvements of the proposed control system.

In this paper, a control method for a Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) utilizing a Squirrel
Cage Induction Generator (SCIG) is presented. Aims of the control are both maximum wind power harvesting and minimization of the SCIG power loss, thus achieving maximum pow¬er production on any
wind speed. The SCIG is connected to the utility grid through two back-to-back converters. The first
converter uses Field Oriented Control to regulate the speed and the excitation of the SCIG. The proposed
control system uses two Fuzzy-Logic Controllers that regulate the speed and excitation of the SCIG, implementing Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) and Loss Minimization by regulating the speed of
the generator and the excitation respectively. Thus, maximum power is extracted by the wind and additionally, power output is increased by reducing the core loss of the generator. In order to improve the
slow response time of the flux-linkage to the d-axis current an additional control loop has been introduced that improves the response time of the flux-link-age. Several experimental results are displayed
that validate the operational improvements of the proposed control scheme.

This paper presents a wind turbine simulator for laboratory testing of a wind energy conversion
drive train that includes an electric generator, gear-box, electromagnetic brake, power electronic converters and controllers. The simulator consists of a 5.5-kW induction generator which is driven by a variable
speed inverter and a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) that simulates the wind turbine power speed
characteristics. The simulator provides the required torque reference signal according to the wind speed
input and thus, it acts like a wind turbine to the energy conversion system. Moreover, the varia-tion of
wind direction and passive stall characteristics of the wind turbine could be simulated by incorporating
the above aerodynamic effects in the PLC control software. Thus, a Wind Energy Conversion System
(WECS) can be tested at the laboratory in wind steady-state and dynamic performance and also in standalone and grid connected configurations. The electric generator can be of any type of electric machines
and also various control techniques for the WECS can be applied. Thus, the aerodynamic effects of yaw
error, passive stall and wind turbulence on the power quality in stand-alone and grid connected wind generators can be examined. This paper reports the structure, operating principle of the developed simulator
and several experimental results are presented.

Mesemanolis A. and Mademlis C., “A Neural Network Based MPPT Controller for Variable Speed Wind Energy Conversion Systems”, Intern. Conf. MedPower’2012, Cagliari, Italy, Sept. 2012.
In this paper, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT)
controller for Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS) is proposed, that achieves fast and reliable
tracking of the optimum rotational speed of the turbine and accomplishes maximum power harvesting
from the incident wind. The proposed control system can be implemented on any WECS and requires
minimum training for the ANN as well as a small number of artificial neurons. During the training of the
ANN, the WECS needs to operate simultaneously with a wind measurement system, until a sufficient
amount of data is collected on all operating regions of the wind turbine and the wind turbine characteristics are determined. Next, the ANN is trained, having the rotational speed of the shaft and the power output of the generator as input signals. As a result, the wind turbine can be driven to the optimum rotor
speed very fast and with high precision so as the MPPT controller can follow the fast dynamics of the
wind speed. Several simulation results are presented for the validation of the effectiveness of the suggested MPPT control scheme and demonstrate the operational improvements.

comprises a wind turbine, a three-phase induction generator and two back-to-back power converters. The
WECS provides electric energy to the utility grid through an LCL filter. The self-adjustment of the induction generator parameters provides accuracy in the implementation of the field oriented control and therefore accomplishes optimal operation on the WECS. The proposed method is simple and, since it does not
require time consuming off-line laboratory experiments, it can be easily applied to any wind energy system that is already in operation. Several simulation results will be presented in order to validate the theoretical considerations and demonstrate the operational improvements of the proposed system.

A sensorless maximum efficiency control strategy for wind energy conversion systems (WECS)
with squirrel cage induction generators is presented. The developed control scheme provides optimal efficiency of the induction generator and maximum power extraction of the wind turbine. Additionally,
expansion of the exploitable wind speed region towards the lower-speed range is accomplished. A minimum electric loss controller (MEL) is introduced in order to minimize the generator electric loss and a
maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller is used in order to maximize the wind turbine output
power. The controllers determine the optimal d- and q- axis stator current components of the induction
generator through optimal conditions. Therefore, quick dynamic response of the wind energy system is
accomplished so as it can follow the fast changes of the incident wind. The implementation of the suggested control scheme is cost-effective because the measurement of the wind speed is not required.
Moreover, neither the loss model of the induction generator nor the characteristic curves of the wind turbine curves are required. The effectiveness and the operational improvements of the suggested optimal
control system have been verified experimentally.
