Drive Efficiency and Silence - How to Design High-Efficiency and Less Noisy Motor Drives

Low fidelity or ideal motor models are very useful for many aspects of a motor drive design. But what happens when we introduce spatial harmonics or nonlinear inductance? Does this impact our control bandwidth? What is the torque ripple from the spatial harmonics, will this cause NVH and can we reduce it with our control strategy? What about the efficiency of the complete motor drive while looking at the impact of switching speed or SVPWM vs DPWM? When to use a higher fidelity model set and what can be learned will be covered in this webinar. 

This webinar is part two of the webinar series Intelligent Use of Power Electronics to Drive the Industry.
