Abstract
- This paper presents an application of model predictive control to a variable-speed drive system operating in the multi-megawatt range. The variable-speed drive system comprises a synchronous machine fed by a line-commutated rectifier and a load-commutated inverter. The control task is to regulate the dc-link current, and hence the machine torque, to ensure the machine speed follows a given reference. The proposed control approach is model predictive control, where both the rectifier- and inverter-firing angles are considered as control inputs. The nonlinear model predictive torque controller has been implemented on an embedded system and applied in an industrial-scale pilot plant installation. The experiments show the successful operation of model predictive control on a plant with more than 48 MW power. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
