Abstract
The novel application of the C-dump converter topology to the PM Brushless DC motor has recently been introduced. The converter requires minimum number of devices, and therefore, it is a very attractive choice for the emerging high volume variable speed drives. A comprehensive dynamic analysis of the drive system is necessary before such a product can be introduced to the market. The complete dynamic model of this drive system, along with analysis and experimental verification of key modes of operations, are systematically developed and introduced in this paper. Experimental verification is performed on a 4 quadrant 1 horsepower laboratory prototype PM brushless motor drive. The study enables sizing of the required components of the drive system, and estimation of the maximum commutation torque ripple, and hence, the suitability of the drive system for a desired application.
