Abstract
This paper investigates a cup-rotor permanent-magnet doubly fed machine (CRPM-DFM) for extended-range electric vehicles (EREVs). The topology and operating principle of the powertrain system based on CRPM-DFM are introduced. Then, the mathematical model of CRPM-DFM is established and the feedback linearization control of CRPM-DFM is given to realize the decoupling control of flux and torque. Moreover, the torque characteristic of CRPM-DFM is analyzed and the load torque boundaries with sinusoidal steady-state solution of CRPM-DFM is deduced. In addition, the MTPA control is derived to improve the efficiency of CRPM-DFM, and the efficiency of CRPM-DFM regarding various operating modes is investigated. Furthermore, the speed optimization strategy of ICE is proposed to reduce fuel consumption. Finally, the driving performance and fuel economy of the powertrain system are verified by simulation.
