Three-Phase PMLSM Drive

This example shows how to control the position in a three-phase permanent magnet linear synchronous machine (PMLSM) drive. The Control subsystem uses a PI-based cascade control structure with an outer position control loop, a speed control loop, and two inner current control loops. A controlled three-phase converter feeds the PMLSM. The simulation uses step references. The Scopes subsystem contains scopes that allow you to see the simulation results.

This plot shows the requested and measured position for the test, as well as the linear speed in the electric drive.

Results from Real-Time Simulation

This example has been tested on a Speedgoat Performance real-time target machine with an Intel® 3.5 GHz i7 multi-core CPU. This model can run in real time with a step size of 50 microseconds.
