• Obtain power from electrical sources
• DC motors - Permanent Magnet or wound-field (shunt,
separately excited, compound, series)
• AC motors – Induction, Synchronous (wound –rotor, IPMSM,
SPMSM), brushless DC
• Selection of machines depends on many factors, e.g.:

Basic Components of Electric Drives –
Power Source
• Provides energy to electric motors
• Regulated (e.g: utility) or Unregulated (e.g. : renewable energy)
• Unregulated power sources must be regulated for high efficiency – use
power electronic converters
• DC source
• batteries
• fuel cell
• photovoltaic
• AC source
• single- or three- phase utility
• wind generator
11
Basic Components of Electric Drives –

• Provides a regulated power supply to motor
• Enables motor operation in reverse, braking and variable speeds
• Combination of power electronic converters
 Controlled rectifiers, inverters –treated as ‘black boxes’ with certain
transfer function
 More efficient – ideally no losses occur
 Flexible - voltage and current easily shaped through
switching control
 Compact
Several conversions possible: AC-DC , DC-DC, DC-AC, AC-AC

Basic Components of Electric Drives –
Control Unit
• Supervise operation
• Enhance overall performance and stability
• Complexity depends on performance requirement
• Analog Control – noisy, inflexible, ideally infinite bandwidth
• Digital Control – immune to noise, configurable, smaller
bandwidth (depends on sampling frequency)
• DSP/microprocessor – flexible, lower bandwidth, real-time
• DSPs perform faster operation than microprocessors
(multiplication in single cycle), complex estimations and
observers easily implemented
17
Basic Components of Electric Drives
– Component Selection
• Several factors affecting drive selection:
• Steady-state operation requirements
• nature of torque-speed profile, speed regulation, speed range, efficiency,
quadrants of operations, converter ratings
• Transient operation requirements
• values of acceleration and deceleration, starting, braking and reversing
performance
• Power source requirements
• Type, capacity, voltage magnitude, voltage fluctuations, power factor, harmonics
and its effect on loads, ability to accept regenerated power
• Capital & running costs
• Space and weight restrictions
• Environment and location
• Efficiency and reliability
18
DC or AC Drives?
DC Drives
AC Drives
(particularly Induction Motor)
Motor • requires maintenance
• heavy, expensive
• limited speed (due to mechanical
construction)
• less maintenance
• light, cheaper
• high speeds achievable (squirrel-
cage IM)
• robust
Control Unit Simple & cheap control even for
high performance drives
• decoupled torque and flux
control
• Possible implementation using
single analog circuit
Depends on required drive
performance
• complexity & costs increase with
performance
• DSPs or fast processors required in
high performance drives
Performance Fast torque and flux control Scalar control – satisfactory in some
applications
Vector control – similar to DC drives

Torque Equation for Rotating Systems
 Motor drives a load through a transmission system (eg. gears,
V-belts, crankshaft and pulleys)
 Load may rotate or undergo translational motion
 Load speed may be different from motor speed
 Can also have multiple loads each having different speeds,
some may rotate and some have translational motion

Components of Load Torque
• Load torque can be divided into:
• Friction torque – present at motor shaft and in various parts of
load.
• Viscous friction torque TV – varies linearly with speed (Tv
 m). Exists in lubricated bearings due to laminar flow of
lubricant
• Coulomb friction torque TC – independent of speed. Exists in
bearings, gears coupling and brakes.
• Windage torque Tw – exists due to turbulent flow of air or liquid.
• Varies proportional to speed squared (Tw  m
2).
• Mechanical Load Torque TL - torque to do useful mechanical
work.
30
Mechanical Load Torque
• Torque to do useful mechanical work TL –
depends on application.

Classification of Electrical Drives
36
• Group Drive(Shaft Drive)
• Individual Drive
• Multi-Motor Drive
Classification of Electrical Drives
37
Group Drive(Shaft Drive)
“If Several groups of Mechanisms or Machines are organized on one
shaft & driven by one motor, the system is called a group drive (Shaft
Drive)”
Disadvantages
• There is no flexibility, Addition of an extra machine to the main shaft is
difficult.
• The efficiency of the drive is low, because of the losses occurring in
several transmitting mechanisms.
• The complete drive system requires shutdown if the motor, requires
servicing or repair.
• The system is not very safe to operate
• The noise level at the work spot is very high.
Classification of Electrical Drives
38
Individual Drive
“If a single motor is used to drive a given mechanism &
it does all the jobs connected with load, the drive is
called an individual drive”
Examples
• Single Spindle drilling machine
• Lathe machines
Classification of Electrical Drives
39
Multi-Motor Drive
“In a Multi-Motor drive, each operation of the mechanism is
taken care of by a separate drive motor. The system contains
several individual drives, each of which is used to operate its
own mechanism”
Examples
• Metal cutting machine tool
• Rolling mills
• Travelling cranes
Dynamic Conditions of a
drive system
40
• Dynamic conditions occur in a electric drive system
when operating point changes from one steady state
condition to another, following a change introduced in
the system variables. This variables may be mechanical
such as speed, torque etc. or electrical such as
voltage, current etc.
• These conditions generally exist during starting,
braking and speed reversal of the drive.
• The dynamic conditions arise in a variable speed drive
when transition from one speed to another is required.
Dynamic Conditions of a
drive system
41
• The drive may also have transient behavior if there are
sudden changes of load, supply, voltage or frequency.
• The dynamic behavior of a drive has a close relation
to its stability. A drive is said to be stable if it can go
from one state of equilibrium to another following a
disturbance in one of the parameters of the system.
• Stability can be identified as either steady-state or
transient.
Dynamic Conditions of a drive
system
42
• The condition of stability depend on the operating
point.
The dynamics of the drive can be investigated using
the Torque balanceequation given by

The load torque occurring in mechanical system may be
Passiveoractive.
Passive torque
If the torque always opposes the direction of motion of
drive motor it is called a passive torque.
Active torque
Load torque which have the potential to drive the motor
under equilibrium condition are called active load
torque.
Motor T- characteristic – variation of motor torque with speed
with all other variables (voltage and frequency) kept constant.
Loads will have their own T- characteristics.

Steady State Stability
 Drives operate at steady-state speed (when Te = TL) only
if the speed is of stable equilibrium.
 A disturbance in any part of drive causes system speed to
depart from steady-state point.
 Steady-state speed is of stable equilibrium if:
 system will return to stable equilibrium speed when
subjected to a disturbance
 Steady-state stability evaluated using steady-state T-

Dynamic Conditions of a drive system 40 • Dynamic conditions occur in a electric drive system when operating point changes from one steady state condition to another, following a change introduced in the system variables. This variables may be mechanical such as speed, torque etc. or electrical such as voltage, current etc. • These conditions generally exist during starting, braking and speed reversal of the drive. • The dynamic conditions arise in a variable speed drive when transition from one speed to another is required.

Dynamic Conditions of a drive system 41 • The drive may also have transient behavior if there are sudden changes of load, supply, voltage or frequency. • The dynamic behavior of a drive has a close relation to its stability.
