Software-based adaptive control system for electric motors and generators

摘要

A control system for motors, generators and other electric machines that improves machine performance by dynamically adapting to changes. These changes may be in user inputs, machine operating conditions and/or machine operating parameters. The control system can take advantage of more independent machine parameters. That gives greater freedom to optimize and allows motors and generators to perform better than bigger, heavier machines, particularly more efficiently. The control system is software-based. So standard interfaces allow the control system to be improved and updated without changing hardware. This adaptive control system improves performance in a wide variety of motor and generator applications, particularly those that need high efficiency over varying conditions.
