Algebraic method for synthesising control systems for electric drives with subordinate regulation under elastic mechanical connections

Article preview

The generation of accelerations and dynamic torques in electric drives with subordinate control leads to elastic deformations in transmission elements significantly affecting the motion law of the output (actuating) shaft. Therefore, in-depth study of the dynamics of electromechanical systems incorporating elastic connections receives particular attention. The dynamics of such electric drives are investigated using logarithmic frequency characteristics, based on which the feedback (FB) coefficients and transfer functions of corrective elements are determined to optimise transient processes. ...

Dynamics of roller-cone drilling rig drives

Article preview

Operational experience with drilling rigs of the SBSh and BASh types demonstrates that during operation, vibrations occur in the drill string, which are transmitted to the rig platform. These vibrations limit the permissible level of technological parameters and ultimately reduce the rig's productivity. The vibration level can be reduced by adjusting technological parameters, as well as by improving the design of the rig's rotation-feed mechanism. Vibrations of the rig's centre of mass are caused by disturbance introduced into this system by the drill string. ...

Thyristor DC regulator for the rotary drive of a drilling rig

Article preview

Thyristor DC regulators, or, as they are called, DC pulse converters, in control systems containing electrical machines, prove to be more convenient than adjustable thyristor rectifiers in a number of cases. The use of controlled rectifiers is often complicated by distortion of the supply voltage waveform. ...

On the improvement of unregulated electric drives for mining combines

Article preview

There is no consensus on the optimal dynamic parameters of electric motors used to drive coal and tunnelling combines. It is known that the operating mode graphs of these machines are characterised by extreme irregularity and obey only probabilistic laws. ...

Asynchronous motor with series capacitors under periodic loading

Article preview

The loads of mining machine drives are characterised by significant irregularity and, as correlation analysis of the operating modes of extraction and tunnelling combines demonstrates, contain periodic components with a frequency range of 0.5–20 Hz. In extensive mine networks, cutter-loader electric motors often cannot stably sustain a load equal to their rated power. ...

Study of capacitor braking of squirrel-cage induction motors using an analogue computer

Article preview

In electric drive systems, capacitive braking of squirrel-cage induction motors is employed either autonomously or in combination with other operating modes. The braking torque on the motor shaft, depending on the circuit configuration and initial conditions, arises either from machine self-excitation, capacitor discharge, or a combination of both effects simultaneously. ...

Vector control of AC machines

Article preview

Vector control of AC machines differs from conventional frequency drive control systems in that the mutual position of generalised electromagnetic quantity vectors is taken into account when generating control signals (the voltage vector). The rationale for such consideration becomes apparent upon analysing the expressions for electromagnetic torque. ...

Control of direct frequency conversions from AC signals in block vector regulation systems for induction drives

Article preview

Based on the principle of output voltage formation, direct frequency converters are divided into two main types: thyristor-based direct frequency converters with natural commutation (DFC-NC) and thyristor-based direct frequency converters with forced commutation (DFC-FC). In DFC-NC, the output frequency is formed through natural commutation within a half-cycle of the output voltage. ...

Structural diagrams of frequency-controlled electric drives based on synchronous machines with vector control

Article preview

The control of electromagnetic transients in variable frequency drives based on synchronous machines can be achieved by applying vector control principles. The fundamental concept of vector control involves transitioning from natural electromagnetic stator variables - components of the generalised stator current and voltage vectors in stationary stator coordinates - to new variables representing components of these same vectors in rotating coordinate systems. ...

Control of a thyristor converter for a synchronous motor in main ventilation fan drives

Article preview

Main ventilation fan installations at mining enterprises represent the most energy-intensive consumers. Significant energy wastage and low efficiency of ventilation systems are attributed to substantial deviations between actual ventilation regimes and design parameters. This occurs because main ventilation fans are selected for the entire operational lifespan of the enterprise based on ultimate maximum design values of gas emission, explosive quantity, production volume, workforce numbers, etc. Consequently, the determination of fan operating modes for mine ventilation networks often proves insufficiently precise. ...

Rotation drive system for ball mills using the DFC-SM (Direct Frequency Converter - Synchronous Motor) configuration

Article preview

In certain cases involving the mechanisation of maintenance and auxiliary operations related to ball mills, direct frequency converters with a limited output frequency range are employed. These operate in short-term duty modes that do not require optimal converter output voltage waveform or high precision in maintaining thyristor firing angles. On the other hand, such devices typically must meet enhanced requirements regarding noise immunity and reliability, as they are installed in industrial premises with high levels of electromagnetic interference. ...
