The proposed method is capable of evaluating the BDFRG performance at the design stage because the terminal voltage can be predicted through the MC and the torque can be calculated from the EC. The MC is used to calculate the air gap flux density so that the flux linkage can be further obtained for the calculation of the machine performance using the EC and a set of particular operating conditions. The integration of the EC and MC provides a rapid analysis for a direct connection between the physical dimensions and the machine performances, including torque, mechanical power, electric power, and efficiency. The proposed analytical method is applied to two BDFRG designs. One is a manufactured prototype. Finite element analysis and experiments are used to verify the analytical results.

Thus is aimed at use in distributed generation. The controller uses a system model to predict the system behavior at each sampling instant. The voltage vector generating least power ripples will then be selected according to a cost function and applied during the next sampling period, thus flexible power regulation can be achieved. In addition, the influences of one-step delay in digital implementation is investigated and compensated using a model based prediction scheme. Furthermore, a switching frequency reduction algorithm is developed by adding a nonlinear constraint to the cost function, which is a significant advantage in higher-power applications. The effectiveness of the proposed MPC strategy was verified numerically by using MATLAB/Simulink, and validated experimentally using a laboratory prototype.
