Abstract:

Recently, BLDC motors have become very popular in wide application areas. The BLDC motor does not have a mechanical commutation, and is, consequently, more reliable than the classic DC motor. In recent years, with the increasing number of nonlinear loads drawing nonsinusoidal current, power quality has become a serious problem; hence an optimal control scheme must ensure the desired motor behavior and an undistorted current waveform in the network. This paper presents a new simplified control scheme for the BLDC motor, eliminating the disadvantages of the classic control scheme, and in addition keeping the source currents waveforms near sinusoidal, according to the standards.
