PermanentmagnetAC(PMAC)machinesprovideauniquesetofadvantagesandopportunitiestodesignersofmodernmotioncontrolsystems.PMACmachinescanbedesignedinmanydifferentgeometriesasdiscussedinChapter2,andafewcommonexamplesareillustratedinFigure6-1.TheuseofpermanentmagnetstogeneratesubstantialairgapmagneticfluxwithoutexternalexcitationmakesitpossibletodesignPMACmachineswithunsurpassedefficiencycharacteristics.Suchefficiencyadvantagesarebecomingincreasinglyvaluableinmanypartsoftheworldwheremarketforcesandgovernmentalmandatesarefocusingincreasedattentiononreducedenergyconsumptioninmanytypesofelectricalequipment.Forexample,minimumenergyefficiencyrequirementsaregraduallybeingimposedbytheU.S.governmentduringthe1990sonmajorclassesofresidentialappliancesaswellasheating,ventilating,andairconditioning(HVAC)equipment[1].
Alternatively,thelowlossesmadepossiblebytheappropriateapplicationofpermanentmagnetscanbeusedtoachievemachinedesignswithimpressivelyhighvaluesofpowerdensityandtorque-to-inertia(Te/J)ratios[2].ThesecharacteristicsmakePMACmachineshighlyattractiveformanyactuatorandservoapplicationsthatdemandthefastestpossibledynamicresponse.

PMACmachinedrivesrepresenttheconvergenceofatleasttwodistinctthreadsofpermanentmagnetmachinedevelopment.Oneofthesethreadsistheearlydevelopmentofline-startPMACmotorswithembeddedrotorsquirrelcagewindingsdesignedforoperationdirectlyfromutility-suppliedACpower.WorkonthisspecialclassofhybridPMACinductionmachinedatesbacktothe1950s[3,4]usingAlnicomagnets.Thesemachineswerewidelyappliedinsomeimportantindustrialapplicationssuchastextilemanufacturinglinesthatrequirelargenumbersofmachinesoperatingatidenticalspeeds[5].

Finally,inthe1970s,thesetwodevelopmentpathsconvergedasPMACmachines(withoutrotorcages)werecombinedwithadjustablefrequencyinverterstoachievehigh-performancemotioncontrol[10].ThisapproachhadthedesirableeffectofeliminatingthedualdisadvantagesofhighrotorinertiaandbrushwearassociatedwithPMDCmotorcommutators.Theclassof"brushlessDCmotors"usingtrapezoidalPMACmotorswasdevelopedfirst[11]inordertotakeadvantageofthecontrolsimplificationsthatareachievablewiththisconfiguration,asdiscussedinmoredetailinSection6.3.Thishasbeenfollowedbytheevolutionofhigh-performancesinusoidalPMACmachinedrivesduringthelate1970sand1980swhichhavebeenmadepossiblebytherapidadvancesindigitalreal-timecontrolhardwareandvectorcontroltechnologyfirstappliedtoinductionmotors[12].
