Summary

An efficient industrial development process of customized variable speed drive systems is today preferably assisted by modern and efficient numerical calculation methods. This allows that different electronic circuit versions of the power stack interacting with novel control strategies as well as innovative motor topologies, novel winding schemas and advanced material properties can be investigated with respect to the complete drive system. Fortunately, different case studies on various drive systems can be performed without excessive prototyping in advance, whereby costs are kept as low as possible.

Zusammenfassung

Der industrielle Entwicklungsprozess von kundenspezifischen drehzahlveränderlichen elektrischen Antrieben wird heutzutage vorteilhaft durch moderne, effiziente numerische Rechenverfahren unterstützt. Dies ermöglicht nun, dass einerseits der Einsatz von diversen elektrischen Schaltungsvarianten des Leistungsteils mitsamt neuartigen Regelungsstrategien und andererseits innovative Motortopologien, neue Wicklungsanordnungen und verbesserte Materialeigenschaften im Zusammenwirken mit dem kompletten Antriebssystem untersucht werden können. Unterschiedliche Studien über diverse Ausführungen von elektrischen Antrieben können ohne den Bau von Prototypen durchgeführt werden, wodurch die Entwicklungskosten so gering wie möglich gehalten werden können.
