Detailed Documentation

This simulation of a PMSM FOC (Field-Oriented Control) module serves as an educational resource for engineers and researchers seeking to deepen their understanding of motor control systems. The implementation typically includes Clarke and Park transformations for converting three-phase quantities to rotating reference frames, PI controllers for current regulation, and space vector modulation for inverter control. Through this simulation environment, users can investigate PMSM FOC performance under various operating conditions, including different load torques, speed references, and parameter variations. The simulation allows experimentation with control parameters such as proportional-integral gains, switching frequencies, and sampling times, enabling observation of dynamic responses including torque ripple, current harmonics, and speed tracking accuracy. By analyzing simulation results through scope displays and data logging features, users gain insights into FOC algorithm behavior, including dq-axis current decoupling performance and flux weakening operation. This practical simulation tool enhances understanding of fundamental FOC concepts like coordinate transformations, current loop bandwidth requirements, and pulse-width modulation strategies, providing a foundation for real-world motor drive implementations and control system optimization.
