In this dissertation harmonic current, harmonic torque originated at the load and harmonic torque originated at the motor, where modeled and treated via closed loop control. The dissertation propose a remedy for canceling harmonic current by placing the proposed adaptive feedforward controller (AFC) in parallel with the FOC current control. Similarly, harmonic torque load was canceled by proposing an AFC in parallel with the speed control loop. Harmonic torque originated in the motor mainly due to harmonic flux where canceled through the estimation of harmonic flux, which was achieved by a novel Minimal Parameter Harmonic Flux Estimator (MPHFE). The latter is formulated such that the inductance, resistance, and stator current and its derivative are not necessary for the estimation of the harmonic eflux. This was achieved by forcing the harmonic current induced by the harmonic flux component to zero through the combined action of a Field-Oriented Controller (FOC) and a feed-forward controller. Subsequently, the harmonic flux can be obtained directly from the estimated harmonic back-EMF without the involvement of other motor parameters. Finally, the estimated flux is used in conjunction with a comprehensive analysis of the motor harmonic torque to determine the stator current compensation to eliminate the torque harmonic. A systematic approach to assign the parameter of the AFC controller were developed in this dissertation. Furthermore, multiple experiments were conducted to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed control schemes harmonics.

Motors for the hybrid electric vehicle choose the concentrated winding method for high power density, which results in harmonic component in back emf (electromagnetic motive force) voltage. Such harmonic components and coupling voltage at high-speed range generate harmonic components in stator currents. The harmonic components also induce torque ripple and heat loss in stator of a motor. Therefore, the control performance, as well as power, efficiency deteriorate. In this paper, the harmonic suppression method is proposed to improve the control performance. The control scheme is constructed in parallel with the conventional current controller. Roughly speaking, the harmonic components are separated by the software digital filter and suppressed by the proposed harmonic current suppression scheme with zero harmonic command.

The requirements of an electrical machine (EM) in Electric- (EV) and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) are high power density, a stator and rotor field with low harmonic content and best acoustic behavior. Six-phase permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM) have significant benefits over conventional three-phase PMSMs, such as reduced current per inverter phase leg, less fundamental losses because of a better winding factor and increased fault tolerance. Despite their advantages, considering the same installation space, the torque per ampere increase of a six-phase PMSM is very marginal. Therefore, the main focus of this dissertation lies in increasing the power density of the multiphase electric drive, where optimizations and investigations are done on a system level. System level simulation models, which consist of the power electronics, different control strategies and the electrical machines are developed and studied. Considering the electrical and mechanical phase shift between the two three-phase winding sets, different winding concepts of the sixphase EM are developed, in an effort to gain a better understanding of their advantages and disadvantages. Detailed analyses are performed, in order to understand the sources and influences of the space harmonics and high frequency inverter-induced time harmonics on the losses and performance of the EM. In particular, this dissertation will examine the EM torque, iron losses, magnet losses and copper losses for both inverter switched currents and sinusoidal currents supply.
