Maps

Positioning and objective

The aim of the test “Characterization - Model - Motor - Maps” is to give maps along the three dimensions, If-Jd-Jq, for characterizing the 3-Phase synchronous machines with wound field.

These maps allow for predicting the behavior of the electrical rotating machine at a system level.

In this test, engineers will find a system integrator and / or control-command tool adapted to their needs and able to provide accurate maps ready to be used in system simulation software like Activate.

The performance of the machine in steady state can be deduced from the results obtained in this test in association with the drive and control mode to be considered.
