Figure 3.48 – Simulation diagram for BPMS motor in synchronous reference frame attached to<br />

rotor.<br />

The stationary model was essentially a linearly independent, orthogonal version of the phase-<br />

variable model; clearly, the rotor frame model is more complex. The first thing to note is that the<br />

rotor angle r has disappeared from the model. This is because the model is in the rotor reference<br />

frame, which is defined by r . With that said, it is clear that this is the same model for the<br />

general reference frame (and in that case, the angular velocity ω would be that of the general<br />

frame). This model is often called the synchronous reference frame because it rotates<br />

synchronously with the stator electrical quantities (which are said to be at the synchronous<br />

frequency, ω). 28 The disappearance of r can be further understood by recalling two facts<br />

presented earlier: (1) the bEMF is entirely in the q-circuit (that is, e is entirely along the q axis,<br />

Recall the discussion from Part I regarding electrical and mechanical measures. In the general case the<br />

electrical and mechanical speeds are not the same, even if they are expressed in the same measure. This is<br />

simply because the electrical (stator) and mechanical (rotor) quantities are separate dynamic subsystems—<br />

nothing forces them to be the same. In an induction motor, the rotor (at speed r ) slips past the stator<br />

electrical quantities (which are at the synchronous speed e<br />

), but in a synchronous motor (ignoring<br />

transients) the electrical and mechanical speeds are the same by necessity. The importance of this<br />

discussion is that in Chapter 5, current regulation will be performed in the “synchronous frame” as a part of<br />

rotor-oriented FOC, but the properties of that current controller are applicable even to FOC that is not<br />

rotor-oriented, and to electrical circuits that are not motors. For this reason, the figure caption identifies the<br />

model as existing in a synchronous reference frame, which happens to be attached to the rotor.<br />
