The possibility of increasing overload capability and reducing power loss in a frequency-controlled synchronous electric drive operating in a continuous periodic mode is considered. A definition of a “continuous periodic mode” is given. A functional diagram of vector control system of synchronous electric drive is presented. The statement of a problem in the study of electric drives is formulated. A modeling method of a synchronous electric drive making it possible to recognize the maximum loads upon heating of a synchronous motor is described. Results of computer modeling of the continuous periodic operational mode of a salient pole motor with continuous and optimal regulation of armature magnetic flux are presented. The resource of synchronous motor is determined on the basis of the criterion of motor torque allowable upon heating. A comparative analysis of power loss of synchronous motor in the continuous periodic mode with continuous and optimal regulation of armature magnetic flux is carried out. The conclusion is drawn that the use of optimal regulation of armature magnetic flux in vector control systems of synchronous electric drives operating in continuous periodic mode is efficient. © 2016, Allerton Press, Inc.
