Abstract :
This study deals with the fault tolerant vector control strategies of a five-phase permanent-magnet (PM) machine. The analysis is focused on the effect of accessible neutral point under faulty conditions. Open circuit fault of one and two phases are considered, and proper control strategies are proposed to reduce the amplitude of currents in the remaining healthy phases. Simulations under both healthy and faulty conditions have been undertaken, and the effect of accessible neutral point on current amplitudes and torque ripple is evaluated.
