A Study on the Development of Sensorless Drive System for Brushless DC Motor of Electrical Vehicle

Generally, brushless DC motor(BLDCM) driving system uses hall sensors or encoders as the mechanical position or speed sensors. It is necessary to achieve the informations of rotor position for driving trapezoidal type brushless DC motor without any position sensor. This paper proposes a sensorless driving system with rotor absolute position detector circuit which acquires both commutate phase and commutate time by analyzing motor phase voltages. Proposed system is applied to a 10k[W] rating motor which actually used in electrical vehicles of HONDA co.,ltd. The experimental results will show the validity of the proposed system and the practical use of proposed sensorless drive algorithm.
