Abstract

This objective of this paper is to minimize the torque ripple content of Permanent Magnet Brushless DC motors (PMBLDC) by using an Asymmetric Cascaded Multilevel Inverter (ACMI). Torque ripple reduction in BLDC motor has been main concern of the drive system. The BLDC motor is fed from the Asymmetric Cascaded Multilevel Inverter where the rotor position is the input. The proposed system is an effective replacement for the conventional method, which has a high torque ripple. The usage of BLDC enhances various performance factors ranging from higher efficiency, high power density, and low maintenance and less noise. This paper presents a mathematical model of BLDC motor and shows the values of various technical parameters using MATLAB/SIMULINK.
