Abstract: A method is described of regulating the instantaneous electromagnetic torque of a polyphase rotating electrical machine equipped with stator and/or rotor windings supplied by a voltage and a current generated by an inverter formed of switches whose switching is controllable. The method comprises a step of commanding the switching of the switches of the inverter using the fundamental frequency of the voltage generated by the inverter and a form of synchronous pulse width modulation configured as a function of an input set point, and a step of calculating the input set point from an instantaneous torque set point at each regulation time. The method further comprises a step of determining the time interval between two successive regulation times so that the time interval corresponds to an integer multiple of the period of oscillation of the instantaneous torque of the machine.

Abstract: The method of determining the stopped angular position of a rotor comprises the following steps: a) applying a sequence of successive voltage vectors to the terminals of the windings of the stator, said sequence including first and second voltage vectors adapted to modify the electrical characteristics of the windings and a third voltage vector adapted to cancel out the torque created by applying the first and second voltage vectors, b) determining a response signal from all of the windings to application of the first and second voltage vectors, and c) establishing the angular position of the rotor with an uncertainty of ±90° from the signals determined in the step b).

Abstract: A method is described for regulating the average electromagnetic torque of a polyphase rotating electrical machine, supplied with a polyphase voltage and a polyphase current that are generated by an inverter. The method comprises a step of controlling the machine, using an exact response control process to do this, a step of determining the value of the harmonics of the voltage and/or the current which are generated by the inverter, and a step of calculating the instantaneous torque set point as a function of the value of the harmonics and an average torque set point, so as to produce an instantaneous torque set point suitable for limiting the difference between the average of the instantaneous electromagnetic torque, between two successive regulation times, and said average torque set point.

Abstract: A method of regulating a rotating electrical machine includes a preparatory step of determining a discrete voltage control law for the machine. The discrete control voltage to be applied at each sampling time is determined in the form of a first term corresponding to free evolution of the state of the machine in the absence of control, between the preceding sampling time and the current sampling time, and a second term dependent on the set point torque and a set point for the magnetic energy consumed by the machine. The method further includes, at each sampling time, a step of determining, with the aid of the discrete control law, the control voltage to be applied to the machine for the torque of the machine to reach the set point torque and the magnetic energy consumed by the machine to correspond to the set point magnetic energy.
