Description

Motor Driving Apparatus The present invention relates to a motor driving device, and more specifically, to an open-end winding type motor driving device in which an inverter is connected to each end of the motor winding. Generally, one end of each phase winding included in the motor is connected to a single inverter, and the other ends are connected to each other to form a Y-connection. When driving the motor, the switching element in the inverter is turned on/off by pulse width modulation control, and torque is generated by applying line voltage to the windings of the Y-connected motor to generate alternating current. Since the fuel efficiency (or electric efficiency) of eco-friendly vehicles, such as electric vehicles that utilize torque generated by such motors as power, is determined by the power conversion efficiency between the inverter and the motor, it is important to maximize the power conversion efficiency of the inverter and the efficiency of the motor to improve fuel efficiency. The efficiency of an inverter-motor system is primarily determined by the voltage utilization rate of the inverter; if the vehicle's operating point, determined by the relationship between motor speed and torque, is formed in a range of high voltage utilization, the vehicle's fuel efficiency can be improved. However, increasing the number of windings to boost maximum torque causes the high-voltage utilization region to move further away from the low-torque region, which is the vehicle's primary operating point, potentially leading to poor fuel efficiency. Furthermore, designing the motor to include the primary operating point within the high-voltage utilization region for the sake of fuel efficiency may result in limitations on the motor's maximum torque, which can lead to reduced acceleration performance. To solve this problem, an Open End Winding (OEW) motor driving technique has been proposed in the field of technology, in which two inverters are driven by connecting an inverter to each end of the motor winding instead of short-circuiting one end of the motor winding through a Y connection. This open-end winding motor driving technique has the advantage of being able to increase phase voltage to improve voltage utilization and enable high output compared to the method of driving a conventional Y-connected motor. However, in open-end winding motor driving techniques, when a common DC power source is applied to inverters connected to each end of the motor winding, the zero-phase component voltage cannot be controlled to be zero on average over the inverter switching period, which can generate common-mode current. This common-mode current flows through the motor windings and acts as losses such as copper loss and iron loss, which reduce motor efficiency and, in severe cases, can cause the motor system to burn out. The matters described above as background technology are intended only to enhance understanding of the background of the present invention and should not be construed as an acknowledgment that they constitute prior art already known to those skilled in the art.
