Synchronous Machine (Salient Pole)

Hello,

I would like to upgrade the existing Synchronous Machine (Salient Pole) model in PLECS (three-phase version) to a six-phase generator model.

My goal is to build a Full Voltage-Behind-Reactance (VBR) model that can:

  1. Consider mutual leakage inductances between the two three-phase stator sets,

  2. Allow neutral point modeling, and

  3. Include a field voltage terminal (Vf) for excitation control.

Could you please advise how to implement or extend the current PLECS machine model to support a six-phase Full VBR structure with these features?

Thank you.

While machine models in PLECS are open and modifiable, there is not a simple upgrade path to novel machine types: the entire machine model must be developed as whole based upon an underlying analytical foundation. If you have an analytical reference and aren’t sure how to implement your model, you are welcome to post the reference, your current model implementation, and any specific questions.

You may also want to review the Six-Phase PMSM demo model that is part of the TI C2000 Target Support Package.
