ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a system for controlling a motor, and more particularly to a system for controlling a motor, for removing speed ripples generated when controlling the motor and noise generated when driving the same, wherein the speed ripples are caused by loads generated when driving a single rotary compressor.
2. Description of the Related Art
Typically, in order to control a motor, there is a need for a motor control system to recognize speed information or magnetic flux information of the motor. A conventional motor control system has adapted a speed sensor, such as a resolver or pulse encoder, or a magnetic flux sensor to recognize the speed information and magnetic flux information, but these sensors have difficulty in their installation and are greatly affected by their installation environment, thereby unavoidably increasing the cost of production.
Therefore, there have been increasingly developed a variety of control systems for controlling the speed of the motor without using the speed sensor and the magnetic flux sensor. As shown in

However, a single rotary compressor has load characteristics variable with a rotation angle of a motor as shown in
FIG. 2

, such that speed characteristics of the motor are plotted on a time axis (t) as shown in
FIG. 2
b
. In more detail, as compression and expansion strokes are performed simultaneously with driving vanes of the compressor, there may occur ripples of 60-100 rpm, shown in
FIG. 2
b
on the time axis (t), on which the speed characteristics of the motor is plotted, such that these ripples result in undesired vibrations or noise of a compressor and performance deterioration thereof.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a system for controlling a motor, which removes ripples that may deteriorate a motor's speed characteristic due to loads generated when driving a single rotary compressor, such that it removes vibrations or noise of a compressor and prevents a performance of the compressor from being deteriorated.
In accordance with the present invention, the above and other objects can be accomplished by the provision of a system for controlling a motor, including: a three-phase voltage generator for outputting a three-phase voltage to an inverter driving a motor; a rotation/fixed coordinates converter for converting a reference magnetic flux voltage and a reference torque voltage of a rotation coordinates system of the motor into data of a fixed coordinates system, and outputting the data to the three-phase voltage generator; a fixed/rotation coordinates converter for converting a three-phase current applied from the inverter to the motor into a two-phase current so as to convert currents of the fixed coordinates system into currents of the rotation coordinates system; an estimation unit for estimating a rotation angle and rotor speed of the motor upon receiving currents applied to the fixed/rotation coordinates converter; and a control block for receiving the estimated rotation angle and the estimated speed from the estimation unit, outputting the reference magnetic flux voltage and the reference torque voltage, in which an error caused by loads when driving the motor is compensated, to the rotation/fixed coordinates converter.
