ABSTRACT:
A control system for a separately excited DC electric traction motor in an electrically powered vehicle incorporates a plurality of current limit functions designed to protect both the motor and control electronics. A time dependent current limit is utilized to permit overcurrent conditions for limited time intervals such that additional power can be obtained for sudden torque requirements without having to design the motor or control electronics to function under continuous high torque conditions. The continuous current limit values based on percent conduction time of a thyristor chopper circuit in the control system is modified in response to overheating of the motor and the main switching thyristor, to overvoltage on the thyristor commutating capacitor and to available voltage for powering the motor.
