Sensorless Speed Control of a Fault-Tolerant Five-Phase PMSM Drives (2020)
Journal Article
Saleh, K., & Sumner, M. (2020). Sensorless Speed Control of a Fault-Tolerant Five-Phase PMSM Drives. Electric Power Components and Systems, 48(9-10), 919-932. https://doi.org/10.1080/15325008.2020.1825555

This paper introduces a novel method to achieve sensorless speed control of a Five-phase Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) drive in case of a single-phase open-circuit fault regardless which phase is open. The motor performance when an open c... Read More about Sensorless Speed Control of a Fault-Tolerant Five-Phase PMSM Drives.

Single-phase consensus-based control for regulating voltage and sharing unbalanced currents in 3-wire isolated AC microgrids (2020)
Journal Article
Burgos-Mellado, C., Llanos, J., Espina, E., Saez, D., Cardenas, R., Sumner, M., & Watson, A. (2020). Single-phase consensus-based control for regulating voltage and sharing unbalanced currents in 3-wire isolated AC microgrids. IEEE Access, 8, 164882-164898. https://doi.org/10.1109/ACCESS.2020.3022488

A distributed control strategy is proposed to share unbalanced currents in three-phase threewire isolated AC Microgrids (MGs). It is based on a novel approach where, rather than analysing the MG as a three-phase system, it is analysed as three single...

This paper exhibits a novel technique to obtain a sensorless control of a permanent magnet synchronous motor post an open-circuit fault condition to achieve a maximum reliability of the whole drive system. The contribution of this work can be express... Read More about A 3D-space vector modulation-based sensorless speed control of a fault-tolerant PMSMs fed by 27-level inverter.

A hierarchical two-stage energy management for a home microgrid using model predictive and real-time controllers (2020)
Journal Article
Elkazaz, M., Sumner, M., Naghiyev, E., Pholboon, S., Davies, R., & Thomas, D. (2020). A hierarchical two-stage energy management for a home microgrid using model predictive and real-time controllers. Applied Energy, 269, Article 115118. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2020.115118

This paper presents a hierarchical two-layer home energy management system to reduce daily household energy costs and maximize photovoltaic self-consumption. The upper layer comprises a model predictive controller which optimizes household energy usa...
