Workshop MCES, Lille, November 2006
Vector control for a 7-phase machine Smooth torque even with non-sinusoidal emf
Vector control with two open phases Average torque but torque ripples
Modified Vector control with two open phases A smooth torque can be obtained in this machine when one or two phases are opened thanks to : •slight modification of the DESIGN of the machine •slight modification of the control
