Abstract:
Provided is a method of controlling a multi-channel multi-phase electrical machine including a plurality of channels each with a set of phase windings connected to a converter, which method includes the steps of operating the converters to electrically phase-shift the channels; computing harmonic injection currents for a dominant harmonic on the basis of electrical quantities in a rotating reference frame; determining harmonic voltage references for the dominant harmonic on the basis of the harmonic injection currents; and regulating the AC output voltages of the channels according to the fundamental voltage references and the harmonic voltage references. Also provided is a control arrangement of a multi-channel multi-phase electrical machine; a wind turbine; and a computer program product.
