Wecantell fromFigure5 that thespeedregulationrangeof trianglemode isabout √ 3 times that instarmodebut themaximumtorque is1/ √ 3 times that instarmode; thespeedregulationrange in thenon-flux-weakeningregion in independentmode isapproximately twice that instarmodeandits maximumtorque isequal to that instarmode. 2.2.WindingModesSwitchingStrategy Wefirstdeterminegeneralwindingmodes switching strategies. When themotor is in staror trianglemode,onlyone inverter isworkingwithon-state lossesandswitching losses.Whenanother inverterhas lowerbridgearmson, there isonlyon-state loss. In trianglemode, it isdifferent than when the triangle circuit switch is turnedon; there are on-state losses on triangle circuit. What is more, the topologyofstatorwinding in trianglemodedeterminesprobablezero-sequencecurrent in themotor,whichmaycontribute towastageof the inverter’scurrentcapacityandlossesonelectric resistanceandelectronicdevicesdueto thecurrent’sheatingeffect. In independentmode,bothsides’ invertersareworkingandhaveon-state lossesandswitchinglosses. Inconclusion, intermsof losses in electronicdevices, starmodehas the leastandindependentmodehas themost,with trianglemode in themiddle. Inorder toreduce those losses inelectronicdevices, thegeneralwindingmodesswitching strategymightbe that ifworkingconditionsareappropriate, starmode is thefirst choice, thentriangle mode; trynot touse independentmode. 247
