Seoul National University, Korea
Application of Sensorless Drive from Automotive to Home Appliance
Since the first sensorless drive for general purpose IPMSM was commercialized by Yaskawa
Electric Co. from 2008, the sensorless drive has been applied in many areas from automotive to
home appliance. Several tens of million units of washing machine based on sensorless drive of
PM motor has been used worldwide for last 5 years. Also drive system for oil pump as an auxiliary
drive of hybrid electric vehicle has used sensorless control for last 10 years.
And in soon Integrated Starter-Generator (ISG) machine in vehicle will be driven by high
frequency injection sensorless drive where enough dynamics of control under severe magnetic
saturation of ISG should be guaranteed.
In this speech, the application examples of sensorless drive, especially permanent magnet
motor drive, will be introduced. The most of the examples are based on the algorithm developed
in Power Electronics Lab. of Seoul National University, Korea.
To apply sensroless drive, each application has its own challenges. Through last 20 years of my
experience of sensorless drive, solutions against the challenges for some sensorless drive cases
will be discussed.
Seung-Ki Sul (S’78, M’87, SM’98, F’00) received the B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from Seoul National
University, Seoul, Korea, in 1980, 1983, and 1986, respectively. From 1986 to 1988, he was an Associate Researcher with the
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Wisconsin, Madison. From 1988 to 1990, he was a Principal
Research Engineer with LG Industrial Systems Company, Korea. Since 1991, he has been a member of faculty of School of the
Electrical and Computer Engineering, Seoul National University, where he is currently a Professor.
He has published over 160 IEEE journal papers and a total of more than 350 international conference papers in the area of power
electronics. He was the program chair of IEEE PESC’06 and general chair of IEEE ECCE-Asia, ICPE, 2011.
From 2011 to 2014, he had served as Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Power Electronics, which is a SCIE registered journal,
published by the Korean Institute of Power Electronics (KIPE), Seoul, Korea. For year 2015, he was the president of KIPE.
He was recipient of 2015 IEEE Transaction 1st and 2nd paper awards on Industrial Application, simultaneously.

Keynote Session 1
(Monday, September 9, 2019 • h. 10.00)
Silverio Bolognani
University of Padova, Italy
Convergence and Robustness Properties of Rotor Position Estimation
by HF Voltage Injection in IPM and Reluctance Synchronous Motor Drives
Rotor position estimation at zero and low speed operation of Interior PM and reluctance
synchronous motors by HF voltage injection exploits the dependency of the stator inductances
on the rotor position. This method of estimation injects voltage signals superimposed to the
fundamental (power) voltages commanded by the current controllers and evaluate the position
dependent inductances from the measured HF stator currents. The method was introduced in
the 90’ mainly through the seminal papers by R. D. Lorenz and S. K. Sul. Since then, many studies
have been performed on this topic in order to understand deeply the principle and to enhance
the overall performance of the algorithm. Iron saturation and airgap harmonics effects are
among the issues more investigated. Today, rotor position (and speed) estimation of salient
rotor machines is ready to be transferred to industrial applications.
After a description of the principle, the keynote will describe estimation convergence
conditions and robustness properties in real operating conditions; presentation is supported by
simulation and experimental results. Hints for the design of the estimator will be given.
Extension to other different synchronous motors will be also discussed.
Silverio Bolognani (M’98, SM’16, F’19) received the Laurea degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Padova, Italy,
in 1976. In the same year, he joined the Department of Electrical Engineering of that University, where he was involved in the
analysis and design of thyristor converters and synchronous motor drives. Successively he carried out researches about the
design and control of motor drives for land and marine propulsion, energy generation and conversion, home appliances,
automotive, industry, etc.. He has been and is principal investigator of several research contracts with industries, as well as
research projects funded by national and European Institutions. He is author of three patents and more than 250 international
publications on electric machines and drives. He has given seminars and invited presentations in international conferences and
foreign universities. Now he is mainly involved in drive sensorless and predictive control projects. He is of the Scientific
Committee of national and international conferences and associations, reviewer of international scientific journals and evaluator
of research projects in national and international programmes. He was Head of the Department of Electrical Engineering from
2001 to 2008, member of the Scientific Committee of the University of Padova from 2004 to 2008, vice-Rector for the Research
from 2009 to 2015. His teaching activity at the University of Padova dealt with courses of Electromagnetic fields and Electrical
circuit theory and, later, with Electric traction, Electric drives, Design of electric machines, Industrial electrical applications.

Keynote Session 2
(Tuesday, September 10, 2019 • h. 9.00)
Marko Hinkkanen
Aalto University, Finland
Sensorless Plug-and-Play Control of Industrial Drives
Induction machines still dominate in industrial applications, but synchronous reluctance
machines (SyRMs) and PM-SyRMs are becoming more popular due to their higher torque
density and efficiency. For cost saving reasons, industrial drives are typically required to be
sensorless and their start-up process should be quick and easy.
Ideally, any unknown AC motor can be plugged into a general-purpose inverter, which first
automatically identifies the motor model with minimal user intervention, then configures the
control system based on the identified model, and finally runs the motor in an optimal manner.
Sensorless induction motor drives with these kind of plug-and-play features have been
commercially available for the last 20 years, but suitable methods for SyRMs and PM-SyRMs are
just emerging.
This presentation discusses the state-of-the-art, challenges, and future trends of sensorless
plug-and-play control from the perspective of industrial drives (but many aspects are applicable
to traction drives as well).
Marko Hinkkanen (M’06, SM’13) received the M.Sc.(Eng.) and D.Sc.(Tech.) degrees in electrical engineering from the Helsinki
University of Technology, Espoo, Finland, in 2000 and 2004, respectively.
He is an Associate Professor with the School of Electrical Engineering, Aalto University, Espoo.
He has authored or co-authored more than 120 technical papers (of which more than 40 are in IEEE journals) and he has several
patents. His research interests include control systems, electric drives, and grid-tied converters.
Dr. Hinkkanen was a General Co-Chair for the 2018 IEEE 9th International Symposium on Sensorless Control for Electrical Drives
(SLED).
He was the co-recipient of the 2016 ICEM Brian J. Chalmers Best Paper Award and the 2016 and 2018 IEEE IAS Industrial Drives
Committee Best Paper Awards. He is an IEEE Senior Member and an Editorial Board Member of IET Electric Power Applications.

Shopping
Torino offers both luxury and characteristic shops. Most of the luxury shops are located in the city
centre on via Roma: fashion boutiques, jewelry shops, perfume shops and food and wine stores which
feature the best of the regional products. Then there are the characteristic shops in the little alleys of
the inner city, full of cafes and craftshops. Torino has a little bit (or, as is often the case, a lot) of
everything and for all budgets as well.
Eating
Torino is well known for its local cuisine, which is considered among the best in Italy.
Restaurants are usually open from 12:00 to 14:30 and from 19:30 to 22:30. For those who prefer
something different to the classic menus, Torino proposes a most pleasant alternative: wine bars.
Torino is also renowned for the ability of its pastrycooks.
Museums
Torino offers a wide choice of museums (more than 40): from the Egyptian Museum, the most
important collection in the world after Cairo, to the Sabauda (Savoyard) picture gallery, from the
Cinema Museum, located in the Mole Antonelliana the 167-metre tower symbol of Torino, to the
recently renovated Automobile Museum. Besides its collections of old and modern art, Torino is also
an important centre for contemporary art.
Museums are usually open from Tuesday to Sunday and closed on Mondays.
