Abstract

Transportation electrification is gaining notoriety in recent years as to fulfill the aim of reducing the fossil fuels consumption and to increase energy efficiency. Accordingly, integrated starter alternator is a compelling method to convert conventional vehicles into hybrid ones. A deal of benefits can be reached by using ISA systems. In general, it provides vehicles performance enhancement and also reduces fuel consumption. This paper aims to present simulation results and preliminary experimental achievements with a power electronics-based prototype driving a permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM). The ISA operation is demonstrated throughout providing cranking torque and assistant torque for constant power and constant torque conditions and afterward the generation mode. Details of the hardware design and control strategies, which include an ADALINE neural network for properly find the mechanical position and the application of a metaheuristic technique to tune the controllers of the motor control, have been also addressed.
