The objective of the proposed internship can be divided into the following sub-objectives – 1) develop a control strategy with variable operating switching frequency to dynamically control current ripple and reduce system losses, and 2) develop a current control strategy to improve dynamic response for the two level inverter fed PMSM drive; while taking into account the effect of different operating regions and drive design parameters. More specifically the following tasks will be accomplished for each sub-objective:
1) Define the design parameters of the two level inverter for the PMSM
2) Investigate the drive control strategies most suitable for the TM4 system
3) Assessing the constraints on the drive control strategies by the design parameters
4) Studying the theoretical and practical constraints on the control strategy of the drive
5) Assessing how the variation of design variables impacts the characteristics of the control strategies
6) Define and establish appropriate control strategies to meet requirements as demanded by the TM4
7) Validate the proposed control strategies over a wide operating range of the drive, for steady state and transient operation.
8) Representing the strategies in the form a simulation control block, to be made readily available for TM4 to use in their drive and providing a final report.

Our team operated and managed the Littlefield Technologies facility over the span of 1268 simulated days. Our team finished the simulation in 3rd place, posting $2,234,639 in cash at the end of the game. We did intuitive analysis initially and came up the strategy at the beginning of the game. And then we applied the knowledge we learned in the class, did process analysis and modified our strategies according to the performance results dynamically. We have reinforced many of the concepts and lessons learned in class and had a better understanding of the operation of the Littlefield Technologies facility and how certain modifications would affect the throughput and lead time.
After having run through the simulation, what elements of that strategy would you have changed and/or what strategy do you intend to pursue in the group simulation?
The Course Project is an opportunity for you to apply concepts learned to a real-life simulation experience. Throughout the Course Project, you will assume that you work as a financial analyst for Aero Plain, Inc. The Course Project is provided in two parts as follows:
1. “First, decide what specific strategies you want to model and what text to use”
In order to maintain synchronous speeds with the gas turbine while still reducing or increasing power output, the engine must be properly controlled [27]. “The control of the engine depends on where in the part-load curve the engine is operating” [27].
My assessment of the performance of our team (ACC-Baldwin) in Phase One is that we performed decently in terms of strategy, but we have a lot of room for improvement in terms of implementation of strategy in the simulation exercise.
The simulation taught me the benefits of outsourcing, the advantages of an ambitious target scope, the relation between SL and TM and the importance of communication.
In the second part, we will describe the technology developed to support each strategy. As well as the cost of the components associated with each
The highest priority was building effective and successful team environments along with communication techniques. Excellent communication skills are essential in virtual teams, which is why this should always be a crucial area of personal development for team members (Manktelow, J., 2012). The second instrument in understanding the Capsim simulation strategy was having knowledge of the market growth rate and the key four customer expectations
Justification: This information provides the reader with strategic context for the follow on reading. It explains the differences between the design documents and explains how each provides a unique picture of the solution.
Because of its linear characteristics and ease of controlling it's speed by simple power electronic circuit. The main obstacle for this type of system which has prompted the researchers to focus their studies toward AC machine, such as induction and synchronous machine. The availability of the variable speed drives for induction motor made it dominated in industry. Despite this, the small efficiency in induction motor especially those which have low power rating. The PMBDCM with predominant performance is found to be the solution for the drawbacks of the AC and Induction motors. The characteristics of the PMBDCM is similar to the separately excited DC motor, the difference in controller of PMBDCM which is the same of AC motor controller [2] [6].
AC drives are used in the industry on three phase motors. Three phase motors are highly preferable due to their high efficiency and high power outputs. The need to control these three phase motors speed, torque, and direction has led to the creation of the AC drive. AC drives come in all shapes and sizes with no two being the same. Being nonstandard the manual is necessary to properly program and wire the AC drive.
