Development of Energy Efficient Mechatronic Module for Alternative Energy

Abstract

The article describes the creation of mechatronic module for follow-up systems. In the mechanical part of the module the authors applied a reducer, which is based on cam coaxial radial flat transmission with intermediate rolling bodies. Transmission ratio is determined and equation of tooth profile is derived for the transmission. Transmission kinematics with different number of rolling bodies was also analyzed. Mechatronic module was designed to limit overall dimensions. The analysis of stress-strain state of the most loaded elements of the transmission is conducted. Structural diagram of mechatronic module is developed. Structure of optimal control of BLDC motor is presented as well as a function of minimizing the dependence on characteristics of a transition process of motor speed is selected. An adaptive PID controller is synthesized using genetic algorithm.
