Architectures d'alimentation et de commande des actionneurs haute-vitesse connectés aux réseaux avioniques à tension variable

The main technological revolution of the new aircrafts is based on intensive electrification of many components of the aircraft. Moreover, the speed of electrical generators is no longer fixed but variable. This new way of generating electrical power generates voltage variations on DC networks. Besides, to increase the compactness of the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines (PMSM) at a given power, their mechanical speed is increased as much as possible by combining them with mechanical reducers for certain applications. The variation of the voltage level of the DC bus supplying a high-speed PMSM implies its sizing in order to ensure its controllability over the entire speed range which carries significant stresses on the Voltage Source Inverter (VSI). To solve this problem, one solution consists in adding an extra DC / DC converter between the input filter and the VSI to maintain the inverter input voltage at a value adapted to the operating point of the PMSM and to optimize its dimensioning. However, this solution increases the order of the system, which increases the complexity of its control, accentuated by the constraints related to the high-frequency nature of the PMSMs considered. The work carried out in this thesis concerns the study, the optimization and the control of the power supply architecture of the high-speed actuators connected to variable-voltage avionic DC networks. As a result, for the avionics applications considered, these power supply architectures integrating an additional DC / DC converter make it possible to reduce the mass and the volume of the power supply structure without degrading the overall efficiency of the conversion chain, in particular by using the impedance-source converters which allow to cancel the DC input current ripples. In addition, Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM) control strategies used with non-linear control architectures (flatness, passivity) make it possible to control these high-speed PMSMs while ensuring their stability over the entire operating range
