Abstract

Accurate temperature estimation of permanent magnet synchronous motors serves as the fundamental basis for designing effective thermal management strategies. Model-based estimation methods exhibit superior real-time performance, but the intricate modeling process requires substantial expert knowledge and lacks versatility. Conversely, data-driven estimation methods, while offering flexibility, often lack physical implications in terms of system dynamics. This paper proposed a structured linear neural dynamics model for motor temperature estimation. This model is data-driven, with prior knowledge integrated into its structure, which preserves flexibility while guaranteeing system stability through the Perron-Frobenius theorem. Additionally, this paper achieves the decoupling of control input from state transitions and the embedded deployment of this model. The method is validated with a real dataset. The lightweight feature is demonstrated by the implementation of an STM32 Microcontroller with 1.808 KB and 27 mW.
