Data Set Description: Identifying the Physics Behind an Electric Motor -- Data-Driven Learning of the Electrical Behavior (Part II)

A data set was recorded to evaluate different methods for extracting mathematical models for a three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) and a two-level IGBT inverter from measurement data. It consists of approximately 40 million multidimensional samples from a defined operating range of the drive. This document describes how to use the published data set \cite{Dataset} and how to extract models using introductory examples. The examples are based on known ordinary differential equations, the least squares method or on (deep) machine learning methods. The extracted models are used for the prediction of system states in a model predictive control (MPC) environment of the drive. In case of model deviations, the performance utilizing MPC remains below its potential. This is the case for state-of-the-art white-box models that are based only on nominal drive parameters and are valid in only limited operation regions. Moreover, many parasitic effects (e.g. from the feeding inverter) are normally not covered in white-box models. In order to achieve a high control performance, it is necessary to use models that cover the motor behavior in all operating points sufficiently well.
