An electric drive, defined as a system which includes a power electronic converter, an electrical machine and a controller, is a key enabling technology which is penetrating into almost all sectors of industry, and has particularly exciting opportunities in aerospace, automotive, renewable energy generation and industrial processes as well as consumer products. It facilitates cost effective and efficient renewable energy generation, enables the adoption of "more electric aircraft" technology, and provides traction power for electric propulsions in railways, ships and cars. The world market for industrial drives alone is over £8.5 billion and has grown between 2% and 5% above the industrial average over the past 30 years, driven by (1) the growth of industrial automation for better quality, productivity and management, and (2) energy saving for cost reduction opportunities which are increasingly supported by regulations such as the climate change levy (UK Department for Business Innovation and Skill report: Power Electronics Strategy for Success, http://www.bis.gov.uk/assets/biscore/business-sectors/docs/p/11-1073-power-electronics-strategy-for-success). Advances in electric drives therefore are not only crucial for the UK's economic growth and competitiveness but also has the potential to make a huge contribution to the low carbon economy as well as to achieve the UK Government target of 15% of all energy generation to come from renewable sources by 2020.While electric drive technology could be considered as established, many challenges lie ahead, including adding new functionality, improving efficiency and compactness in drives as well as the overall system, better availability and condition monitoring, increasing power density and ability to operate in adverse environments. Underlying all of this is the drive for lower costs. The technology is advancing rapidly, and new developments in components and customer requirements in emerging markets such as automotive, aerospace and renewable energy need to be embraced quickly to maintain a competitive advantage. The constraints on material supply chains, such as rare earth magnets, have to be addressed too.This theme will encompass research ranging from the physical integration of the drive, to the design of components, through to the integrated design of the system, using a holistic approach. The ultimate aim of this research will be to advance a selection of the following challenges: Increased Efficiency; Increased Power Density; Greater Functionality; Increased Robustness; Higher Levels of Integration; Lower EMI and Lower Life Cycle Costs, many of which will embrace transformational research topics as opposed to incremental advances. Lower costs will be a key over-arching feature of the theme: although certain cost functions relating to manufacture are to a certain degree independent of this programme, the research will endeavour to reduce component and life-cycle costs and maintain a close working collaboration with the industrial partners to ensure manufacturing costs are not ignored. A systems approach in this theme is essential. Devices and converter concepts will be developed under other themes and, with the exception of the machine and controller, this aspect is about integration. Modelling tools will be developed to enable system optimisation, so that motor, converter and load trade-offs can be understood, enabling design for maximum efficiency, life cycle costs or power density. Finally, this progresses into the topic of design for manufacture.

电力驱动被定义为包括电力电子转换器、电机和控制器的系统，是一项关键的使能技术，几乎渗透到所有工业领域，在航空航天、汽车、可再生能源发电领域尤其具有令人兴奋的机会它促进了具有成本效益和高效的可再生能源发电，实现了“更多电动飞机”技术的采用，并为铁路、船舶和汽车的电力推进提供了牵引动力。独自一人已经结束85 亿英镑，在过去 30 年中增长高于工业平均水平 2% 至 5%，其推动因素是 (1) 工业自动化的发展以提高质量、生产力和管理水平，以及 (2) 节能带来降低成本的机会这些越来越受到气候变化税等法规的支持（英国商业创新和技能部报告：电力电子成功战略， http://www.bis.gov.uk/assets/biscore/business-sectors/docs/p/11-1073-power- electronics -strategy-for-success）因此，电力驱动的进步不仅对于英国的经济增长和竞争力也有潜力为低碳经济做出巨大贡献，并实现英国政府的目标，即 15% 的能源发电来自可再生能源2020年。虽然电力驱动技术可以被认为已经成熟，但仍面临许多挑战，包括添加新功能、提高驱动器以及整个系统的效率和紧凑性、更好的可用性和状态监控、提高功率密度和在不利条件下运行的能力所有这一切的背后是降低成本的驱动力，以及汽车、航空航天和可再生能源等新兴市场的零部件和客户需求的新发展，以保持竞争优势。材料供应链，例如稀有材料地球磁体也必须得到解决。该主题将涵盖从驱动器的物理集成到组件的设计，再到系统的集成设计的研究，采用整体方法。这项研究的最终目标是。旨在推进以下挑战：提高效率；提高功率密度；提高鲁棒性；降低 EMI 和降低生命周期成本，其中许多将涉及变革性研究主题，而不是渐进式进步。降低成本将是该主题的一个关键的总体特征：尽管与制造相关的某些成本函数在一定程度上独立于该计划，但该研究将努力降低组件和生命周期成本，并与工业合作伙伴确保制造成本不被忽视。该主题中的设备和转换器概念将在其他主题下开发，除了机器和控制器之外，这方面将涉及建模工具。被开发以实现系统优化，以便可以理解电机、转换器和负载的权衡，从而实现最大效率、生命周期成本或功率密度的设计。最后，这进入了制造设计的主题。
