Özet

BLDC (Brushless DC) motors have advantages over asynchronous motors and dc motors in various aspects. Particularly in electric bicycles and flying cars, BLDC motors are utilized widely. Electric bicycles and flying cars are becoming increasingly popular, and as a result, the significance of BLDC motors and their cost-effective and efficient utilization has been growing rapidly. PID (Proportional Integral Derivative) controllers are generally used in motor control because they are cheap and perform well. Many methods have been used to adjust PID parameters. Although methods such as Ziegler-Nichols, Cohen-Coon etc. are widely used, there are also new methods such as optimization algorithms PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization), Whale Optimization Technique, Gray Wolf Optimization technique etc. The hybrid method: HPSOGWO (Hybrid Algorithm of Particle Swarm Optimization and Grey Wolf Optimizer) is a combination of PSO and GWO (Grey Wolf Optimizer) techniques, and it can be used for tuning PID parameters. As associated with this, the aim of this study is to show the superiority of HPSOGWO algorithm in optimizing the PID parameters. In the content of this study, the essentials regarding the optimization background, and details of the BLDC motor modeling was explained first. After that, the methodology of the hybrid solution was expressed and then the application phase was explained in detail, by including the results generally. In the context of the intelligent optimization approach of this study, the results were obtained in the MATLAB Simulink environment. The application of the used solution method revealed its superiority over the study conducted solely with GWO in various parameters.
