Interoperability of Electric Drive Models using HELICS

Ajay Pratap Yadav

Accurate modeling and simulation are essential for the effective design, testing, and evaluation of electric machine systems. However, existing models often face interoperability challenges due to differences in programming languages (e.g., C, MATLAB, Python) and the separation of components such as inverters and controllers across diverse environments. These challenges are amplified by the growing use of advanced simulation platforms like Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) and Controller-HIL, which require repeated adaptations for compatibility. This paper presents a HELICS-based co-simulation framework that enables seamless coordination among heterogeneous tools and models, providing a unified platform for integrating and testing electric drive models regardless of their origin. The approach is demonstrated through the co-simulation of an inverter-fed permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) drive under speed control, showcasing reduced development time, flexible reuse of existing models, and efficient integration into both software and HIL environments offering a scalable, modular solution for collaborative and repeatable electric drive system testing and development.
