Roundabouts have been operated in Europe, America and Australia since the 1970s, and many relevant researches continually was carried out. Though many studies regarding roundabout have been recently conducted in korea, most of them have focused on its operational safety and efficiency. Moreover, roundabout design guideline did not define a clear criteria related to pedestrian in roundabout, but seldom investigate the influences of pedestrian on crosswalk. In this study, we seek ways to operate the pedestrian crosswalk signal on roundabout maximizing their operational effects in exceptional case such as rush hour or intersection near the special facilities. We proved that roundabout signal operation is effective under certain circumstances in according to the number of pedestrian, and suggested the optimal signal timing plan for signalized roundabouts. For pursuing the above, we conducted the simulation test using the VISSIM model. The results show that the operational effectiveness of signalized roundabout was evaluated to be better than non-signalized roundabout in specific pedestrian volume condition. In addition, those results are confirmed using simulation analysis conducted on the real roundabout.

This paper presents a new rotor position estimation method for brushless DC motors. It is clear that the estimation error of the rotor position provokes the phase shift angle misaligned between the phase current and the back-EMF waveforms, which causes torque ripple in brushless DC motor drives. Such an estimation error can be reduced with the help of the proposed neutral voltage-based estimation method that is structured in the form of a closed loop observer. A neutral voltage appearing during the normal mode of the inverter operation is found to be an observable and controllable measure, which can be dealt with for estimating an exact rotor position. This neutral voltage is obtained from the DC-link current, the switching logic, and the motor speed values. The proposed algorithm, which can be implemented easily by using a single DC-link current and the motor terminal voltage sensors, is verified by simulation and experiment results.

Recently. the efforts for the development of DVD concentrate on the high storage and multi-media. DVD has been manufactured by assembling many parts and it causes the vibration and noise. In this paper, one body rotor is proposed, which can make the nose and vibration be decreased. The injection mould for DVD rotor is designed by finite element analysis and the rotor is manufactured in the mould. The magnetic flux density is measured on the surface and it is compared with the design criteria.

This paper represents that parts of a large generator operating in 1000 MW are affected by centrifugal forces due to high-speed rotation in 3600 rpm and 3D FEM Analyses are required to obtained the structural reliability of the generator. From these results, one would know the weakest locations and the stress distributions. The fatigue life is calculated in order to grasp the remaining life of generator. 2D and 3D analyses are performed to calculate stresses of the generator rotor and the retaining ring. From 2D results, we find the SCF at the slot and sub-slot of the rotor. 3D analysis is applied at the end part of generator rotor, which represents complex geometry, and rotor and retaining ring shrink thermally. With these results, designers of rotor and retaining ring can compare with the results of design code and verify the stress distributions of generator rotor and retaining ring, and then calculate the remaining life from the low-cycle fatigue data.

디스크 형의 회전자를 가지고 있는 영구자석 표면 부착형 동기 전동기에서 회전자가 중력 방향에 직각으로 서있고, 디스크 상에 부하가 존재하는 경우 디스크의 불균일한 질량 분포에 의해 편심이 발생한다. 편심 부하는 합성 무게 중심이 반중력 방향으로 향하면 전동기의 속도는 감소하고, 중력 방향이면 속도가 증가하는 정현적인 부하 토크로 작용하여 정현적 인 속도 오차를 발생시킨다. 이 속도 오차를 감소시키기 위해 q-축 전류와 측정된 속도를 입력으로 가지는 부하 토크 관측기를 설계하여 생성된 보상전류를 피드 포워드 방식으로 q-축 지령 전류에 보상하는 방식을 사용한다. 본 연구에서는 부하 토크 관측기를 사용하는 방식에서 발생하는 속도오차에 관하여 분석하였다.

영구자석 동기전동기(Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor)를 벡터 제어로 구동 시 정확한 회전자 위치정보가 요구된다. 일반적으로 레졸버(Resolver)를 이용하면 회전자의 절대 위치(absolute position)를 알 수 있다. 하지만 레졸버의 변압비 차이, 불평형 여자신호, 불균일한 인덕턴스 성분, 신호처리 회로상의 왜곡으로 인해 신호의 크기 불평형이 발생하고 이는 위치정보에 주기적인 오차 성분이 나타나게 되며, 이러한 오차 성분들은 토크에 영향을 준다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 오차 성분을 수학적 해석을 바탕으로 확인하고 보상하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘의 타당성을 실험을 통해 검증하였다.

팬(fan), 펌프(pump), 블로어(blower), 전기 자동차(electric/hybrid vehicle), 전동차와 같은 다양한 분야에서 3상 전동기의 고속 운전에 대한 요구가 증대되고 있다. 일반적으로 3상 전동기가 정격 속도 이상의 고속에서 운전하기 위해서는 회전자 자속(rotor flux)의 크기를 운전 상황에 따라 감소시키는 약자속(flux weakening) 제어가 필수적이다. 유도 전동기의 회전자 자속 기준 벡터 제어 시의 약자속 운전은 자속 성분 전류의 크기를 제어하여 유도 전동기의 고속 운전을 가능하게 하는데, 이러한 전류 제어 기반의 약자속 제어는 그 구조가 복잡하고, 제어기 이득 선정에 따른 동특성(dynamic)이 영향울 받는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 개선하기 위한 순시적 약자속 제어 방법을 제안하고 3.7kW 유도 전동기를 이용한 실험을 통하여 제안된 방식의 성능을 검증한다.

The single phase switched reluctance motor has simple, robust structure and economical drive system. So, it is useful to apply in the industrial and home applied machines. Especially, the single phase induction motor, used much in field, has a low efficiency and control ability. For the replacement of it, the single phase SRM is presented. In this paper, the design and characteristics of single phase SRM considering the rotor shape will be presented in the base of general electric motor design method and poly phase SRM design method.

현재까지 많은 연구자들이 초음파 모터의 회전자와 고정자 사이의 접촉 메커니즘을 규명하고 이를 통해 초음파 모터의 특성을 해석하고자 하였다. 하지만 초음파 모터의 비선형적이고 복잡한 접촉 메커니즘으로 인해 접촉 메커니즘의 명확한 규명과 이를 통한 정확하고 완전한 모터의 특성 해석이 불가능한 상황이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 현재까지 제안된 접촉 메커니즘을 고려한 초음파 모터 해석 방법 중 Hertzian Contact Model을 이용하는 Flynn에 의해 제안된 방법을 유한 요소법과 결합하여 초음파 모터의 특성을 해석하는 기법을 제시하고자 한다.

In this paper, we show that the instantaneous phase current of the bifiler-wound hybrid stepping motor is dependent of lead angle and that the information of motor position is obtained from the instantaneous phase current at ${\pi}/2$ by the theoretical formular and its computer simulation results. From the facts, we design the microcontroller-based motor position sensorless controller of optimal lead angle, which generates the excitation pulses for the closed-loop drives. The controller is consist of microcontroller which has the function of A/D converter, programmable input/output timer, and the transfer table which has the values of optimal lead angle depending on motor velocity, and ROM which has the transfer table of the values of lead angle depending on velocity of motor and the values of instantaneous phase current at ${\pi}/2$. From the design of microcontroller-based controller, we minimize the external interface circuit and obtain flexibility by changing the contents of ROM transfer tables and the control software. We confirm that the designed controller drives the bifilar-wound hybrid stepping motor is the mode of optimal lead angle by comparing the instananeous phase current experimental results and computer simulation results.
