This paper presents drive analysis of slotless air-cored PM linear synchronous motor using two-dimensional analytical method. In order to calculate dynamic characteristic, back-EMF and linkage flux are calculated by Permanent Magnet Field and also inductance are given by slotless winding current coil. PMLSM drive simulation is performed by PI control system.

In the machine tool industry, direct drive linear motor technology is of increasing interest as a means to achieve high acceleration, and to increase reliability. This paper deals with the characteristics of tubular type linear oscillating actuator with Halbach magnet array. The magnetic field solutions are derived analytically in terms of vector potential, two dimensional cylindrical coordinate system and Maxwell's equations. Motor thrust, flux linkage, back emf are then derived. The results are shown in good conformity with those obtained from the commonly used finite element method. Test results such as thrust measurements are also given to confirm the analysis.

The BLDCM (Brushless DC Motor) characterized by linear torque to current, and speed to voltage has low acoustic noise, and fast dynamic response. Moreover, it has high power density with high proportion of torque to inertia in spite of small size drive. But, it produce torque ripple due to the motor inductance components in stator windings and back-EMF, when armature current is commutated. Therefore, it is difficult to apply the BLDCM to a precision servo drive system. In this paper is proposed to a new current control algorithm with using fourier series coefficients can minimize torque ripple due to the phase current commutation of BLDCM. Simulation and Experimental results prove the effectiveness the proposed algorithm through comparison with the conventional used unipolar PWM method.

This paper deals with design and thrust force measurement of EMS type LSM for propulsion of the high-speed maglev train. The load of maglev train is calculated, and the design equations of the LSM are presented, and the LSM which is suitable for the operation of short-distance test track is designed. In addition, the finite element analysis is performed to confirm the back-EMF and thrust force characteristics of the LSM designed model. A short length LSM prototype model is manufactured. Finally, the thrust force of the LSM is measured by the method applying dc current to the stator winding instead of three-phase ac current. And the validity of the design and analysis is verified by this measurement.

This paper deals with analytical solution concerning the image method using the magnetic charge instead of 3D FEA(finite element analysis) in the slotless single air-gap motor. The theory of analytical method and the design procedures are introduced. The reliability and validity of proposed analytical solution are verified through the comparison with the results of commercial 3D FE software. In addition, calculation time between proposed analytical solution and 3D FEA is compared. Finally, characteristics, such as Back-EMF and phase resistance, between calculated and experimental results are compared. From the verification with 3D FEA and experimental results, it is proved that presented analytical method provided very effective and precise results.

This paper presents a numerical optimization technique to reduce input current and torque ripple of the low voltage BLDC motor using core, coil and switching angle optimization. The optimization technique is employed using the generalized response surface method(RSM) and sampling minimization technique with FEM. A 50W 24V BLDC motor is used to verify the proposed algorithm. As optimizing results, the input current is reduced from 2.46 to 2.11[A], and the input power is reduced from 59 [W] to 51 [W] at the speed of 1000 [rpm]. Also, applied the same optimization algorithm, the torque ripple is reduced about 7.4 %. It is confirmed that the proposed technique is a reasonably useful tool to reduce the consuming current and torque ripple of the low voltage BLDC motor for a compact and efficient design.

This paper deals with design of a direct-coupled, small-scaled permanent magnet generator (PMG) for wind power application. First, this paper determines rated power and speed of the PMG from measured characteristics of wind turbines. Second, we derive analytical solutions for the open-circuit field in order to determine optimum magnet thickness and pole pitch/arc ratio. Third, on the basis of open circuit field solutions, stator magnetic circuit including slot opening, teeth width and yoke thickness is designed. And then, a diameter of stator coil which agree with a required current density is calculated, and its turns are determined from the area of slot considering winding packing factor. Finally, finite element (FE) method is employed in analyzing the details of the designed PMG and, test results such as back-emf measurements are given to confirm the design.

This paper proposes a new torque control algorithm for BLDC motors to get the maximum torque in the high speed region. The delay of the phase currents is severe due to the stator reactance. The torque fluctuations of BLDC motors increase and the average torque is decreases due to a slow rise in the phase current when compared to the back EMF. In this paper, the phase current of BLDC motors under the high speed condition is analyzed and a torque maximization control is developed on the basis of using numerical analysis. Computer simulations and experimental results show the usefulness of the proposed control algorithm.

In this paper, the voltage control is applied to the adjustable speed operation of BLDC motor with the trapezoidal back emf waveform. Torque chrateristics of BLDC are investigated through Fourier analysis when the pulse width modulation inverter is applied. Also, this paper consisders the theoretical problem of eliminating some harmonic components in inverter output waveforms, which, in turn, allows to remove some ripple components. Numerical technique is applied to solve the transcendental equations of the problem by the computer.
