A novel kind of switched reluctance motor (SRM) with short flux path is proposed in this paper. Phase excitation in the SRM gives short flux paths, hence reducing the magnetomotive force required to drive the machine, resulting in significant reduction of copper wire and core losses compared to the typical SRM with diametric circulation of magnetic flux. To verify the performance, the characteristics analysis of a double-stator SRM, a 6/5 SRM with C-core structure, and a 4/5 two-phase SRM, which all have short flux paths, and a comparison with conventional SR motors are executed. The comparison demonstrates that the proposed motor offers some advantages in terms of torque and efficiency.

This paper presents a method for evaluating interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) performance over the entire operation region. Using a d-q axis equivalent circuit model consisting of motor parameters such as the permanent magnetic flux, copper resistance, core loss resistance, and d-q axis inductance, a conventional mathematical model of an IPMSM has been developed. It is well understood that in IPMSMs, magnetic operating conditions cause cross saturation and that the iron loss resistance - upon which core losses depend - changes according to the motor speed; for the sake of convenience, however, d-q axis machine models usually neglect the influence of magnetic cross saturation and assume that the iron loss resistance is constant. This paper proposes an analysis method based on considering a magnetic cross saturation and estimating a core loss resistance that changes with the operating conditions and speed. The proposed method is then verified by means of a comparison between the computed and the experimental results.

We designed and fabricated partially shorted QMSAs(Quarter-Wavelength Microstrip Antennas) for 850［MHz］band on various Copper-clad Laminates substrates (TACONIC company), where the width of the radiation patch is identical with that of the ground plane and the radiation patch is partially shorted to the ground plane. The resonant frequencies and the return losses according to the electrical thickness were measured by reducing the PSW (Partially Shorted Width) to 0［mm］. As a result, a good characterized antenna with an average 11% reduced resonant length and a return loss -15.86~-30.68［㏈］ was obtained when the total PSW was in the range of 70% of radiated patch width, compared to the conventional QMSA.

The Development of A.C. Induction Motor for Railway Rolling Stock. The traction motor is designed as 4-pole induction motor with self ventilation. The winding insulation is throughout of materials of class C. The rotor is designed as a squrrel rotor with copper bar and casting. The rotor speed is detected by means of a pulse generator. The newer tection motor have no casting(frame). Punched-in holes make up the air duct and transfer the heat losses in complete. Maximim motor rpm is higher due to rotor construction. New is the entry of water-cooled traction motors in urban, However the water cooling design in - unfortunately - not applicable in traction motor.

The numerical study was carried out to effectively cool Induction motor applied to a washing machine. The outer rotor made of steel periodically spins up and down. The stator consists of the thin layered iron plates and copper coil. The effective cooling system is necessary to solve the reliability problem caused by the electric losses at the coil and the iron plate. Because the heat transfer rate of the natural convection in partially open space is generally low, thus it is necessary to enhance the heat transfer using rotating perforated plate. The flow phenomena around the motor are very complex due to the motor geometry and the outer rotor motion. The mixed convection takes place due to the slow rotation speed. The three dimensional flow simulation was performed using rotating reference frame technique and Boussinesq approximation but the radiation effect was neglected. It was found that the angle and direction of the cooling blades play an important role in the stator temperature.

This paper describes the problems associated with the use of PWM ASDs to drive induction motors. A major effect of harmonic voltages and currents in induction motors is increased heating due to iron and copper losses at harmonic frequencies. The harmonic components thus affect the motor efficiency, and can also affect the torque developed. In order to investigate the effect of harmonics which is caused by using of nonlinear load at the low voltage system, we fixed up simple load model and measured the voltage and current. Measurement. results show that additional operation of linear load at the parallel bus in using nonlinear load such as ASD is helpful to the reduction of harmonic current.

This paper analyzes the effects of metamaterial slabs with negative permeability when applied to a two-loop wireless power transmission (WPT) system, both in theory and electromagnetic (EM) simulations. The analysis of magnetic flux focusing provided here assumes quasi-magnetostatics or magnetostatics. The slab structures with negative permeability have been realized using the periodically arrayed ring resonators (RRs) at 13.36MHz. Some examples with ideal lossless slabs of -1, -2, and -3 showed a great enhancement of WPT efficiencies when compared with the free space cases. However, practical lossy slabs made of planar copper RRs did not show significant enhancement of WPT efficiencies due to the relatively high losses in the ring resonator (or in the slab consisting of RRs) near the resonant frequency.

The modification of magnetic structures for an E-core switched reluctance machine (SRM) comprising two segmented stator cores or a monolithic stator core is presented for ease of assembly, good manufacturability, mechanical robustness, and electromagnetic performance improvement. The E-core stator has four small poles with phase windings and two or four large poles (hereafter referred to as common poles), in between. The common poles are shared by both phases for positive torque generation during the entire operation. The E-core SRMs are compared to a conventional two-phase SRM. The comparison includes cost savings, torque, copper and core losses, and efficiency in order to validate the distinct features of the E-core SRMs. Magnetic equivalent circuit (MEC) technique is employed for proving the benefits of the E-core common-pole structure.

Conventional integral-slot design in permanent magnet(PM) motor tends to have a high cogging torque and large end turns, which contribute to copper losses. The fractional-slot design is effective compared to integral-slot design in the cogging torque and electromotive force(EMF) waveform. The effectiveness of fractional slot can be maximized by selecting optimal pole to slot ratio. This paper presents the effect of pole to slot ratio on the cogging torque and EMF waveform in the PM motor with fractional-slot. The effectiveness of the proposed designs has been confirmed by comparing waveform of EMF. cogging torque and torque ripple between conventional and new models.

This paper presents a simple lead angle adjustment method for brushless DC motors. The proposed method is based on the motor current dynamics analysis during the current commutation interval. With the proposed scheme, the phase current and phase back-EMF voltage are in phase and the BLDC motor and drive system have a high efficiency induced by the reduced copper and conduction losses. Experimental results are shown to validate the proposed method.
