In recent years, the concern of designing multi-stage gear drives ha increased with more application of them in high-speed and high-load. Until now, however, the researches on the design of gear drives have been focused on single gear pairs. Thus the design practice for multi-stage gear drives has been depended on experiences and expertise of designers and carried out commonly by trial and error. We propose an automation algorithm for the design of two-and three-strage cylindrical gear drives. The two types of dimensional design processes have been proposed to determine gear dimensions in a formal way. The first design process(Process I) uses to total volume of gears to determine gear ration , and uses K factor , unit load and aspect ration to determine gear dimensions, The second one(Process II) makes use of Niemann's formula and center distance to calculate gear ratio and gear dimensions. Process I and Process II employ material date from AGMA and ISO standards, respectively. The configuration design determines the positions of gears with minimizing the volume of gearbox by using a simulated annealing algorithm. The availability of the design algorithm is validated by the design examples to two-and three=stage gear drives.

Electric motors and drives consume the largest amount of electricity more than 40% of global electricity consumption. In addition, motors, drives and its components are included in the global high-trade products and the main driving source for industrial equipment and house appliances. Thus, International standards and regulations for their safety and efficiency are internationally being discussed and created for the protection of its citizens and energy saving. So, understanding the international standards and the regulation of each country is essential to enhance overseas market and to develop product. In this paper, on the basis of this background, status and trends of international standards and regulations are introduced for safety and efficiency of motors and the drives. Safety and efficiency of the IEC (International Electrotechical Commission) standards are introduced in the emphasis. Also, regulations are studied about the differences and trends in each county.

In recent years, the need for multi-stage gear drives, which highly reduce output speed, has been increased. However, the design of multi-stage gear drives have been carried out by a limited number of experts. The consideration for the direction of input and output axes also makes their design very difficult. The purpose of this study is to develop an algorithm for automatically generating complex multi-stage gear drives and to implement a design supporting system for multi-stage gear drives. There are 4 stages in the proposed algorithm, and major design parameters,.such as the direction of input and output axes, reduction ratio, etc. are set up in the first stage. In the second stage, all mechanisms are generated, and various rules are applied to select feasible mechanisms. In the third stage, the gear ratio of each stage is divided from total gear ratio. Next, the specifications of gears for feasible mechanisms are calculated and their bending strength and surface durability are estimated. In the forth stage, appraised indexes are calculated and provided to support the estimation of the generated gear drives.

Current source inverter drives of auto sequentially commutated type are very popular in high power applications, because of simple power circuit configuration with four quadrant operation. But the six-step current output create harmonic problems and the input power factor of such a drive is not always good. In this respect pulse width modulated drives using gate turn off thyristors ( GTO ) are finding application, especially in traction drives. However the switching and snubber loses of a GTO do not permit the inverter switching frequency go beyond a few hundred hertz.This will again introduce low frequency harmonic problems. Multi level inverters of the 3-level and 5-level can be considered as an alternative to overcome the low switching frequency harmonic problem of the 2-level GTO inverters. But with multi level inverters the complexity of the power circuit increases. In this paper a combination of multi level ( 2-level and 3-level ) inverters and multi phase induction motor ( 3-phase and 6-phase) configurations are presented for high power VSI drives for traction applications with reduced inverter switching frequency requirements coupled with reduced voltage rating for the power switch.

For electrical vehicles, switched reluctance drives present a promising alternative-compared to asynchronous and synchronous (permanent magnet) concepts. For these applications, a very wide field weakening range is a key issue. Other requirements include high torque output from a small machine and low current ripple at the DC-side without the use of bulky filters - when powered from fuel cells or advanced Lithium-Ion-batteries. A new converter and control strategy according to these requirements is presented and compared to existing designs. The comparison is done for a drive system with a continuous power rating of 30 to 40 kW.

An advanced simulation model for brushless dc (BLDC) motor drives using Matlab is presented. In the developed model, the dynamic characteristics of speed and torque as well as voltages and currents of pwm inverter components can be effectively monitored and analyzed. Therefore, it can be expected that the developed simulation model can be an easy-to-design tool for the development of BLDC motor drives including control algorithms and topological variations with reduced computation time and memory size.

To control the speed of IPMSM drives it is necessary to know the speed and the rotor position. This is normally done by measurement of this values with electromechenical sensors. In this paper, a new approach to the position elimination method for the high performance variable speed IPMSM drives with the current controlled PWM technique is presented. For the high performance drive capability in the speed region, a Extended Kalman filter algorithm is adopted to estimate the rotor position as well as the angular velocity for the practical sensorless IPMSM drives. The high performance drive characteristics of the proposed method are verified using the wide simulation.

During the last decades several proposals have been made in literature to use predictive control for inverter control-especially in electrical drives. These algorithms are completely different to the recursive but linear predictive algorithms known from information theory, where closed mathematical equations are used (e.g. Kalman-filters). Only few of the presented schemes have been realized in industrial applications so far. After some further progress, however, the advantage of predictive algorithms might lead to an increased number of industrial implementations in the future. Besides the common basic idea - to use the well-known but strongly non-linear behaviour of inverters to precalculate the best switching times - there are many differences in the details of these proposals. This contribution shows similarities and differences and attempts to design a 'family tree' of predictive control algorithms. This might grow to a first step to a theoretical approach to deal with predictive control schemes in a more generalised way.

This paper presents an example of the development of motor drives for machine tools. Machine tools need motor drives with high control precision and performance. We developed a motor drive system that meets these requirements. The converter, the one component of drive system, adopts modular structure and high DC-link voltage. The drive which consists rest part of drive system is developed based on TMS320C32 DSP and state-of-the-art circuit technology. In this paper each developed parts are described in terms of its structure, specification and features.
