This paper proposes the novel flux barrier that built in q-axis in rotor of IPM type BLDC motor. The novel flux barrier aims to reduce the motor vibration with reduced cogging torque and lessened torque ripple by the sinusoidal waveform distribution of the flux generated in the permanent magnet. For optimization of the novel flux barrier, the Taguchi method is effectively employed which considered multiple objective quality characteristics, such as cogging torque, average torque and efficiency. The result of proposed model compare with the initial model and it is verified by 2D finite element method (FEM) results.

This paper examines the design and the performance of a PMA-RSM(permanent-magnet assisted reluctance synchronous motor) for washing machine. A FEM(finite element method) is used to analyze performance and maximum torque characteristic of the proposed PMA-RSM. The designed motor is a combination of salient poles, which is making reluctance torque, and permanent magnet which are located on the air-gap of rotor to get a enough torque during low speed resign. Typical flux barrier type reluctance synchronous motor and the effects of adding magnet into the flux barrier of the rotor of a PMA-RSM are compared and examined. Also the maximum torque point of the reluctance torque by reluctance and reaction torque by magnetic alignment torque, which is in barrier, of the proposed PMS-RSM are derived through simulation. Using this results, the characteristics analysis of a performance, an average torque and a torque ripple of flux barrier RSM and the proposed PMA-RSM are performed through FEM under the saturation effect respectively.

This paper deal with the shape design of the flux barrier to maximize the torque density and minimize the torque ripple in IPM type BLDC motor. The variation of magnetic torque and reluctance toque according to the flux barriers is analyzed in the 120 conducting period. From the result, we confirmed the barrier can be quite worthwhile for the better performance of IPM type BLDC motor

The high heat emitted from the process module and heat jacket may cause errors in semiconductor process equipment. Barriers were designed to reduce the temperature of surface on transfer module. A designed barrier was compared and analyzed by numerical analysis using ANSYS Fluent. The average temperature of barrier and effect of radiation heat transfer were also compared through absorbed radiative heat flux of the barrier. The adoption of the barrier had an effect on the radiative heat transfer reduction of the transfer module rod. The effect of the angles of barrier from 50° to 90° on the heat transfer was investigated using the absorbed radiative heat flux with the average temperature. The angle of barrier of 50° reduced the temperature up to 9.6 %.

This paper presents a characteristic analysis method of a permanent magnet type transverse flux linear motor (TFLM) with spiral cores. The spiral cores are used as the mover cores in order to make 3-dimensional (3-D) magnetic flux paths at the TFLM which have 3-D magnetic flux flows. The 3-D Equivalent Magnetic Circuit Network Method is used to analyse the magnetic characteristics of the machine, and an imaginary part, 'flux barrier,' is introduced to consider the spiral core characteristic. Magnetic parameters such as flux, inductance, and thrust are calculated from the analysis results. The computed thrust forces are compared to measured values to confirm the accuracy of the analysis.

Generally, the motor inside vehicle is exposed to highly ambient temperature and large vibration according to repeatedly starting and stopping for very short time. So, in this paper, the rotor shape design was performed to improve demagnetization endurance by considering the starting current of the Brushless DC (BLDC) Motor through the Finite Element Method(FEM). As a result, the partial irreversible demagnetization was occurred by starting current at the end of Permanent Magnets of the basic model. To solve this problem, the flux barrier design was performed and the flux on the rotor core was limited. Accordingly, demagnetization endurance and operating characteristics were improved.

The paper presents the design of a segmented type synchronous reluctance motor(SynRM) to increase its torque and power factor. The main feature of a segmented type synchronous reluctance motor is the flux barrier. Thus, the design process to find optimum value of various geometric parameters including flux barrier will be explained. Optimum value of each parameter is found where the d, q inductance difference and saliency ratio are maximized because these inductance characteristics are related to torque and power factor. Finite Element Analysis will be used to simulate motor characteristics. Analysis results of redesigned SynRM show higher saliency ratio over 10 and improved value of maximum power factor.

It is demonstrated that the torque performance of the flux barrier type synchronous reluctance motor(SynRM) can be improved in terms of geometric parameters. Torque ana power factor are related to the difference of inductances and the saliency ratio. And these inductance characteristics are determined by the geometric parameters of rotor: the number of layers. the width of iron to the width of flux barrier($K_w$). slot number and shape, airgap, bridge, etc. The relationship between geometric parameters. especially, $K_w$ and motor performance will be studied. This paper shows that torque and power factor are improved through redesign with considering geometric parameters. Performance comparisons of proto type SynRM and improved SynRM are given by FEA(Finite Element Analysis).
