This paper propose an initial rotor position detection method for sensorless operation of a single-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor(SP-PMSM) with asymmetric air-gap. In general, the sensorless control based on back-emf estimation is difficult to estimate the back-emf at the zero and low speed regions. For this reason, an open loop start-up technique is indispensable, and it is also necessary to detect the initial position of the rotor in order to rotate in a certain direction. In this paper, we propose a method to detect rotor polarity by adding offset voltage to high frequency voltage signal based on the magnetic characteristics of SP-PMSM. The validity and usefulness of the proposed algorithm are verified through several experimental results.

Recently, magnetic forces are considered as a method for more efficient tooth movement. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of the changes of the magnetic volume on the magnetic forces. The universal testing machine and the electronic balance were used for the exact measurement of the force with constant air gap. While the magnet was kept same on one side, the magnetic volume of the other side was increased gradually in four manners. In the first group, the thickness was increased by adding same size of the magnets one after another while the thickness was increased by changing with a thicker magnet gradually in the second group. In the third group. the width was increased by adding same size of the magnets while the width was increased by changing with a wider magnet gradually in the last group. The results were as follows : 1. With the increase of the thickness, the magnetic force increased, while the magnetic force decreased with the increase of the width. 2. The magnetic force according to the change of the magnetic volume showed the distribution of the logarithmic function. 3. An originally thick magnet showed larger force than the added magnets although both of them had same volume.

In this study we deal with design procedures for the flywheel energy storage system that has the capacity to store the regenerative energy produced from the railway vehicles. The flywheel energy storage system (FESS) stores the regenerative electrical energy into the high speed rotational flywheel, by conversion the electrical energy into the mechanical rotational energy. Thus the FESS is composed of the energy conversion components, such as the motor and generator, mechanical support components, such as the rotational rotor, the magnetic bearings to support the rotor, and the digital controller to control the air gap between the rotor and the magnetic bearings. In this paper the design procedures for the rotor operating at the rigid mode and the magnetic bearings to support the rotational rotor without contact are presented.

In this paper, a study on the efficiency improvement of the magnetic levitation train using the LIM (Linear Induction Motor) was presented. The maglev train has the advantage of being environmentally friendly since much less noise and dust is produced. However, due to structural limitation, compared to a rotating induction motor, linear induction motor, the main propulsion engine of the maglev train has a relatively greater air gap and hence has the lower operation efficiency. In this paper, the relationship between the operating condition of the train and the slip frequency has been investigated to find out the optimum slip frequency that might improve the efficiency of the magnetic levitation train with linear induction motor. The slip frequency is variable during the operation by this relationship only within a range that does not affect the levitation system of the train. After that, the comparison of the efficiency between the conventional control method with the slip frequency fixed at 13.5[Hz] and the proposed method with the slip frequency variable from 9.5[Hz] to 6.5[Hz] has been conducted by simulation using Simplorer. Experiments of 19.5[ton] magnetic levitation trains owned by Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials were carried out to verify the simulation results.

By using a coupled circuit, time-stepping, two-dimensional finite element method (2-D FEM), the performance of a stand-alone permanent-magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) with inset rotor can be computed without involving the classical two-axis model. The effects of interpolar air gap length and armature resistance on the load characteristics are investigated. It is shown that the interpolar flux density, and hence the amount of voltage compensation, is affected by magnetic saturation. Validity of the coupled circuit and field analysis is confirmed by experiments on a prototype generator. The machine exhibits an approximately level load characteristic when it is supplying an isolated unity-power-factor load.

An axial flux magnet for a magnetic levitation system is designed and analysed by finite element simulations. The results are compared with those of experiment in order to verify the analysing method. Lift force, air gap flux density and temperature characteristics of the magnet showed fairly good agreement with each other.

In order to obtain optimal design criteria and operating parameters, a Single-sided Linear Induction Motor (SLIM) is analysed by using a 2-D finite element method with magnetic and current vector potential. In the analysing procedures, the governing equation is derived from Maxwell's equation combined with the magnetic vector potential. As a forcing term, 3-phase voltage source is employed using the Kirchhoff's voltage law in order to look into effects of the unbalanced 3-phase currents and air gap flux density. Also, 2ndary eddy current distribution, longitudinal end and transverse edge effects are in turns visualized by flux lines in 3 different analysing planes as functions of frequency and input power.

This paper deals with the electromagnetic clutch which stop the generator at emergency by using the engine power of generator. The electromagnetic field was analyzed using Flux-2d program with different conditions : voltage, air gap, coil locations. As a result, the maximum magnetic flux density of electromagnetic clutch occurred between the coil and wheel : 0.27[T], 0.41[T] at 12[V], 24[V]. The maximum flux density was at the center location of the coil.
