This paper presents a new stand-alone wind-based induction generator system with constant frequency and adjustable output voltage. The proposed generator consists of a six-phase cage-rotor induction machine with two separate three-phase balanced stator windings and a three-phase space vector pulse width modulation inverter that operates as a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM). The first stator winding is fed by the STATCOM and used to excite the machine while the second stator winding is connected to the generator external load. The main frequency of the STATCOM is determined to be constant and equal to the load-requested frequency. The generator output frequency is independent of the load power demand and its prime mover speed because the frequency of the induced emf in the second stator winding is the same as this constant frequency. A sliding mode control (SMC) is developed to regulate the generator output voltage. A second SMC is used to force the zero active power exchanged between the machine and the STATCOM. Some simulation and experimental results are presented to prove the validity and effectiveness of the proposed generator system.

The starting characteristics of induction motors strongly depend on the leakage reactance and resistance of stator winding and rotor circuits. The magnetic field saturation in the rotor bridge of closed slot rotor makes it very difficult to compute the leakage reactance of rotor bars. This paper describes a comparison between timestep finite element analysis, time-harmonic analysis and experimental results for a test model which can represent the nonlinear behaviour of the rotor bridge.

Shorted-turns can have significant effects on a generator and its performance. Shorted-turn sensor for synchronous generator's field winding have been developed. One of effective method detecting inter-turn short circuits on round rotor winding is a method using sensor detecting. But the method needs duplicate design of sensor for characteristic change according to types and forms of generator Thus sensing skill without sensor depend on change of electric property in generator. For the reason, this paper presents shorted-turns phenomenon and the characteristic analysis of shorted-turns In synchronous generator by using 2-D finite element method(FEM).

This paper deals with the operating characteristics of induction motors with broken rotor bar, stator winding inter-turn short and their complex fault conditions. The considered operating characteristics are phase current, torque and speed. Since the operating characteristics of induction motors are directly related to their slip conditions, this paper built the experimental set to adjust the speed of induction motor with a permanent magnet synchronous generator connected to a load bank. From the various experimental results, it is shown that the faults do not highly affect on the operating characteristics of induction motors in low slip conditions, but the fault characteristics can be easily found in larger slip conditions.

The Servo motor is consistent with the magnet rotor, winding, magnetic back iron and the sensor. Especially the soft magnetic back iron in the servo motor, which consists of the magnet rotor and winding, and between these two components lies the magnetic circle. Its important to monitor the output power of to make conclusive decision for designs. In these days main household electrical appliances, business machinery and tools are made by process of miniaturization. Because of this miniaturization in hardware, miniaturization of the servo motor is essential But the decrease inside affects the power output. For improve of these has been several attempt at improving the power output of these smaller servo motors. There has been experiment in the servo motor composition, composing of the improvement of the soft magnetic back iron through comparison of the out put power plans are being made.

This paper proposed a method to reduce torque ripple of double-layer axial flux permanent magnet motor. Torque is generated by interacting between current of stator winding and airgap flux. In the case of slotless axial flux permanent magnet motor, only commutation torque component is significant. Hence, cogging and reluctance torque will not be considered. For this propose, we were supplied differential phase current in each winding and shifted rotor magnet. According to shifted rotor magnet and flux and phase of current were shifted, phase of developed torque in each side is difference. As a result, we could reduce the total torque ripple in motor and obtain minimum torque ripple in the case of 7.5 degree shifting angle between two rotors.

The motor current signature provides an important source of the information for the faults diagnosis of three-phase induction motor. The theoretical principles behind the generation of unique signal characteristics, which are indicative of failure mechanisms, are Presented. The fault detection techniques that can be used to diagnose mechanical Problems, stator and rotor winding failure mechanisms, and air-gap eccentricity are described. A theoretical analysis is presented which predicts the presence of unique signature patterns in the current that are only characteristics of the fault. The predictions are verified by experimental results from a special fault Producing test rig and on-site tests in a steel company. And this study have made new diagnostic algorithm for the operating induction motors with the test results. These developments are including the use of monitoring and analysis of electric current to diagnose mechanical and electrical problems and gave the precise test results automatically.

This paper deals with the optimum rotor design solution on torque ripple reduction for a SynRM with concentrated winding using response surface methodology (RSM). The RSM has been achieved to use the experimental design method in combination with finite element method (FEM)and well adapted to make analytical model for a complex problem considering a lot of interaction of design variables. Comparisons are given with characteristics of a SynRM according to flux barrier number, flux barrier width variation, respectively.

The aim of this paper is to develop a controller of multi-phase bipolar brushless DC (MPB BLDC) motors for an electric bicycle. A MPB BLDC motor has a Permanent magnet rotor in which the magnetic arrangement is radial to the shaft and integral to the rotor laminations. This technique concentrates flux, giving a higher flux density than a surface-mounted PM motor and increases reluctance torque. The stator of MPB BLBC motor has parallel winding, allowing multi-phase separate independent controllability. It gets much more high power than wye-connection at same low voltage. The conventional techniques of exited with modulation(EWM), bidirection control, and partial square wale control are Proposed with one H-bridge and two photo sensors per phase. The Proposed controller is satisfied for the limited speed control and designed for system stability Experimental results show the performance of the proposed controller of MPB BLDC motors for an electric bicycle.

This paper presents the fluid characteristics simulation and design guide line of the fluid path inside the rotor, which has an high-Tc superconducting field winding using Ag sheathed BSCCO-2223. The analysis was conducted with an equivalent model of the high-Tc superconducting synchronous motor under transition condition that occurs during the load varying from 250watt to 500watt. The results show that the designed fluid circulation system performs adequately in maintaining the superconducting state in the winding.
