The single-phase induction motor is simple and durable, but the efficiency is low. Therefore, electric motors like HLDC and LSPM(line-start permanent magnet motor) that use the permanent magnet have been studied. The most advantages of single-phase LSPM is having the same stator as the stator of the single-phase induction motor and permanent magnets are just inserted in the squirrel cage rotor of the single-phase induction motor. But the characteristics of single-phase LSPM synchronous motor has very complex characteristics until the synchronization and if the design is not suitable, the single-phase LSPM synchronous motor cannot be synchronized. We designed a single-phase LSPM using the same stator and winding as the conventional single-phase induction motor, but newly designed the permanent magnets considering air gap magnetic flux density. The transient characteristics of the single-phase LSPM is not good because of a magnetic breaking torque, however, it can be improved by redesigning the rotor bars. We are proposed the design method of rotor bar for the single-phase LSPM to start softly and to make synchronization easily.

In this research, the design procedure and the design method of a single-phase line-start permanent magnet motor (LSPM) are proposed. In the design procedure, the permanent magnet is designed first and the windings and capacitors are designed later. As well, the points of design of each design parameter are explained. In the design of the single-phase LSPM, the equivalent circuit method is combined with the finite element method (FEM) because it has a shorter analysis time than FEM. The 400 watts single-phase LSPM is designed and manufactured. The characteristics of the manufactured single-phase LSPM are analyzed and experimented. From the analysis result and the experiment result, it is verified that the design procedure and the design method of the single-phase LSPM is valid.

The purpose of this paper is the rotor design of a single-phase LSPM(Line-start permanent magnet) motor. A single-phase LSPM motor has a permanent magnet in the rotor that is same as induction motor. For that reason, magnet is operated by breaking torque in starting region and alignment torque in driving region. Therefore, we need the design process considering the trade-off relationship. In this paper, we propose the design process of a single-phase LSPM motor for a high starting torque and efficiency with FEM. And we use Taguchi Method for considering tolerance in manufacture. Finally, we compared the LSPM motor that is designed in this paper and conventional induction motor.

The growth on consideration of energy savings and motor efficiency has caused the LSPM(Line Start Permanent Magnet Motor) to be focused as a substitute for conventional induction motors. A Line start permanent magnet motor able to be driven at synchronous speed is designed based on a single phase induction motor in this paper. The single phase LSPM is identical to the induction motor except a permanent magnet is installed in the rotor. As the permanent magnet influences the characteristics of both transient state and steady state, a design considering both starting and synchronization conditions was used. In this paper, by adopting DOE, a single phase motor has been designed showing high power and smooth start. Also, optimal model is selected by weighting function. And the characteristics demagnetization are analyzed according to the variation of magnet shape. Finally, to verify the design results, a prototype was measured.

The single-phase line start permanent magnet motor(LSPM) have a rotor cage bar for induction starting and permanent magnets, providing synchronous torque. So, LSPM is vary complex and difficult to analysis transient characteristics and rotor design. In this paper, F.E.M analysis about single-phase line start permanent magnet motor and compare of the single-phase line start permanent magnet synchronous motor's transient characteristics by size and position of rotor bar.

This paper is written by research for the transient characteristics of the Single-phase Line-start permanent Magnet. The Single-phase Line-start permanent Magnet is most likely to substitute for Single-phase Induction Motor which is used about many appliance currently, because that has good points. For example, It has a Line-start of ability and a High-efficiency. And it need not power convergence device. The rotor of The Single-phase Line-start permanent Magnet has cage-bar with permanent magnet. This motor is started by cage-bar. When it entered synchronous condition, the rotor is rotated by the permanent magnet. But the design of the permanent magnet is very important, because the breaking torque of the permanent magnet interrupt to start a rotor. Finally, if Flux Barrier is not concerned, we do not get result of our object. Therefore this thesis is concerned about Flux Barrier.

This paper shows the characteristic analysis of single-phase line start permanent magnet (LSPM) motors considering the overhang structure. To achieve the low-cost design of an LSPM motor, the overhang structure is adapted for the rotor with a constraint of a fixed magnet volume. To obtain the dynamic and steady performance of the motor, the circuit parameters are extracted using the 3D-static FEM(Finite Element Method) and the d-q equivalent circuit is used. The performance of the model with overhang is compared with the conventional model without overhang on the condition that both models have a fixed volume for the permanent magnet.

This paper presents the analysis of the effects of non-uniform slots in a line start permanent magnet (LSPM) motor. For purposes of the investigation, the simple formula of $2^{nd}$resistance for rotors having different slot areas is deduced.

The purpose of This paper is the optimal design of a single-phase LSPM(Line-Start Permanent magnet Motor). A single-phase LSPM has a permanent magnet in the rotor that is same as induction motor. For that reason, the transient characteristics are very different from an induction motor Therefore, we need the PM design to consider a transient and steady- state characteristics. In this paper, we designed a single-phase LSPM that has a high power and a good starting characteristics, and analyzed the performance of designed LSPM by varying each parameters. Finally, we examined and compared the simulation results and the prototype motor's characteristics.
