This paper deals with the cost reduction design of a single-phase line-start permanent magnet(LSPM) motor. Due to high cost of the permanent magnet(PM), cost reduction can be effectively achieved by reducing PM volume. Therefore, motor characteristics according to the PM volume are calculated by using d-q axis equivalent circuit analysis, and the characteristic map is made. In the characteristic map, maximum torque and efficiency are shown according to motor parameters such as back electromotive force(back emf) and inductances; back emf represents the PM volume. Minimum back emf and inductances satisfying output performance are determined in the characteristic map. Then, motor geometry based on the prototype motor is optimized to get the determined parameters using response surface methodology(RSM) and finite element method(FEM). Through the presented cost reduction design, total PM volume is reduced to 32% of prototype model.

This paper presents a new sensorless control method for single-phase switched reluctance motors using induced electromotive force (EMF) due to the residual flux both on the stator and the rotor during phase commutation. The induced EMF falls to zero when the rotor pole moves away from the overlap with the stator pole. By detecting this instant, the speed and position of the rotor can be simply estimated. This method is very simple to implement and it is insensitive to variations in the system parameters as it does not require any stored magnetic data or offline inductance measurements but requires only measurements of the terminal voltage and a simple analog circuit. The proposed method is implemented on a 6/6 single-phase switched reluctance motor. However, it can also be implemented on a multiphase SRM regardless of the size, operation speed and switching mode of the motor hence making the proposed method viable to many applications. Simulation and experimental verification is provided to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method.

Most of the loads in industrial power distribution systems are balanced and connected to three power systems. However, in the user power distribution systems, most of the loads are single & three phase and unbalanced, generating voltage unbalance. Voltage unbalance is a condition in a polyphase system in which the rms values of the line-to-line voltages or the phase angles between consecutive line-to-line voltages, are not all equal. Slight voltage unbalance generates a disproportionately high current unbalance at the motor stator winding. This paper presents a scheme on operation states of a three-phase induction motor under unbalanced voltages. The three-phase voltages applied to the stator winding of the studied induction motor are controlled by respectively adjusting the magnitude and phase angle of each phase. The voltage unbalanced factor(VUF) of the three-phase source voltages can then be varied to examine the different values of VUF on machine's operation characteristics.

In previous structure of single phase LSPM, there is large torque ripple that makes a noise and a vibration by a distortion of flux distribution in air gap. By this reason, the single phase LSPM is not accepted home applications. So, in this paper, we propose new structure of single phase LSPM(Line Start Permanent magnet Motor). The proposed model is reduced a torque ripple about a half than previous model.

This paper proposes an algorithm for reducing the starting current when the single-phase induction motor starts and analyzes its operation. Generally, the single-phase induction motors require several starters to generate the starting torque due to their structural characteristics. In this paper, a capacitor-start / capacitor-run method of the single-phase induction motor is basically adopted. This conventional method is efficient and has a large starting torque, but it generates about 5 ~ 6 times of inrush current at startup. As a result, the freezer starting device and peripheral devices are damaged and life time may be reduced. To reduce the inrush current, the current control algorithm based on the virtual dq model is presented to control the starting current. In addition, it validates the proposed algorithm through experiments to smooth transit from start-up operation to the rated operating region.

This paper deals with a three-phase Pulse width Modulation(PWM) voltage souse inverter-induction motor drive with a single-phase PWM converter. The single-phase system has the pulsating instantaneous power with twice the frequency of the ac source. The power pulsation generates the dc voltage pulsation of the converter. In result, the waveforms of the inverter output current and voltage are distorted. The steady-stare operations of the system are analyzed by employing a state-spare method Such everything confirmed it's validity throughout simulation and experiment.

This paper proposes the analysis method for the pole change motor that is a capacitor-run single-phase induction motor. As the Magneto motive force(MMF) at 2-role becomes severe distortion, it is necessary to consider the harmonics for the characteristic analysis of the motor. Therefore, the performance of motor is analyzed by equivalent circuit considering the harmonic components. The validity of the proposed analysis method for the pole change motor is verified through simulations and experimental results.

This paper presents numerical analysis by omputer for the steady state characteristics of the single phase reluctance motor driven by the bridge type SCR inverter and also the experiments were carried out to verify the numerical analysis data for the current, voltage, and torque of the motor. It shows that the inductance of the inverter, the capacity of the commutation condenser and the frequency of the inverter have great effects to the magnitude and wave form of the motor terminal voltage and current. It is clear that the capacity of the commutation condenser and the inductance of the inverter circuit have to be adequately selected in order to stabilize the motor operation.

The main focus of this paper is the analysis on the controlling characteristics of self-excited D.C. motor driven by thyristor chopper. The controlling characteristics of short shunt compound motor driven by poly phase multiple thyristor chopper is better than that of driven by single phase thyristor chopper. And we got the following conclusions. A. Motor current capacity could be increased by the multiplicity n increase. B. Speed-torque characteristics is linear and adquate for constant Horsepower motor. C. Maximum current Riple ratio is proportional to almost inverse m$^{2}$. Also here shows the stable conditions and semiconducterlize datas for controlling the self-excited D.C. motor driven by thyristor chopper.
