The accurate determination of induction motor efficiency depends on the estimation of the five losses of stator and rotor copper loss, iron loss, mechanical loss and stray load loss. As the mechanical and stray load losses are not calculated by electro-magnetic analysis, the values of these two losses are very important in induction motor design. In this paper, the values of mechanical loss and stray load loss are proposed through investigating testing data from commercial products of three phase induction motors under 37kW. If the values of this paper are applied to motor design, the accuracy of design and analysis can be improved. The losses of motors are obtained by using load and no-load test results following IEC 60034-2-1 standard.

In this paper, we investigate the main components of stray load loss of induction motors for ammonia compressors. The variations of the losses at each part of the motor due to load are calculated by the combined 3-D-2D finite element method formulated by the mixed moving coordinate systems. The stray load loss is calculated from these results due the definition of IEEE standard-112. It is clarified that the core loss and the eddy current loss of the can increase due to load, which can be considered as the main part of the stray load loss.

This paper presents a method to reduce the stray loss of core Tie-Plate of distribution power transformer. The method combines a 3-dimensional FEM with PSO(Particle Swarm Optimization) algorithm to determine the shape of the Tie-Plate that minimizes eddy current and flux-leakage losses. To verify the method a 24MVA distribution(cast-resin) transformer was simulated using one objective function and two design variables with some constraints. The final optimized Tie-Plate has nine($3{\times}3$) slots of 10mm width, 15mm thickness and 25mm distance. After four iterations, the Tie-Plate loss was reduced to about 21 % of the original.

In this paper, through the theoretical study on reducing method and analysis of stray load loss of induction motor, we suggest the improved design considering the slot combination, skew, air gap and manufacturing method. For verifying the suggested design, the test was performed by IEEE 112. As a result, the reducing technology on the stray load loss was established.

In this study, we present a venting clip for high-power applications that is intended to reduce stray inductance. To reduce the stray inductance of packages in high-power applications, the proposed venting clip features slots are inserted onto a conventional clip. A conventional clip and the proposed venting clip were designed and fabricated to compare the respective stray inductance. The inductance of the proposed venting clip was approximately 15.8% than that of the conventional clip at a frequency of 100 kHz. Through a comparison between the conventional and venting clips, it is confirmed that the proposed venting clip is superior for high-power applications in terms of decreasing inductance. With reduced inductance, the switching-loss for such applications is also expected to decrease. Moreover, the impedance of the venting clip decreased by approximately 15.5% compared with that of the conventional clip at a frequency of 100 kHz. The venting clip, which has reduced resistive component, is also expected to decrease conduction loss in highpower applications.

An analysis of a new load resonant inverter considering stray inductance is given. There are several different types for load resonant inverters. They can offer zero turn-on as well as zero turn-off switching losses, yielding high efficiency at high power and high frequencies. However, they didn't consider the influences of stray inductance. In conventional topology using lossless snubber capacitor, stray inductances result in very high frequency resonant current. Especially, these influences can be problematic in high power system such as induction heating system with large current of some 10A associated with it. These currents increase EMI problem, give harmful effects in gate driver's operation and increase loss of dc-link capacitor as well as snubber capacitor. Therefore, the effect of stray inductances should be treated and reduced. This paper presents a new load resonant inverter topology, which can reduce the effect of stray inductances.

In this paper, a tie-plate shape is optimized by using the numerical technique to reduce the stray load loss of the tie-plate which is a mechanical structure for assembling and supporting of the transformer core. The eddy current loss of the structure is calculated by an electromagnetic field FEM program and the results are compared with 4 different shapes of tie-plates. Since the thickness of the tie-plate is very thin, and the skin depth is very small, the number of FE elements for 3-D transformer model is too big to solve. So, the surface impedance boundary condition (SIBC) is used to reduce the system matrix size and its computing time. To verify the method a 2.5 MVA 22,900/380V distribution transformer is simulated using one objective function and three design variables with some constraints. The final optimized tie-plate has three slots of 6 mm width and 23 mm gap, and the loss is reduced by 75 %. Consequently, the proposed algorithm seems to be considerably applicable to electric machinery as well as power transformer.

The fractional slot windings are widely used in rotating machine in order to increase the flexibility of design and improve the voltage waveform. However, the MMF wave of fractional-slot windings are found to contain unique harmonic component, which are designated as even order space flux harmonics, fractional number flux harmonics, or both. They may cause stray loss and stator core vibration. This paper proposes new winding methods "novel interspersed windings" and "expanded group windings" to reduce these harmonics. The advantages of two proposed windings are verified by using numerical analysis and measurement test of winding model.

The precise and reliable loss model for induction motor and converter system is very important in order to predict the efficiency performance of variable speed drives. This paper proposes an accurate loss model of induction motor and converter system. The motor losses, such as stator and rotor copper loss, core loss and stray loss, are considered for fundamental and harmonic frequencies. Also considered are the skin effect on rotor resistance, temperature effect on bath stator and rotor resistance, magnetizing inductance saturation, and friction and windage loss. All the above features are incorporated in a synchronous frame dynamic d-q equivalent circuit. The converter system, consisting of a diode rectifier and PWM transistor inverter, is modeled accurately for conduction and switching losses. Validity of the models, in both steady state and transient conditions, is verified by simulations.

The standards of the capacitance arc measured and analyzed by the dry nitrogen or mica film as a dielectric. In this paper, respectively the standard capacitors of 10 pF and 100 pF for the establishment of the dielectric loss tangent are made by $Al_{2}O_{3}$ crystal disc with the low dielectric loss tangent, and then measured the dielectric loss tangent with precision. To regard for the existence of capacitances just in the dielectric, 3-terminal configuration electrode is used. With using the 2D electric field simulator, precise design values are derived in addition to stray capacitance. As stated above method, respectively the standards of the capacitances with 10 pF and 100 pF arc made with the low dielectric loss tangent less than $10^{-4}$.
