In this paper, a novel 12/14 hybrid pole type bearingless switched reluctance motor (BLSRM) with short flux path and no flux-reversal in the stator is proposed. The proposed BLSRM has separated rotating torque and suspending force poles. Because of independent characteristics between torque and suspending force poles, the torque control can be decoupled from the suspending force control. Due to the short flux path without any reversal flux, compared to the 8/10 hybrid stator pole BLSRM, the output torque is significantly improved and the air-gap is easier to control. Meanwhile, basic design principle for the proposed structure is described. To verify the proposed structure, finite element method (FEM) is employed to get characteristics of the proposed structure and 8/10 hybrid stator pole BLSRM. Based on the analysis, a prototype of the proposed BLSRM is designed and manufactured. Finally, validity of the proposed structure is verified by the experimental results.

This paper presents a design of novel 2-phase 6/5 switched reluctance motor (SRM) for an air-blower application. This type of motor is suitable for the applications that require high speed and only one directional rotation as air-blower. The desired air-blower is unidirectional application, and requires a wide positive torque region without torque dead-zone. In order to get a wide positive torque region without torque dead-zone during phase commutation, asymmetric inductance characteristic with non-uniform air-gap is considered. The proposed motor can be operated at any rotor position. The proposed 6/5 SRM uses short flux path technique that achieved by means of winding configuration and lamination geometry. The purpose of short flux path is to reduce the core loss and the absorption MMF in the stator. The proposed 2-phase 6/5 SRM is verified by finite element method (FEM) analysis and Matlab-Simulink. In order to verify the design, a prototype of the proposed motor was manufactured for practical system.

This paper presents an effective method to improve efficiency of switched reluctance motor by optimizing energy conversion loop. A nonlinear analytical model which takes saturation account is developed to calculate inductance and flux-linkage. The flux-linkage curve is studied to calculate the co-energy increment to obtain the optimum exciting current. For a given cross-section, the exciting current at which co-energy increment is maximum was found to be constant while stack length varies. Then the energy conversion loop was optimized by varying the stack length and turns of windings. The constraints during optimization were that motor was excited by the maximum increment co-energy current and the energy in the loop was determined by rated power of motor. Dynamic finite element analysis was used to evaluate the efficiency of various models and the comparison of results shows promising effects of the proposed method. Experiment was also conducted to validate the simulation result.

A novel 6/5 switched reluctance motor (SRM) with short flux path is presented in this paper. The concept of this proposed motor is a novel SR motor with six stator and five rotor poles. The stator is constructed with three independent and physically separate C-core segments, and the rotor is composed of five poles. This motor, with a new selection for the number of stator/rotor poles, achieves a short flux path, which reduces the magnetomotive force required to drive the motor. To verify the performance of the proposed motor, a comparison with conventional SR motors with the same dimensions is executed. The comparison demonstrates that the proposed motor offers better performance in terms of maximum torque production. Furthermore, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Matlab/Simulink software are used to predict and simulate the performance of the proposed motor.

A hybrid central-WENO scheme is proposed. The fifth order WENO-LF scheme is coupled with a central flux scheme at cell face. Two sub-schemes, the WENO-LF scheme and the central flux scheme, are switched by a weighting function. The efficiency and accuracy of the proposed hybrid central-WENO scheme is validated through several numerical experiments.

This paper presents a new motor design well suited for an advanced exercise bike. The advanced exercise bike setup high demands for performance and physical dimensions, which is high torque, wide speed range and a diameter/length ratio around 5. These requirements makes the new motor design called an E-core Transverse Flu Machine (ETFM) vev interesting because the segmented design of the stator and rotor poles enables high diameter without increasing the flux-path and since the ETFM is similar to the switched reluctance motor, high torque and wide speed range is possible. The design of the ETFM can be peformed using a developed design program, which is also introduced in the paper. A prototype of the exercise bike with the ETFM and a classical H-bridge converter with analog current control is constructed for verification of the concept.

This paper is proposed the modeling and computational methods for estimating the steady and dynamic characteristics of a transverse flux type SRM. Prediction of the steady and dynamic characteristics state of a switched reluctance motor (SRM) drive can be quite involved because of complex interdependent influences between motor parameters and excitation. To obtain characteristics parameters of the transverse flux type SRM which is considered the magnetic non-linearity phenomena, the magnetic equivalent parameters of SRM are computed by the finite element method as functions of the input current and angular displacement. Dynamic characteristics of the designed transverse flux type SRM is simulated and estimated by Matlab/simlunk.
