A Current Error Space Phasor (CESP) based hysteresis controller with online computation of the boundary for two-level inverter fed Induction Motor (IM) drives is presented in this paper. The stator voltages estimated along the ${\alpha}$-and ${\beta}$-axes and the orthogonal current error components of the motor are used in the online computation of the hysteresis boundary. All of the inherent benefits of space phasor based hysteresis controllers such as its quick dynamic response and nearby voltage vector switching are present in the proposed scheme with the added benefit of suppressing switching frequency variations. The similarity in the frequency spectrum of the phase voltage obtained at the output of the inverter using the proposed scheme and Bus Clamping Pulse Width Modulation (BCPWM) based drive is justified with the help of extensive MATLAB SIMULINK simulations. The controller is experimentally verified with a three phase, 2.2 kW IM drive for steady state and transient conditions and the obtained results match the simulation results.

This paper presents an improved switching selection method for the direct torque control (DTC) of five-phase induction motors (IMs). The proposed method is conducted using optimal switching selection. A five-phase inverter has 32 voltage vectors which are divided into 30 nonzero voltage vectors and two zero voltage vectors. The magnitudes of the voltage vectors consist of large, medium, and small voltage vectors. In addition, these vectors are related to the torque response and torque ripple. When a large voltage vector is selected in a drive system, the torque response time decreases with an increased torque ripple. On the other hand, when a small voltage vector is selected, the torque response time and torque ripple increase. As a result, this paper proposes an optimal voltage vector selection method for improved DTC of a five-phase induction machine depending on the situation. Simulation and experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.

A linear ultrasonic motor was designed by a combination of the first longitudinal and fourth bending mode, and the motor consisted of a straight aluminum alloys bar bonded with a piezoelectric ceramic element as a driving element. That is,$L_1-B_4$ linear ultrasonic motor can be constructed by a multi-mode vibrator of longitudinal and bending modes. Linear ultrasonic motors are based on an elliptical motion on the surface elastic body, such as bar or plates. In general, the natural resonance frequency of the stator is used as a driving frequency of the motor which provides a large elliptical motion. The corresponding eigenmode of one resonance frequency can be excited twice at the same time with a Phase shift of 90 degrees in space and time. And the rotation can be reversed by changing the phase between the two signals from sin$\omega$t to cos$\omega$t. Moreover, the tangential force pushes the slider(rotor) and, therefore, determines the thrust and speed of the motor. The experimental results of fabrication motors, bimorph-tyPe motor showed more excellent than unimorph-type. The maximum speed of TBL-200, TBL-300, TBL-400, TBL -220, TBL-310 and TBL-420 motors were 0.12, 0.37, 0.39, 0.14, 0.55 and $0.60ms6{-1}$, respectively. And the efficiency were reported 1.15, 7.9, 6.6, 2.36, 10.1 and 16.5%, respectively. That time, output thrust of the motor was a strong(1~2N) and the weight of stator was a lightness(5~7g).

In 3 phase induction motor control system, the speed control using the load torque observer becomes robust against disturbances by means of a feed-forward control of the estimated load torque component. In case of variation of inertia moment, the estimated load torque has error because the observer uses the nominal inertia to estimate the load torque. And so, it is difficult to obtain good speed control characteristics. This paper has two study target strategy. First, we executes feed-forward control with the load torque observer when motor inertia has nominal value and compare it with conventional PI con¬trol. The second strategy estimates inertia moment error using the load torque observer when inertia moment change. The proposed two strategy is confirmed through the computer simulations and the experimental implementations by TMS320C31 microprocessor.

This paper presents a general analytical method for analyzing mechanical unbalance response of unbalanced electromagnetic forces produced in induction motors with an eccentric rotor and a phase unbalance. The equations to be solved are a set of second order differential equations which give matrices with periodic coefficients that are a function of time due to the unbalanced electro-magnetic force. Unbalance response is processed by Newmark $\beta$ method. Two examples are given including an industrial application. The results show that the method proposed is satisfactory.

In this paper, we calculated permanent magnetic linkage flux ${\psi}_{\alpha}$ and Ld, Lq parameters of IPMSM and compared two model which has different barrier width. IPMSM has two kinds of torque that reluctance torque and magnetic torque. In constant torque region, using the Maxwell stress tensor method, we calculated the torque and current phase angle ${\beta}$ which has appeared maximum torque. In weakening flux region, we calculated the current phase angle ${\beta}$ which flux ${\psi}_o$ lower than limited flux ${\psi}_{omax}$. From the current phase angle ${\beta}$, we calculated torque by torque equation and compared two model characteristic.

This paper presents a comparison of core losses for the four cases of Switched Reluctance Motors (SRM) with different winding method and switching sequence. With concentrated winding SRM, two kinds of switching sequence are considered for one-phase exciting and two-phase simultaneously exciting driving. With both distributed winding and toroidal winding, two-phase exciting driving is considered. The ratio of calculated core losses to input power is able to be used a guide or reference for deciding the winding method and switching sequence of in the initial design stage of SRM.

This paper proposes a soft-transition control strategy for a three phase ZCS(Zero Current Switching) inverter circuit. Each phase leg of inverter circuit consists of an LC resonant tank, two main switches, and two auxiliary switches. This paper presents design consideration via a study example of a three phase prototype inverter for motor drives. A simple device tester with zero current switching capability is proposed to select eligible auxiliary switches. The principle of operation, feature and design consideration is illustrated and verified through the experiment with a 2.2kW 5kHz IGBT based experimental circuit.

This paper proposes two SRM driving systems using a variable dc-link voltage controlled by a single-phase inverter. Two SRM converter topologies of a half bridge type and a full bridge type are proposed according to the power circuits of an inverter. The phase current can be controlled by means of a PWM controller at the inverter, and the turn-on/off angle at the phase switches can be controlled by a position sensor at the converter in the drive system. The inverter acts as a peak-current limiter if the transient current exceeds its maximum value. SRMs using the proposed topologies maintain high efficiency due to energy regeneration after the turn-off of power switches. The operational modes of the proposed topologies are verified by simulation and experimental results.
