This paper presents a new time-stepping 3-D analysis method coupled with an external circuit with motion equation for dynamic transient analysis of induction machines. In this method, the magneto-motive force (MMF) generated by induced current is modeled as a passive source in the magnetic equivalent network. So, by using only scalar potential at each node, the method is able to analyze induction machines with faster computation time and less memory requirement than conventional numerical methods. Also, this method is capable of modeling the movement of the mover without the need for re-meshing and analyzing the time harmonics for dynamic characteristics. From comparisons between the results of the analysis and the experiments, it is verified that the proposed method is capable of estimating the torque, harmonic field, etc. as a function of time with superior accuracy.

Generally PI controller is used in the servo system, But the time response of the system which is designed by the PI control scheme is deviated from the desired time response by the system parameter variation or the perturbation like the torque disturbance. LMFC(Linear Model Following Controller) is used to make the response of the system follow that of the model even though the parameter variation or the perturbation exists. In this paper, the design method which uses auxiliary model to construct the robustness enhancer in LMFC is proposed. And this robustness enhancer is designed by robust control theory. The proposed method has facter convergence time against low frequency torque disturbance than LMFC. The results are verified by SIMULINK simulation and experiments.

This paper presents a method that optimizes the teeth shape of linear induction motor. Independent variables are x-coordinate change of four nodes at each tooth, and its objective function is thrust at start. As a result, linear induction motor with high quality which its thrust increases up to 10% per pole can be designed.

This paper deals with experimentation on static test of linear induction motor for the propulsion system of UTM(Urban Transit Maglev). It is very important that vertical force zero effects to levitation field of maglev. Because it is continuous for air gap 11mm of levitated maglev vehicle. Then we found the slip frequency that the vertical force zero due to it is variable. Thus we had compared between simulation value and experiment value for lim by static test Jig.

This paper presents the optimum design of the slit type linear induction motor(LIM). For the analysis of the slit type LIM, as the boundary problem, the equivalent circuit is composed from the analysis method given the slit pitch boundary condition. Using the deterministic method and the stochastic method among the optimization methods, each of the optimum design variables is derived. The analysis result by the proposed method is compared with the experimental result.

Instantaneous thrust control of linear induction motor(LIM) is needed to control its speed and position more accurately. In the vector control of LIM, it is hard to calculate flux angle exactly because of end effects of LIM. So in this paper direct vector control method is utilized to control speed of LIM. The airgap magnetic flux angle measured by hall sensors is transferred directly into coordinate transformer. As a result, some experimental values of direct vector control using DSP are shown.

In this paper, direct thrust control(DTC) scheme is applied to a linear induction motor(LIM) with cage-type secondary. The line voltages and phase currents are detected and a thrust correction coefficient considering the end effect of the LIM is introduced in order to Improve the accuracy of thrust estimation in the DTC implementation. Experimental results for thrust and flux responses are presented.

This paper presents the flow characteristics in the fluid circulation loop using the tubular type linear induction motor(TLIM) electromagnetic pump. A TLIM pump was designed using the equivalent and genetic algorithm for the flow system of 40[1/min]. The flow characteristics are analyzed by coupling the Maxwell equations with the Navier-Stokes equation. The analysis algorithm also takes account of the effects of the thrust. The flow characteristics are analysed with the proposed method and compared with the commercial program and experiment and discussed.

It is necessary to modify the state-of-the-art of speed control theory because of the phase asymmetry in the Linear Induction Motor (LIM)and for the constant speed control of mover using single vector control inverter system, it is important that primary stack is located in appropriated intervals in the 3D conveyer system using LIM. The dynamic characteristic analysis method of the vector controlled LIM using coupled FEM and control algorithm taking into account the movement is proposed. The focus of this paper is the analysis relative to selecting primary stack intervals in order to constant speed control in the 3D conveyer system using LIM.

In this study, slip frequency control for a single-sided linear induction motor(SLIM) is discussed. We adopted variable slip frequency pattern in stead of constant slip frequency pattern under V/f constant mode, which is effective in improving driving efficiency of SLIM. And the dynamic characteristics are analyzed by using equivalent circuit during the accelerating time.
