The classical literature on SR motor design tends to focus on inner-rotor type motor rather than outer-rotor type motor, and dose not provide a complete procedure for configuration of outer-rotor type SR motor calculations that are also needed in every SR motors design. It is interested in the design of SR motors to shortening the magnet flux path in the iron core for reducing the iron loss. The 5 phases outer-rotor type SR Motor with short magnet flux path is introduced in this paper. For this the rotor of prototype is designed in U-form with 8 rotor poles that are in 4 U-forms from one another separate constructed.

In this paper, research on the mold design of motor housing produced by the HPDC process was conducted using computer simulations and experiments. Recently, automobile parts have been required to be light and have high strength. The die casting process was used to manufacture automotive motor housings. In the die casting process, the control of casting defects is very important. However, it has usually depended on the experience of the foundry engineer. For the analysis of the manufacturing process of motor housing, the finite element method is applied. Through the simulations using commercial software, the filling pattern and product defects could be confirmed. The analysis results obtained from the filling behavior of the casting process agreed with the experimental results. The computer simulation results of filling behavior were reflected in the optimal mold design of motor housing.

This paper introduces the development process and investigation of a 60kW induction motor for electric vehicles. We present performance improvement in the induction motor of electric vehicle using copper die-casting based on a multi-gate process. Copper die-casting motors can reduce the size of the motor, the loss of the rotor, and material costs. We also introduce electromagnetic, thermal, mechanical design and analysis results that satisfy the design and the performance requirements. In order to analyze losses accurately of induction motor, commercial finite element analysis is done considering PWM voltage and thermal characteristics by using lumped-circuit parameters. Experimental tests are also carried out to validate the traction motor design.

In accordance with global energy conservation policies such as MEPS (Minimum Energy Performance Standard), electric motor industry is moving to super-high-efficiency machines and research to develop IE4 (International Energy Efficiency Class 4) motors has been launched. In this situation, SynRM (Synchronous Reluctance Motor) has been attracting attention in place of induction motor which hardly provides super premium efficiency. As a result, much research on SynRM is being performed at home and abroad. Also, some products have already been appearing in the market. Compared to induction motor, SynRM has better efficiency per unit area and wider operating range. Although the utilization of control system in synchronous motor results in higher prices, we still need to concentrate on developments of SynRM so as to comply with the new policies. This study demonstrated the electromagnetic design methods of super premium SynRM while maintaining the frame of existing IE3 induction motor. We documented the design procedures for generating high saliency which is the most essential and mechanical stress anlaysis is also treated. In conclusion, we proved the validity of our design by manufacturing and testing our 3 models.

The technique to design high performance small motors has been based on experimental data, which results from lots of cost, experience and time in manufacturing. Recently, as high-performance computer appears, many engineers use numerical methods to design and analyze electric machine. Since, the step motor which has very small air gap(0.02-0.05mm) is different from other electric machine in its structure. The shape of rotor teeth and stator teeth influence seriously on the torque characteristics. And it is operated over magnetic saturation point. Therefore, the design of step motor needs to solve nonlinear problem and to calculate magnetic field precisely. In this paper, we solve nonlinear problem by employing Finite Element Method and obtain torque-displacement characteristics for the design of step motor. We also manufacture VR step motor according to the obtained results, and measure some torque characteristics. Through comparing calculated results with experimental results, it is verified that FEM is very useful to design step motor, and the motor designed by our technique is improved in its step accuracy.

Inchworm linear motor is one of the ultra precision position apparatuses and has many kinds of forms and structures according to the conditions of working space and range. In this paper, the Inchworm linear motor consists of three PZTs(Piezo-electric transducer), three columns ma two plates. finite element method was used to determine the type or hinges installed in column of inchworm linear motor DOE(Design of experiment) was used to determine the optimal design condition of a column by comparing the von-mises stresses according to the change of thickness of hinge, round of hinge, height of arm, angle of v-notch, round of v-notch and thickness of column. From the result, round of hinge, height of arm and thickness of hinge were determined a effective design parameters.

In this paper, actuator based on voice coil motor is designed and estimated to check the capability whether that system is in design specification or not. Design specification is moving range as $20{\times}20mm^2$ a along XY-axis in plane and maximizes bandwidth for high speed. The type of voice coil motor is selected with regarding design specification and minimizes the size of actuator. Flux density of designed voice coil motor is simulated. And PI controller is designed to maximize bandwidth of actuator. Finally, characteristic of designed actuator is simulated and that result reveals the validity of presented design.

To analyze and design a motor magnetic permeance method and numerical methods such as F.E.M. are used. In this thesis, DC motor is analyzed and designed by the permeance method. Modified Carter coefficient and leakage permeance are presented. A magnetic flux path can be approximated properly by using a equivalent ${\pi}$ network representation adding the leakage coefficient. Finally, effective and easy-to-use program is realized. Experimental analysis and design with an actual motor proves that this program produces reliable results. There are many experimental coefficients in this algorithm and it makes some design errors. Using of this program, an motor engineer can obtain satisfactory characteristic and design value by inputting initial data at once.

Cell-phone becomes a necessary communication device in modern society. However, a paging signal by a sound transducer often acts as an unpleasant noise, thus necessitating a paging signal by a vibration motor. The conventional flat type vibration motor uses three-phase windings with three phase coils. In this article, a new design of a vibration motor using a V connection with two phase coils is presented, increasing mass productivity. For electromagnetic field analysis, due to the motor symmetry, two-dimensional modeling can be implemented for fast computation, and performance is predicted by the finite element method. The winding distribution angle turns out to be the most important design parameter for the elimination of dead points, and a new coil configuration is suggested which has no adverse effect on motor size and weight. Experimental tests of vibration confirm the validity of the proposed design.
