Rectangular type hybrid step motor is designed to generate thirty percents higher torque than existing step motors. The torque for the motor is generated by the electromagnetic force at the air gap between the stator and rotor. The generating torque is proportioned to the rotor volume, i. e. rotor diameter. The main idea in this study is that the diameter of rotor is increased to generate more torque for the same overall motor size. This motors are manufactured by varying the shape of the teeth width of the stator and rotor. The optimum shape of the teeth is selected from the standpoint as smaller step angular accuracy.

Abstract Increasing awareness of industrial noise pollution and emerging stricter standards have made noise an important topic of research in electric motors. The standard three-phase induction motors. see Fig. 1, (abbreviated further as TPIM) are mass-produced as being simple, robust and rather inexpensive, as opposed to other types of electric motors. Electric motors use over half of all electricity consumed in most countries. Typically motors consume 60∼80 ％ of the electricity for those used In the industrial sector and about 20∼35 ％ of the electricity for those used in the commercial sector. For that is important to know their participation to the noise pollution of the environment and the efficient ways of their noise reduction. Each step in determining the ways for TPIM electromagnetic noise reduction including the methods that highlight their efficiency, are presented and explained.

The primary difficulties encountered in the use of step motors are underdamped response when stopping at a specified position and dynamic instability during high-speed slewing. This paper proposes a speed and position detection scheme using the back EMF generated by the rotating permanent magnet field of a two-phase 1.8.deg. hybrid step motor, and presents its application to the state-variable feedback control of the hybrid step motor. All simulation results in a single step response show that the hybrid step motor performances such as peak overshoot and settling time are greatly improved.

This paper is about the energy efficiency calculation of operating electric motors in production facilities. The most important 1st step to efficient operation of plants is the evaluation of the energy efficiency of the production facilities in that plant. Through this procedure, we can decide that which facilities i.e. induction motors, in this paper, should do maintenance or not. There are mainly 2 types of energy which are used in production facilities, the one is electric energy and the other is heat energy but in order to make calculation simple, in this paper, we are only focusing on electric energy, efficiency and energy loss of the electric motors under operation conditions. As a case study, we chose electric motors in a certain process in a production facilities, and calculated efficiency and loss by using measured data.

Electric drive vehicles (EDV) have received much attention recently because of their environmental and energy benefits. In an EDV, the motor drive system directly influences the performance of the propulsion system. However, the available DC voltage is limited, which limits the maximum speed of the motors. At high speeds, the inverter voltage increases if the square wave (SW) voltage (six-step operation) is used. Although conventional direct torque control (DTC) has several advantages, it cannot work in the six-step mode required in high-speed applications. In this paper, a single-mode seamless DTC for AC motors is proposed. In this scheme, the trajectory of the reference flux changes continuously between circular and hexagonal paths. Therefore, the armature voltage changes smoothly from a high-frequency switching pattern to a square wave pattern without torque discontinuity. In addition, because multi-mode controllers are not used, implementation is more straightforward. Simulation results show the voltage pattern changes smoothly when the motor speed changes, and consequently, torque control without torque discontinuity is possible in the field weakening area even with a six-step voltage pattern.

Energy of wheeled mobile robot is usually supplied by batteries. In order to extend operation time of mobile robots, it is necessary to minimize the energy consumption. The energy is dissipated mostly in the motors, which strongly depends on the velocity profile. This paper investigates various 3-step (acceleration - cruise - deceleration) speed control methods to minimize a new energy object function which considers the practical energy consumption dissipated in motors related to motor control input, velocity profile, and motor dynamics. We performed an analysis on the energy consumption various velocity profile patterns generated by standard control input such as step input, ramp input, parabolic input, and exponential input. Based on these standard control inputs, we analyzed the six 3-step velocity profile patterns: E-C-E, P-C-P, R-C-R, S-C-S, R-C-S, and S-C-R (S means a step control input, R means a ramp control input, P means a parabolic control input, and E means an exponential control input, C means a constant cruise velocity), and suggested an efficient iterative search algorithm with binary search which can find the numerical solution quickly. We performed various computer simulations to show the performance of the energy-optimal 3-step speed control in comparison with a conventional 3-step speed control with a reasonable constant acceleration as a benchmark. Simulation results show that the E-C-E is the most energy efficient 3-step velocity profile pattern, which enables wheeled mobile robot to extend working time up to 50%.

The switched reluctance motors(SRM) are simple and robust in structure. Because the wide range of power and speed, their application field is increasing. In order to design the motors and to evaluate the performance of them properly, an accurate study about the analysis of motor characteristics is required. In this paper, for the analysis of SRM characteristics, the finite element method which is based on the solution of combined equations both the electromagnetic field equations and the circuit equations of stator is adopted. The analysis model is to he assumed two-dimensional and the nonlinear property of magnetic materials is considered by Newton-Raphson method. To verify the usefulness of the proposed algorithm, commercial SRM is chosen and simulated. The computed torques obtained by Maxwell Stress Tensor are compared with the experimental data and it is found that they are in good agreement. By applying the proposed algorithm to two cases, currents of stator and torques at every angular positions of rotor are obtained step by step. Comparing them, one can recognize that torque ripple of SRM can he improved by controlling the switching sequences of driving circuits.

In this paper we addressed the basic concept of microstepping, analyzed the combined effect of the motor detent torque and the current profile, and implemented a microstepping drive system using an one-chip microprocessor, power MOSFET's, and a 1.8 degree bifilar-wound hybrid-type step motor excited by a bipolar drive. Experimental results show that microstepping produces greater resolution, eliminates resonant step loss, and reduces motor vibrations.
