In this paper, optimized model was designed for the starting characteristic of the Single-Phase Line-Start Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor by using the Design of Experiment. A field pole angle, thickness and distance from center axis of permanent magnet were selected as design factor. We executed the transient state characteristic analysis of 8 test models. The transient state characteristic analysis was executed by using the 2 dimensional Finite Element Method and the Time Difference Method. We checked the fact that the selected design factor affected starting characteristic of the Line-Start Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor. Depend on this result we found the optimized design point by using the response optimization.

In the moving secondary type linear induction motor(LIM), because the secondary don't get continual thrust, it is difficult to analyze the dynamic characteristics. So we have resolved this problem by using the neural network.

LIM has been developed for use in the industry, transportation, OA, FA because of the merits of direct drive and simple structure. The thrust control of LIM usually has been the average thrust control. However, vector control is required to control the instantaneous thrust force for an accurate positioning and speed control. To obtain dynamic vector control characteristics, it is important to make equivalent circuits which represent exactly LIM In this paper, asymmetrical d-q equivalent circuits is built [1] and vector control characteristics is calculated by simulation using these circuits.

This paper proposed a control strategy for flywheel energy/recovery system with induction machine. The system is based on a vector controlled induction machine driving a flywheel and address the problem of regulating the DC-Link system voltage against input power shut-down. And we proposed the method to damp the oscillation of DC-Link. Experimental results are presented which verify the performance of the strategy.

This paper presents the influence of the airgap tolerance on performance of a linear induction motor. Construction tolerance of the plate affects directly to the cost and performance of the Linear metro. LIM has around 10[mm] large airgap with many restrictions such as construction tolerance, thermal expansion and bend of the reaction plate, abrasion of the wheel, and so on. In order to have steady performance, the airgap should be uniform. But it is impossible to maintain the secondary reaction plate be flat along with the long track. Therefore the influence of the flatness on performance of a LIM should be investigated.

In this paper, electric braking performances of linear induction motor(LIM) designed for propelling the MAGLEV are presented. Regenerative braking is carried out from 110km/h to 20km/h, and plugging which converts the direction of travelling magnetic field is carried out in the low speed region below 20km/h. It is important to reduce attractive force which can affect the magnetic levitation load during regenerative braking or plugging operation mode. So in this paper the braking performances are analyzed by finite element method. As a result, braking force, attractive force, phase current, voltage to frequency patterns and its magnetic fields of braking LIM are presented.

Inverter-fed induction motors (IFM) are prevalent in traction vehicles. However, the winding insulation of IFM is substantially more stressed than of line-powered motors by surge voltages. Consequently, the winding insulation of IFM should be estimated by surge voltages. Also, the weakness of coil insulation can be detected by the surge voltage test. This paper described the insulation evaluation of induction motors by application of surge voltages. A surge voltage generator with the maximum voltage of 5 kV and the selectable rise-time in ranges of $50\;ns\;{\sim}\;500\;ns$ was fabricated. In the experiment, we applied surge voltages into induction motors with the magnitude and the risetime according to IEEE 522. By the analysis of applied surge voltage and current waveforms, we could find difference between normal and defection windings.

This paper is analyzed the effect on characteristics of thrust force of linear induction motor(LIM) by arc type tester. Many kinds of tester have a rotational shape because of a finite length of railroad. Whereas effects by using rotational type tester are generally unknown. For reason of that, this paper is analyzed the effect on characteristics by rotational type tester using 2D finite element method(FEM), and then is compared a thrust force between linear type tester and rotational type tester. Analysis model is decided by numerical modeling for fitting the LIM for propulsion system of light rail, and it is changed to proper arc model. And then we analyzed the arc and the linear model. Consequently, arc type tester is not only useful experiment but also efficient simulation method, and small error is occurred between linear and arc model.

The nonuniform thermal sources of a squirrel cage induction motor are obtained from the losses calculated by the nonlinear complex finite element analysis considering skew effects. Then, temperature rises of the motor are calculated using thermal equivalent network analysis and compared with some experimental values.

In this paper we report test results of the dynamic characteristics of the linear induction motor(LIM) used for propulsion of the UTM-01. To test a vehicle scale LIM, we manufactured a bogie type sled propelled by LIM. In this report, the LIM end effects for both cases when the vehicle is at rest and when the vehicle is running were measured and compared with the calculations. The LIM thrust and the vertical forces were measured by the 3-component load cell and the results were compared with the calculations from measured vertical load and vehicle velocity.
