In this paper, a novel bearingless switched reluctance motor (BLSRM) with hybrid stator poles is proposed. The structure and operating principle are presented. In order to describe the design methodology clearly, analytical torque and radial force models are established. Further, basic design procedure is described. The numbers of phases and poles have important influence on the selection of structure. These effects, along with sizing of machine envelope and internal dimensions, make the machine design an insight-intensive effort. Effect of pole arcs and air-gap length on the production of torque and radial force are analyzed in detail. Mechanical design factors such as hoop stress and first critical speed are also considered. Based on the above analysis, the characteristics of the proposed BLSRM are analyzed. A prototype motor is designed and manufactured. The validity of the proposed structure is verified by the experimental results.

Modeling and control of radial force in the double stator type bearingless switched reluctance motor (BLSRM) is researched. The rotational torque is controlled independently from the radial force control. And the radial force is constant which is independent from the rotor position. In order to realize steady suspension, analytical models of torque and radial force for the proposed structure are derived. Meanwhile, in order to realize steady suspension, control scheme for proposed BLSRM is proposed. In the control method, the radial force can be controlled in arbitrary direction and magnitude by selecting some combinations of radial force windings. The validities of structure and control method are verified by the experimental results.

In this paper, a novel bearingless switched reluctance motor (BLSRM) with double stator is proposed. This motor has two stators. Torque stator is outside, which mainly produces rotational torque. Radial force stator is inside, which mainly generates radial force to suspend the rotor. A novel structure and operating principle are presented. And characteristics of the proposed structure such as magnetic flux distribution, inductance, torque and radial force are analyzed through finite element method. From the analysis, the proposed BLSRM has linear characteristic of radial force and independence from torque current.

기존의 헬리콥터 로터 시스템에서 기계적 힌지/베어링 부품을 복합재 빔 구성품으로 대체하여 중량과 부품수를 줄인 무베어링 허브 시스템을 설계하였으며, 그 중 중요 구성품인 유연보와 토크튜브에 대한 피로 안전수명 해석을 수행하였다. VABS를 이용한 2차원 단면 해석 수행을 통해 인장, 굽힘 및 뒤틀림 강성을 도출하였으며 2차원 탄성 보 모델에 대한 단면 구조해석 방법을 적용하여 각 단면에 발생하는 변형율을 계산하였다. 각 복합재 소재에 대한 S-N 곡선을 Wohler equation을 적용하여 생성하였으며, 정적구조해석을 통해 피로파손에 취약할 것으로 판단되는 영역에 대한 피로해석을 수행하였다. 헬리콥터 운영시로부터 구성품에 발생하는 하중은 CAMRAD II를 통해 계산하였으며, 하중해석 결과를 HELIX/FELIX 표준 하중 스펙트럼에 적용하여 무베어링 로터 허브 시스템의 하중 스펙트럼을 생성한 후, 이를 통해 최종적으로 피로 안전수명을 산출하였다.

이 논문에서는 무베어링 로터의 동특성을 비회전 강성 및 진동수 측정 시험과 회전 훨타워 시험을 통해 살펴보았다. 무베어링 로터의 주요 구성품인 블레이드, 유연보, 토크튜브에 대해 강성 및 고유진동수를 측정하여 해석을 위한 물성치를 확보하였고, 훨타워 시험 전에 댐퍼와 스너버를 장착한 무베어링 로터를 조립하여 지상에서 하중이 부가되는 조건하에 기능시험을 수행하여 로터 구성품간의 간섭 여부, 기구학적 거동 등을 확인하였다. 4개의 블레이드를 가지고 회전반경이 5.82m인 무베어링 로터의 회전 동특성시험을 회전면 높이가 9.65m인 훨타워에서 수행하였다. 정지비행성능을 확인하기 위해 추력과 사용동력을 측정하였으며, 회전시 블레이드의 고유진동수 및 감쇠를 측정하기 위해 유압 가진기를 통하여 사이클릭 가진을 하였다.

The stiffness and natural frequencies for blades, flexbeam, and torque tube of bearingless rotor system are measured to determine the material input properties such as mass distributions and stiffness distribution for the rotor dynamics and load analysis. The flap stiffness, lag stiffness, and torsional stiffness are calculated by measuring section strain or twist angle, gages position, and applied loads through bending and twist tests. The modal tests are undertaken to find out the natural frequencies for flap, lag, torsion modes in non-rotating conditions. The stiffness values and mass properties are tuned and updated to match prediction frequencies to the measured frequencies. The rotorcraft comprehensive code(CAMRAD II) is used to analyze the natural frequencies of the specimens. The analysis results with the updated material properties agree well with the measured frequencies. The updated properties will be used to analyze the rotor stability, dynamic characteristics and loads for the rotor rotation test in a whirl tower.

In this paper, a novel 12/14 hybrid pole type bearingless switched reluctance motor (BLSRM) with short flux path and no flux-reversal in the stator is proposed. The proposed BLSRM has separated rotating torque and suspending force poles. Because of independent characteristics between torque and suspending force poles, the torque control can be decoupled from the suspending force control. Due to the short flux path without any reversal flux, compared to the 8/10 hybrid stator pole BLSRM, the output torque is significantly improved and the air-gap is easier to control. Meanwhile, basic design principle for the proposed structure is described. To verify the proposed structure, finite element method (FEM) is employed to get characteristics of the proposed structure and 8/10 hybrid stator pole BLSRM. Based on the analysis, a prototype of the proposed BLSRM is designed and manufactured. Finally, validity of the proposed structure is verified by the experimental results.

A bearingless linear motor(BLLM) which consists of two stators and a common mover is able to levitate and move its mover without any linear bearing or even additive windings. In the previous study, BLLM was actively controlled on the translation and pitch motion, while the roll motion is passively stable. In order to control the roll motion, this paper suggests adding active magnetic bearings(AMBs) at bottom of the mover in BLLM. The AMBs control the roll motion and also partially supports the weight of the mover. In this paper, magnetic forces generated by the AMBs are estimated by using an FEM model. Based on the analysis results, the bias current of the AMBs is determined and a PD controller is designed. Through an experimental levitation test, it was verified that roll motion is well controlled by AMB during levitation.
