In this paper, a novel single-phase hybrid switched reluctance motor (HSRM) is proposed for hammer breaker application. The hammer breaker requires only unidirectional rotation and high-speed operation. To satisfy the requirements and eliminate torque dead-zone, the rotor of the proposed 4/4 poles SRM is designed with wider pole arc and non-uniform air-gap. This motor has a simple structure and produces low torque ripple. Permanent magnets (PMs) are mounted on the inner stator at a certain position which enables it to park the rotor for self-start and create positive cogging torque in the torque dead-zone. Compared with conventional single-phase switched reluctance motor, HSRM has an increased torque density and relatively low torque ripple. To verify effectiveness, finite element method (FEM) is employed to analyze the performance of the proposed structure. Then, the proposed motor is compared with the existing motor drive system for the same application. The proposed HSRM is easy to manufacture along with competitive performance.

This paper presents a new approach to the problem of designing a cascaded three-parameters controller for a given linear time invariant (LTI) plant in unity feedback system. We consider a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) and a first-order controller with the specified overshoot and settling time. This problem is difficult to solve because there may be no analytical solution due to the use of low-order controller. Furthermore, the zeros of controller just appear in the zeros of feedback system. The key idea of our method is to impose a constraint on the controller parameters so that the zeros of resulting controller are distant from the dominant pole of closed-loop system to the left as far as the given interval. Two methods realizing the idea are suggested. We have employed the characteristic ratio assignment (CRA) in order to deal with the time response specifications. It is noted that the proposed methods are accomplished only in parameter space. Several illustrative examples are given.

Double-side linear pulse motor(DSLPM) has more advantages than single-side linear pulse motor because noise and vibration can be considerably decreased by countervailing the normal forces, which is generated between two stators and mover. However, DSLPM has more complicated magnetic flux path and layout of stator pole toot/mover tooth rather than single-side linear pulse motor In this paper, DSLPM is designed and fabricated by considering the air gap magnetic density, shape of tooth and slot. In order to verify the characteristics of DSLPM, the air gap magnetic flux density is analyzed by 2D FEM and the magnetic flux path is analyzed by 3D FEM. Also the static thrust forces is obtained with the analyzed results.

In this paper, electromagnetic forces acting on the rotor surface of a BLDC motor for hard disk drive are calculated by the finite element field analysis. The frequency characteristics of torque ripple, local force and unbalanced magnetic force as a source of mechanical vibration area analyzed. Ring-type permanent magnets for the brushless DC motor are apt to have different magnetization levels at each pole because of the unbalanced air gap between the magnet surface and the magnetizer fixture during the multi-poles magnetizing process. This paper discusses the effect of the unsymmetric magnetization distribution in the permanent magnet on the brushless DC motor performances. As a result, the unbalanced magnetic force acting on the rotor surface and the torque ripple are examined for the motor with an unsymmetric magnetization distribution, and compared with those of an ideally symmetric motor.

A superconducting motor consisting of high temperature superconducting (HTS) rotor and air-core stator is under development in Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute. HTS motor was designed for having the rated power of 100hp at 1800 rpm. HTS field winding is composed of sixteen HTS race track shaped coils wound with stainless steel-reinforced Bi-2223 tape conductor by react and wind fabrication method. Nomex Paper was used for electrical insulation. Each of four magnet pole assemblies was constructed with four double pancake sub-coils, mechanically stacked and electrically in series. Four magnet assemblies were fixed on an aluminum support structure to make effective heat transfer. Critical current (Ic) of HTS field winding was 41A but minimum Ic of sub-coils was 35A at 77K and self field. Joule heat generated in HTS field winding was 2.11W at 77K and 35A.

The torque and unbalanced magnetic forces in permanent magnet machines are resultants of the tangential, axial and normal magnetic forces, respectively. Those are in general influenced by pole-teeth-winding configuration. A study of the torque and unbalanced magnetic forces of a small flux concentrating permanent magnet transverse flux machine (FCPM-TFM) in segmented compact structure is presented in this paper. By using FLUX3D software from Cedrat, Maxwell stress tensor has been solved. Finite element (FE-) magneto static study followed by transient analysis has been conducted to investigate the influence of unsymmetrical winding pattern, in respect to the rotor, on the performance of the FCPM-TFM. Calculating the magnetic field components in the air gap has required an introduction of a 2D grid in the middle of the air gap, whereby good estimations of the forces are obtained. In this machine, the axial magnetic forces reveal relatively higher amplitudes compared to the normal forces. Practical results of a prototype motor are demonstrated through the analysis.

This paper discusses methods for the torque ripple and noise reduction of DC motors for automotive air-conditioning based on electromagnetic field analysis. The target of the motor is a blower motor, and to reduce cogging torque and the torque ripple, the optimum model was selected by deforming the brush or commutator shape. In addition, to reduce the cogging torque, the model design was carried out by applying the skew method and the magnetization method of a magnet to the rotor. For optimization, the shape, material, and drive system of the motor were selected using an electromagnetic field as the analysis tool, and the method of reducing the cogging torque was applied to 4-pole, 12- and 13-slot motors considering the mechanical part. Lastly, this paper confirmed thatthemethod, which proposed how much noise, cogging torque, and vibration are reduced, improves through practical analysis.

Due to the asymptotic Property, deadbeat control can hardly be applied to the continuous time system control. But some delay element method can deal such a problem. Besides delay element nan well-known digital deadbeat control can be used by the aid of some smoothing elements. in this paper, 2nd order smoothing element is used for the smoothing or the digital deadbeat controller. And this element is argumented to the plant and so control problem is to control digitally the argumented system. We simulated this control system using Matlab language and finally apply this algorithm to the rotary inverted pendulum system.

In this paper, a BLDC(Brushless DC) motor control system for driving fins to control the flight attitude of the guided artillery munition is developed. This system adopts a sensorless control scheme without any position sensor such as a Hall sensor fragile at high altitudes. The sensorless control of the BLDC motor is achieved by using commutation signals obtained from the measured pole voltages. The position control of the fin is also performed by using of the estimated speed from the commutation signals. The experimental results on the actual fin drive system demonstrated that the developed sensorless control algorithm can give an excellent position control performance.
