A PWM inverter with an induction motor often has a problem with a high frequency leakage current that flows through stray capacitor between stator windings and a motor frame to ground. This paper presents an equivalent circuit for high frequency leakage currents in PWM inverter feeding an induction motor, which forms an LCR series resonant circuit. A conventional common mode ckoke or reactor in series between the ac terminals of a PWM inverter and those of an ac motor is not effective to reduce the rms and average values of the leakage current, but effective to reduce the peak value. Furthermore, this paper proposes a leakage current damper which is different in damping principle from the conventional common mode choke. It is shown theoretically and experimentally that the leakage current damper is able to reduce the rms value of the leakage current to 25%, where the core used in the leakage current damper is smaller than that of the conventional common-mode choke

The recent advancement in the power electronic technique has increased the use of induction motor fed by inverter using high-frequency switching devices. Also the tendency is toward larger size and higher voltage. Therefore, The IGBT (Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistor) that is high switching frequency element has been using increase. But, The switching surge voltage was occurred by high switching frequency of inverter has appeared a voltage doubling in the motor input terminal due to mismatching of cable characteristic impedance and motor characteristic impedance. Actually, The Switching surge voltage became the major cause to occur the insulation failure by serious voltage stress in the stator winding of induction motor. The short during rise time of switching surge and cable length is increased, the maximum transient voltage seen at the motor terminals increases. In this paper, Analyzed switching surge transient voltage of power cable pulling is used EMTP(Electromagnetic Transient Program) at the induction motor terminal and in cable.

This paper presents the acoustic noise and mechanical vibration reduction of a coreless brushless DC motor with an air dynamic bearing used in a digital lightening processor. The coreless brushless DC motor does not have a stator yoke or stator slot to remove the unbalanced force caused by the interaction between the stator yoke and the rotor magnet. An unbalanced force makes slotless brushless DC motors vibrate and mechanically noisy, and the attractive force between the magnet and the stator yoke increases power consumption. Also, when a coreless brushless DC motor is driven by a $120^{\circ}$ conduction type inverter, high frequency acoustic noise occurs because of the peak components of the phase currents caused by small phase inductance and large phase resistance. In this paper, a core-less brushless DC motor with an air dynamic bearing to remove mechanical vibration and to reduce power consumption is applied to a digital lightening processor. A $180^{\circ}$ conduction type inverter drives it to reduce high frequency acoustic noise. The applied methods are simulated and tested using a manufactured prototype motor with an air dynamic bearing. The experimental results show that a coreless brushless DC motor has characteristics of low power consumption, low mechanical vibration, and low high frequency acoustic noise.

Recently, the motor-integrated spindle systems have been used to simplify the machine tool structure, to improve the motion flexibility of machine tool, and to perform the high-speed machining. In this study, a static and dynamic analysis system for motor-integrated high-speed spindle systems is developed based on Timoshenko theory, finite element method and windows programming techniques. Since the system has various analysis modules related to static deformation analysis, modal analysis, frequency response analysis, unbalance response analysis and so on, it is useful in performing systematically the design and evaluation processes of motor-integrated high-speed spindle systems under windows GUI environment.

The important problem in the high speed spindles is to reduce and minimize the thermal effect by the motor and ball bearings. Thermal characteristics according to the bearing preload and hollow shaft cooling are studied for the spindle with the oil mist lubrication and high frequency motor. Temperature distribution and thermal deformation according to the spindle speed, preload and flow rate are measured by thermocouple and gap sensor. Temperature distribution and thermal deformation are analyzed by using the finite element method. The results of analysis are compared with the measured data. This paper show that the suitable preload and hollow shaft cooling are very effective to minimize the thermal effect by the motor and ball bearings. This study indicates that temperature distribution and thermal deformation of the high speed spindle system can be estimated reasonably by using the three dimensional model through the finite element method and supports thermal optimization and more effective cooling method.

In this study, the way how we can find the defects of motor windings in advance will be discussed. The magnetic flux spectrum in the high frequency region of the large motor was analyzed based on the actual fault practices related with motor windings. In case of defective motor relative amplitude ratio of the stator slot frequency to its sideband was very high compared to that of healthy motor. And the defective signal related with motor windings was indicated in advance in the magnetic flux spectrum prior to over 1 month before failure. Considering this aspect it can be estimated that magnetic flux spectrum in the high frequency region has the excellent predictive diagnostic capability.
