This paper presents the characteristics analysis of an electromagnetic pump using a linear induction motor(LTM). The characteristics of the pump for three molten metals Is analyzed by the magneto hydro dynamics: flow velocity, flow mass and etc. The result of the analysis is that the flow velocity for three molten metals is over 0.3[m/s] at the center of duct.

In the case of a Linear Induction Motor (LIM), numerical analysis method like Finite Element Method (FEM) has been mainly used to analyze the travelling magnetic field problem which includes the velocity-induced electromotive force. If the problem including the velocity-induced electromotive force is analyzed by FEM using the Galerkin method, the solution can be oscillated according to the Peclet Number, which is determined by conductivity, permeability, moving velocity and size of mesh. Consequently, the accuracy of the solution can be low and the vortexes of flux can be occurred at the secondary back-iron. These vortexes of the flux occurred at the secondary back-iron does not exist physically, but it can be occurred in the analysis. In this case, the vortexes of the flux can be generally removed by using Up-Wind method which is impossible to apply a conventional S/W tool (Maxwell 2D). Therefore, in this paper, authors examined the vortexes of the flux occurred at the secondary back-iron of the LIM according to variations of the Peclet Number, and analyzed whether these vortexes of the flux affect on the dynamic force characteristics of the LIM or not.

This paper is analyzed the effect on characteristics of thrust force of linear induction motor(LIM) by rotational 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 will be analyzed the effect on characteristics by rotational type tester using 2D finite element method(FEM), and then will be compared a thrust force between linear type tester and rotational type tester.

This paper presents the analysis of the analysis of thrust characteristics of linear induction motors(LIMs) according to secondary reaction plate. LIMs are well known as high speed transport systems, which can obtain thrust directly without gears and links, or auxiliary mechanisms. A simple structure, easy maintenance, and less environmental pollution are advantages of LIMs. In transport systems using LIMs, the secondary reaction plate is an important design factor, because it has considerable impact on the cost of the railway as well as the performance of the LIMs.

Linear induction motors have static and dynamic end effects due to its finite core length, so that per-phase impedances are asymmetric and the air gap flux distribution is distorted. Because of these points the d-q equivalent circuit model considering both end effects has not been exactly completed. So this paper proposes a characteristic analysis method considering both static and dynamic end effect of the LIM. This method is to utilize asymmetric d-q equivalent circuit model with dynamic end effect coefficient. As a result, it is shown that the simulation results have a good agreement with experimental ones.

Linear induction motors are characterized by a large air gap and, as a result, large leakage inductances. Moreover, due to its unslotted structure and the absence of end rings in the secondary part, the equivalent circuit parameter calculation is very difficult. Therefore this paper introduces the new method of equivalent circuit parameter and analyzes dynamics characteristic of single-sided LIM

This paper presents a new method for multiobjective optimization using Genetic Algorithm-Sexual Reproduction Model(SR model). In SR model, each individual consists of chromosome pairs. Sex cells(gametes) are produced through artificial meiosis in which crossover and mutation occur, The proposed method has two selection operators, one, individual selection which selects the individual to fertilize, and the other, gamete selection which makes zygote for offspring production, The two selection schemes are repectively conducted according to different fitness(or objective) function and consequently give a solution which is unbiased to any objectives. We apply the proposed method to optimization of the design parameters of Linear Induction Motor(LIM) and show its effectiveness.

This study aims at analyzing the flow characteristics of the electromagnetic pump using a linear induction motor (LIM) for transferring molten metals. The flow characteristics of the pump are simulated by magnetohydrodynamic(MHD) program. In this system, the LIM is used for transferring molten metal by electromagnetic force. The molten metal is treated as the secondary part of the LIM. Since the LIM produces an electromagnetic force in the duct, the molten metal can flow from the furnace to the reservoir. The flow characteristics of the pump are analyzed using MHD program for magnetic field of 0.1[T] in duct. In order to prove the analysis, we made a prototype electromagnetic pump using LIM.

In this study, a variety of characteristics is considered when LIM for transit is driven with acceleration and deceleration. From the characteristics of constant voltage, with V/f ratio fixed, slip frequency is derived. With slip frequency of 12[Hz] and objective velocity of 40[km/h], the robust control characteristics which are generated constant thrust and normal force, except for open-loop control interval, are obtained.
