This paper deals with two kinds of novel shape switched reluctance motors (SRM) with magnetic barriers in order to improve operating performances of prototype. The magnetic barriers make rotor poles more saturated, and consequently inductance profiles are distorted. The changed inductance affects input current shape and eventually torque characteristics. In order to analyze the complicated flux pattern of the SRM with magnetic barriers and its terminal characteristics simultaneously, coupled field circuit modeling method is used. The finite element method is used to model the nonlinear magnetic field, and coupled to the circuit model of the SRM overall system. After experimental results are presented to prove the accuracy of the method, the several analysis results are compared, and the improved rotor shape is presented.

In this paper, the power factor correction circuit using a parallel drive method is proposed so that the high power inverter air-conditioner with 3[hp] compressor motor may obtain the cost down and the improved performance. The adequate design porcedures are presented to reduce the material costs by eliminating the power factor imprving LC filter and derating output capacitor and inverter switches. Using the determined components. the proto-type circuit with 6[kW] power consumption is built and tested to verify the operation of the proposed circuit.

This paper presents the characteristics of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) based on 3D Equivalent Magnetic Circuit Network Method (3D EMCNM). 3D EMCNM supplements magnetic equivalent circuit by numerical technique using distributive magnetic circuit parameters. However in case of SRM the previous 3D EMCNM which uses fan shape element is not proper for analysis. This paper solved this problem by developing the trapezoid element and verified the validity of the suggested element by comparing the results of 3D EMCNM with 2D FEM.

The first objective of this study is to set up the switching surge analysis method in motor driving distribution system. The simplified model which can simulate the motor energization and circuit breaker re-ignitions, and each circuit element model is presented in this paper. The second objective is to calculate the quantify of surge over-voltage in real nuclear power station. And the surge suppressing measures are verified on the simulation basis. It is clarified that most cases are not satisfactory to meet the IEEE standard 522-1992 without using surge suppressing measures. In cases that the surge arrester are installed in distribution board at the load side of circuit breaker. The IEEE specification is fully met.

This paper introduces major potential faults of IPMSM and their simulation realization methods. The faults of IPMSM, generally, contain single-phase open circuit, single-phase or 3-phase short circuit, and uncontrolled generation. When different fault occurs, the circuit of total system including motor and inverter also will be changed. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze and establish independent model for each kind of fault. In this paper, first, the drive circuit is analyzed as different fault type. Then, the corresponding simulation results solved in Simulink@MATLAB are given. The absence of experiment results leads that the veracity of simulation results can not be verified, but the tendency will be explained by theory analysis.

Because of its cost effectiveness, the Brushless DC Motor(BLDCM) is focused by the industry these days. Considering the constant back-EMF region of the BLDCM, only a simple position information should be provided for constant torque control. From this point of view, using expensive position sensors, such as encoder, resolver, etc, decreases the cost effectiveness of the BLDCM. The Proposed detecting circuit detects position of zero crossing point(ZCP) then relative position could be calculated from ZCP. This circuit is robust to noise because of working in the current level. BLDCM is driven from the position information by the ZCP The reliability on BLDCM sensorless control using the voltage detecting circuit is shown through simulation using Matlab.

This paper describes design and characteristic analysis of long primary type linear synchronous motor (LSM) for high speed train system. LSM is designed using loading distribution method and magnetic equivalent circuit. For characteristic analysis of LSM, analytical and numerical methods are applied. Analytical method for solving the magnetic field distribution of the analytic model is based on the Maxwell’s equations. Using the characteristic equation and magnetic equivalent circuit, we analyze the effect of variation of parameters, and then we validate the result by comparing with numerical method by finite element method (FEM). We compare the analytical method with numerical method for analyzing the effect by variable parameters. This result will be useful of design and forecast of performance without FEM.

The indirect vector control method is generally used for variable speed control of induction motor, due to its excellent response characteristics. However, this is very sensitive to the variation of motor parameters caused by temperature rise and magnetic saturation and so on. Linear induction motor(LIM) has asymetric phase circuit parameters because of its special phenomena, end effects. So this paper describes on the method that identifies the circuit parameters using neural network in the vector control of LIM.

This paper presents a design and characteristics analysis of a SRM drive for EPS application. A rack mounted EFS system is considered in this paper. A conventional driving room space and mechanical structure are suggested in design stage. In the restricted design conditions, motor parameters are determined for sufficient torque and speed. For the smooth torque generation and simple circuit of power system, 12/8 motor drive is considered. With FEM and magnetic circuit analysis designed motor is simulated to meet the requirement of specifications. Effectiveness of the suggested SRM drive for EPS application is verified by the manufactured prototype motor drive tests.
