Linear motors has been developed for factory automation, transportation applications, among other applications. As the trend toward compact sizes in micro electronic products progresses, the required motor drives in these applications need to be downsized with increased power densities. It appears that the winding of miniature linear motors is the most awkward part to be scaled down from conventional motor designs when miniaturizing. This paper presents an alternative design for slotless linear motors. A novel flexible printed circuit winding has been applied to obtain a simplified but qualified result. Having explained the prototyping and inspection, a discussion is given to examine the achievement of this study.

With the equivalent series circuit analyzed aby revolving field theory and drawn by using the equivalent circuit constant ratios in capacitor motor with windings not in quadrature having space harmonics in its magnetic field (the above ratios are the equivalent circuit constants for the fundamental flux to the magnetizing reactance of the circuit), the equation for the alternating torque with twice line freequency in the motor is directly derived, and the alternating torque is measured with the self-made stator vibration angle amplitude measuring apparatus that is composed of a pickup, filter, photoelectric pickoff etc. The measured values satisfactorily compared with computed values. The properties of the alternating torque characteristics for respective harmonic fluxes and the r5esultant alternating torque characteristic, the effects of the alternating torque characteristics for respective harmonic fluxes on the resultant alternating torque characteristic, the effects of the variation in the motor constants and the equivalent circuit constant ratios for the fundamental flux on the alternating torque characteristics for respective harmonic fluxes and the resultant alternating torque characteristic, are made clear, applying the equation. There exist the optimum values of the motor constants and the equivalent circuit constant ratios for the fundamental flux for decreasing the alternating torque, and the value could be determined in design by the method presented in this paper.

The position of stator is essential when a trapezoidal BLDC motor is drived. In this paper we proposed a novel sensorless drive system for the trapezoidal BLDC motor without hall sensors or encoders. The resistor Y-connecting method is used to obtain Back-emf of a trapezoidal BLDC motor. Especially, by using the new Back-emf filter circuit proposed in this paper the sensorless characteristic in low speed is improved. The prototype proposed system applied for a 100[W] rating BLDC motor is made and the propriety of the Back-EMF filter circuit is also verified.

It is well known that the maximum torque of a 3-phase induction motor does not vary as the resistance of rotor varies by proportional shifting. However, proportional shifting is derived using simplified equivalent circuit of induction motor. Therefore, there are some errors in the torque characteristics shown in the text book. This paper presents the torque characteristics using not simplified equivalent circuit but equivalent circuit. Errors produced by simplified equivalent circuit are presented.

This paper proposes a straightforward method of analyzing the operation characteristics for the capacitor run single-phase induction motor from the traditional equivalent circuit based on the revolving field theory. The proposed method consists of five procedures as follows: mechanical loss segregation, iron loss segregation and calculation of the equivalent circuit parameters, recalculation of parameters of the main winding side, calculation of the auxiliary winding magnetizing reactance and effective turn ratio, and analyzing the operation characteristics for this motor. When the characteristics are analyzed, the segregated mechanical and iron losses are considered as a loss resistance across input terminals of the equivalent circuit for the analysis. The validity of the proposed method is verified from the comparison between the computed results and the experimental ones for the operation characteristics.

In this paper, the magnetic circuit characteristics and the current/torque analysis of a Spoke Type permanent magnet motor have been researched, compared with the SPM Type motor. In the magnetic circuit analysis, the characteristic of air-gap flux density has been analyzed according to the variation of the number of pole and the ratio of magnet height to arc length using finite element method and circuit equations. Moreover, the electromagnetic and the reluctance torque have been analyzed by the current profile, which is obtained from the variation of turn-on angle, and these informative data has been utilized for the overall characteristics of the Spoke Type BLDC motor.

This paper presents the study on analysis of single phase induction motor characteristics by equivalent circuit. For high efficiency of single phase induction motor, the motor parameters used for equivalent circuit analysis is important. The accuracy of equivalent circuit analysis of motor depends on the circuit parameters like saturation factor. Therefore this paper proposed the analysis method considering saturation factor. The saturation factor was calculated by iteration routine and numerical method. this proposed method was verified by FEM analysis results and dynamo test results of the prototype model.

This paper presents an improved characteristic analysis methodology for a 5-phase hybrid stepping motor. The basic approach is based on the use of equivalent magnetic circuit taking into account the localized saturation throughout the hybrid stepping motor. The finite element method(FEM) is used to generate the magnetic circuit parameters for the complex stator and rotor teeth and airgap considering the saturation effects in tooth and poles. In addition, the neural network is used to map a change of parameters and predicts their approximation. Therefore, the proposed method efficiently improves the accuracy of analysis by using the parameter characterizing localized saturation effects and reduces the computational time by using the neural network. An improved circuit model of 5-phase hybrid stepping motor is presented and its application is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The shape optimization of the stator and the rotor is important for electrical motor design. Among many motor design parameters, the stator tooth and yoke width are a few of the determinants of noload back-EMF and load torque. In this study, we proposed an equivalent magnetic circuit of motor stator for efficient stator tooth and yoke width shape optimization. Using the proposed equivalent magnetic circuit, we found the optimal tooth and yoke width for minimal magnetic resistance. To verify if load torque is truly maximized for the optimal tooth and yoke width indicated by the proposed method, we performed finite element analysis (FEA) to calculate load torque for different tooth and yoke widths. From the study, we confirmed reliability and usability of the proposed equivalent magnetic circuit.

This paper deals with the method of characteristic analysis of the capacitor-run single- phase induction motor having two poles (4-pole and 2-pole). This motor, which is referred to as a pole change motor in this paper, is capable of variable speed operation without inverters or drives. However, speed-torque curve can be distorted by the harmonic components contained in the magnetic flux density distribution. Therefore, the characteristics of this motor are analyzed using equivalent circuit considering harmonic components and the simulation results are compared with the experimental results.
