This paper presents parameter measurement for permanent magnet synchronous motors based on the P-Q circle diagram. Three electrical parameters of permanent magnet synchronous motors, i.e., the equivalent iron loss resistance, armature inductance, and electrical motive force (emf) coefficient are simultaneously measured. The advantages of this method are that it can be implemented under constant excitation and it dispenses with the generating test for the emf coefficient. The proposed method is applied to a 160w permanent magnet synchronous motor, and then the measurement results are analyzed.

This paper presents dynamic performance prediction using Matlab / simulink after parameter estimation of synchronous reluctance motor considering iron loss. Test motor is 3 phase SynRM with the segmental rotor, rating power is 0.175KW. Experiment equipment is consists of testing motor, dynamometer, vector invertor dynamocontroller, and power analyser. The stator iron loss and rotor iron loss are modelled by additional windings on three-phase winding axis. These windings are transformed into d-q axis, and are represented as equivalent eddy current windings. P-Q circle diagram method and single phase standstill method are used to measure motor parameters considering iron loss.

This paper proposes a new three-phase diode rectifier system with a sinusoidal input current at unity power factor and a regulated and isolated output voltage at low level. The inherent natural wave-shaping capability of the reduced kVA polyphase transformer together with an active current wave-shaping technique results in a significant reduction of input and output filter requirements associated with switching ripple and EMI. The operation principles are described along with a design example and a comparative evaluation. Experimental results on a 1.5kW prototype are provided to validate the proposed concept.
