This paper presents a method of reducing cogging torque and improving average torque by changing the dead zone angle of trapezoidal magnetization distribution of rotor magnet in ring type. Because brushless d.c. motor has 3D shape of overhang, 3D analysis should be used for computation of its magnet field. In this paper, Three Dimensional Equivalent Magnetic Circuit Network method (3DEMCN) which can calculate an accurate 3D magnetic field has been introduced. The method has an advantage that nonlinear magnetic phenomena can be considered and the cogging torque analyses requesting the rotation of the rotor can be performed by the variation of magnetization distribution without remesh.

This paper has proposed an optimized universal motor for improving its performance and cost using FEM program. To do this, various design parameters are set such as air gap length, shape of stator and pole shoe, rotor slot, rotor shaft diameter, etc. As results, the optimized model has made good improvement compared with those of the initial.

The torque characteristic of an induction motor is affected greatly by the slot shape at which the conductors of the rotor are located. In this paper, the three analysis model; general type, deep slot type, double squirrel-cage type, of which the slot shapes are different, were analyzed by FEM at no load, at rated load, and at standstill respectively. The flux distribution and air-gap flux density were also obtained. From the above result, it was confirmed that the analysis models of deep slot and double squirrel-cage had more desirable characteristics than those of general squirrel-cage.

In the design of modem rotating machinery, it is often necessary to increase the performance of rotor-bearing system. Since a critical speed range influences the performance and safety of the whole system, it should be necessary to constrain the critical speed and thus resonance response in design process to result in large vibration. Consequently the minimization of resonance response amplitudes within the operation range of the rotor system becomes the most primary design objective. In this paper, based on the assumption that the external shape of rotating-shaft, bearing supporting positions and etc, the natural frequency analysis of spindle is performed by ANSYS $10.0^{(R)}$ Optimum design is conducted using the RBF model.

This paper deals with an automatic optimum design based on a rated output for a synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM). The focus of this paper is the motor design relative to the output power on the basis of rotor shape of a SynRM in each rated watt. And optimization algorithm is used by means of sequential unconstrained minimization technique(SUMT). The coupled Finite Elements Analysis (FEA) & Preisach model have been used to evaluate nonlinear solutions. The proposed procedure allows to define the rotor geometric dimensions according to rated watt starting from an existing motor or a preliminary design.

This paper deals with the improvement of starting characteristic of line-start synchronous relucatance motor(SynRM). To decide the number of conductor bars, the locking torque, when slip is 1, is computed by finite element method(FEM). And then, the magnetic circuit is designed to improve the starting torque according to the rotor position from the shape design of the conductor bars of the rotor with the flux barriers.

A simple analysis method for inverter-fed induction motor using F.E.M and equivalent circuit is proposed. And an optimum shape of rotor slot for 2Hp inverter-fed induction motor is determined by combining the proposed analysis method and an optimization algorithm. Conjugate gradient method is used for the optimization algorithm. The optimization is performed for higher efficiency and reduction of harmonic loss in the inverter-fed induction motor. The optimization results are verified by comparing with those of the time-step F.E.A and the experiment.

Generally, the usage motor in the vehicle is exposed to highly ambient temperature and large vibration according to repeatedly starting and stopping during very short time. So, in this paper, the rotor shape design was performed to improve demagnetization endurance by considering starting current of Brushless DC Motor (BLDCM) through Finite Element Method(FEM). As a result, the end of Permanent Magnet (PM) in the basic model was occurring a partial irreversible demagnetization by starting current. To solve this problem, the installing flux barrier was limited to flux line on the core. Accordingly, demagnetization endurance and operating characteristics were improved.

This paper deals with the conductor bar design to improve starting stability of line-start synchronous reluctance motor(LSRM). As design variables, the number and the shape of conductor bars of rotor are chosen. The starting characteristics are calculated by finite element method(FEM) and the conductor bars are designed to improve the starting torque according to initial starting rotor position. Finally, the starting characteristic of the designed model are compared with that of the initial model.
