The performance analysis and robust control of the interior permanent magnet synchronous motor(IPMSM) greatly depend on accurate value of its parameters. To achieve the high performance of torque control, it is necessary to consider exact inductance values because the inductances are nonlinear parameters of operating the IPMSM. Therefore many different methods have been performed for analysis of the methodology for the exact measurement of synchronous inductances. None of them is considered standard, and accuracy levels of all these methods are also not consistent. Among these experimental methods, the DC current decay test and the vector current control test are ideal for a laboratory environment. In this paper, these two test methods are compared by applying inductances to the IPMSM. The paper analyzes the measured inductances of the two methods and their differences with inductances obtained from the finite element method(FEM).

This paper proposes an estimation algorithm for the separate primary and secondary leakage inductances of a three phase $Y-\Delta$ transformer using least squares method. The voltage equations from the primary and secondary windings are combined into a differential equation to estimate the separate primary and secondary leakage inductances in order to use the line current of the delta winding. Separate primary and secondary leakage inductances are obtained by applying least squares method to the differential equation. The performance of the proposed algorithm is validated under transient states, such as magnetic inrush and overexcitation, as well as in the steady state with various cut-off frequencies of low-pass filter. The proposed technique can accurately generate separate leakage inductances both in the steady and transient states.

Eccentricity faults more or less exist in all rotating electrical machines. This paper establishes a more precise model of dynamic eccentricity (DE) in electrical machines named as curved dynamic eccentricity. It is a kind of axial unequal eccentricity which has not been investigated in detail so far but occurs in large electrical machines. The inductances of a large three-phase squirrel-cage induction machine (SCIM) under different levels of curved DE conditions are evaluated using winding function approach (WFA). These inductances include the stator self and mutual inductances, rotor self and mutual inductances, and mutual inductances between stator phases and rotor loops. A comparison is made between the calculation results under curved DE and the corresponding pure DE conditions. It indicates that the eccentricity condition will be more terrible than the monitored eccentricity based on the conventional pure DE model.

This paper presents an adaptive flux observer to estimate stator flux linkage and stator inductances of an interior permanent-magnet synchronous machine considering magnetic saturation. The concept of static and dynamic inductances due to saturation is introduced in the machine model to describe the relationship between current and flux linkage and the relationship between their time derivatives. A flux observer designed in the stationary reference frame with constant inductance is analyzed in the rotor reference frame by a frequency-response characteristic. An adaptive algorithm for an on-line inductance estimation is proposed and a Lyapunov-based analysis is given to discuss its stability. The dynamic inductances are estimated by using Taylor approximation based on the static inductances estimated by the adaptive method. The simulation and experimental results show the feasibility and performance of the proposed technique.

The saturated winding inductances of a transformer are determined using the instantaneous magnetic saturation curve. The instantaneous curve is obtained from no load saturation curve in rms form by a direct piecewise linearized approach, then it is represented by a four-term ploynominal approximation. The saturated differential, effective and apparent winding inductances are computed from this curve, and these inductances are compared with the measured magnetizing inductance. The results show that the relation of $L_d<L_e<L_a$ exists and the computed apparent inductance is more close to the measured inductance.

In this paper we presented a calculation method of leakage inductance in electrical machines. For its accurate calculation the finite element method is applied to the analysis of magnetic field distribution. The self and mutual inductances are derived using the results of the magnetic field analysis and the leakage inductance is easily obtained from these inductances. As numerical examples, we tread a single phase transformer and a rotor slot model of induction motor. In the finite element analysis we used the 2D linear magnetostatic formulation with the first-order triangular element.

The superconducting transmission cable is one of interesting part in power application using high temperature superconducting wire. One important parameter in HTS cable design is transport current sharing because it is related with current transmission capacity and loss. In this paper, we calculate self inductances of each layer and mutual inductances between two layers from magnetic field energy, and current sharing of each layer for 4-layer cable using the electric circuit model which contain inductance and resistance (by joint and AC loss). Also, transport current losses which are calculated by monoblock model and Norris equation are compared. As a results, outer layer has always larger transport current than inner layer, and current capacity of each layer is largely influenced by resistance per unit cable length. As a conclusion, for high current uniformity and low AC loss, we have to decrease inductances themselves or those differences.

Inductance can be defined as several kinds of slops on the B-H curve, and at is classified into apparent, effective, incremental inductances, etc. In many research cases, its calculation and measurement are partially dealt. However it is hard to find the clear explanation of the inductance in the voltage equation of PM machines, and even its relationship with those classified inductances in the view point of design and characteristics analysis. Moreover some previous definition of inductance can not be used for the inductance of coils in PM machines. Therefore, in this paper the inductance is redefined for voltage equation of PM machines, and the methods of calculation by using finite element analysis method and measurement are explained.

The mutual inductances between power line and communication line above ground are studied in this paper. A long power line is discussed and the terminal effect above ground is taken into account. By applying Carson's method, the analytical solution to mutual inductances is derived and numerically evaluated. The analytical solutions derived in this paper are valid for both oblique and parallel proximity between power and communication lines, and the numerical results are compared with previous published results.
