This paper proposes a speed sensorless vector control of induction motor using a minimum-order EKF(extended kalman filter). Minimum-order EKF has the advantage of reducing the computational estimation cost because the stator current is not estimated. EKF does not deteriorate the performance of the overall speed control system, even though the measurements are relatively noisy. The estimated rotor speed is used for vector control and overall speed control. Computer simulations of the speed sensorless vector control are carried out to test the usefulness of the minimum-order EKF algorithm.

Noise and vibration are one of the most unpleasant hazards of driving motors. Therefore, it is important to reduce noise and vibration. To do so, we need to analysis cause of those. This paper presents one of the process that search for the cause.

The cogging torque in the small BLDC motors used in the DVD driving system or HDD driving system can cause some serious vibration problem. In this paper, some core shapes that reduce cogging torque are found by using reluctance network method(RNM) for magnetic field analysis and genetic algorithm(GA) for optimization. The outer rotor type BLDC motor for the DVD ROM driving system has been optimized as an sample model.

A robust nonlinear control technique for brushless DC(BLDC) motors is presented using a feedback linearizing technique. The nonlinear model of the BLDC motor is first linearized far the exactly known system by an input-output linearizing method. Then, the robust control is designed for the unknown parts of the system using the Lypunov second method. By employing the proposed control scheme, the a robust control performance against the parameter uncertainties is obtained and therefore a robust feedback linerizing control of the BLDC motor is realized. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is well demonstrated through the comparative simulations.

Most of the elevator door controllers have been controlled by DC Motors as an actuator. Recently, The control system using AC induction motor and general purpose inverter has been applied to control of elevator door. But there are some difficulties in making use of this system, such as adjustment of door speed pattern, door open-close time, and security of passenger safety. In order to solve these problems, a special inverter has, been developed with an encoder feedback. From the result of field-test, we proved that a special inverter with encoder feedback device has come to considerable effect. Until now about 1,200 sets of these inverters are operated in Korea and about 100 sets are operated in South-east Asia.

Slot field harmonics exist in air gap due to inevitable slot constructure of induction motors. They give rise to noise by the electromagnetic vibration and mechanical pulsation. We calculate the slot field harmonics for varying the ratio of slot width vs teeth pitch using the carter's coefficent. We computate the flux density in air gap by FEM(Finite Element Method) and analyze it in frequency domain using DFT(Discrete Fourier Transform). We develop the new algorithm mixing FEM with DFT.

Tubular coils are widely used in various electromagnetic applications. For the purpose to obtain the mechanical output power, one of the two sets of coil arrays, called drive, is generally fixed while the other, called sleeve or projectile, is not fixed and easy to move. Among the three force components acting on the coil arrays, the radial one used to affect as a stress on the surfiace of the sleeve, or a restoring force if it is off-centered. The system under transient state or intended pulsed input power is likely to have the worst condition in mechanical stress, and it is necessary to design the mechanical strength of the sleeve within the permanent deformation limit. This paper is focused on the presentation of analytic expressions for the stress on surface of the sleeve.

AC servo motors are widely used for various mechatronic devices such as FA, OA and robot machines. To obtain more accurate simulation results, a method of analysis for AC servo motor is described using transient magnetic formulation coupled with external circuit equation of the motor. The external circuit of the motor to be analyzed is described using FLUX2D program and linked to multiple finite element regions. The simulation results show that transient magnetic analysis coupled with extenal circuit has more accurate than those results from magnetostatic.

An additional consideration for using general Induction Motor are about copper loss by harmonic component of source, and increase of iron loss due to switching frequency in semiconductor devices, so that these losses come to be significant elements on design for motors used for variable V/F. In this paper, therefore, the effects of the losses are discussed, in the case the source is generated by square wave and PWM Inverter.

Switched reluctance motors and drives are increasingly used in high speed applications due to their robust mechanical structures, low inertia, and reduction in the rotor losses. The turn-on angle has to be advanced as the motor speed increases, but it may cause the starting problem in some rotor positions. In this paper, the characteristics of the maximum speed and input voltage with the advance angle at high speeds is investigated. To overcome the starting problem and reduce the torque ripple, conduction overlapping is added in adjacent phases. The effectiveness of conduction overlapping is verified through the simulation and experiments.
