Squirrel cage induction motors have mostly been used for their small capacity because the starting torque is smaller than the starting current during start-up. However, as more and more mid-to-large capacity motors are developed, the demands for improvements in performance characteristics have also increased. In this study, the starting characteristics of squirrel cage induction motors were analyzed based on the rotor materials and shapes using a finite element method to provide design data suitable for different use purposes and capacities. We further completed analysis by combining electromagnetic equations deduced from Maxwell’s equations and the circuit equations of stators and rotors. A moving coordinator was introduced to rotate the rotor during the analysis, and the torques calculated via the finite element method were combined with the motion equations to calculate the position and angular velocity of the rotors at the next time, thereby analyzing the transient characteristics. The analysis results of the transient characteristics were applied to a 3-phase 4-pole 5-hp induction motor to calculate the starting torque, speed, and rotation angle of the rotors. In the reference model, the materials and shapes of the rotor slot were changed to copper and silicon copper and a deep slot, shallow slot, and long-neck-shaped slot.

The finite element method is very flexible for new shapes and provides flux distribution, magnetomotive force, eddy currents, and torques. However, it requires lengthy computational time in order to achieve desired accuracy. The magnetic equivalent circuit method takes less computation time than the finite element method. Therefore, the finite element method is mainly used to confirm the completed design. The magnetic equivalent circuit method is convenient for complicated analysis of the transient state of the induction motor. The magnetic equivalent circuit method is restricted to only one direction of magnetic flux. In this paper, the construction elements (that is, stator iron, rotor iron, yoke, air gap, etc.) of the squirrel cage induction motor were represented by a flux tube and the air gap magnetomotive force was calculated by the magnetic equivalent circuit method. Starting transient torque and phase current of the squirrel cage induction motor were verified by the theoretical calculation and the experiment.

On the prediction of driving performance, an acceleration performance is normally simulated in stall starting condition which is the engine status of full-throttle and high-speed. The lack of transient engine torque data makes the difficulty of predicting an acceleration performance on engine-idle start condition. A experimental equation of transient engine torque is derived from vehicle performance test data. It is applied to simulation the accleration performance prediction on idle starting condition.

Generally, closed slots are adopted to reduce the water friction loss in both the stator and the rotor of water filling submersible motor due to the special environment of operation. One of the obvious differences between the traditional induction motors and water filling submersible motors is that the submersible motors only need relatively smaller starting torque. This paper aims to analyze the slot leakage reactance of water filling submersible motor during starting transient operation. An improved analytical method which considered the magnetic saturation of the slot bridge and the skin effect of rotor bars is proposed. The slot permeance factor which has a direct impact on the slot leakage reactance is calculated. Then finite element models with different stator slot types are constructed and search coils are introduced to measure the slot flux linkage. Moreover, the starting performances of the models with two typical stator slots are compared and the flux leakage characteristics are obtained. Finally, the results obtained by finite element method are very close to the results obtained by analytical method.

This paper presents a nonconventional method for oft starting of three-phase induction motors, which achieved by flux weakening technique. flux weakening is not done by reducing the applied voltage as in the conventional methods, Flus weakening is achieved y increasing the supply frequency over the rated value while the voltage amplitude is kept constant. This method has advantage of reducing the stress on the electrical and mechanical systems. The feasibility of this basic idea has been confirmed through investigating the starting transient corresponding to this mode of operation. For this purpose, a rigorous state space mathematical model has been developed and simulated. The validity of the proposed method through the results from the mathematical model have been confirmed experimentally.

MATLAB/$SIMULINK^{TM}$ 환경 기반에서 일반적인 터보 축 엔진의 천이상태 및 시동 특성 해석을 위한 동적 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 터보축 엔진 구성품을 열역학 및 로터 동역학적인 관계식을 이용하여 모델을 구성하였다. 엔진 시동 특성은 보조동력장치에서 발생한 축력을 엔진 터빈에 전달시켜 엔진 각 구성품에서의 압력, 온도 및 축력의 변화 등에 대한 해석을 수행하였으며, 정상상태에서 작동 중인 모델엔진의 연료유량 변화에 대한 엔진 작동상황을 모사해 봄으로써 엔진 천이 특성에 대한 해석을 수행하였다. 향후, 엔진 제어기능을 기본 모델에 추가함으로써 보다 다양한 엔진 성능 시뮬레이션이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

During the rapid startup transient of a centrifugal pump, in order to investigate its transient characteristics, the torque equations are deduced. Based on these equations, numerical simulation is carried out with the Large Eddy Simulation(LES) method and UDFs(User Defined Functions) are applied during the simulation. Comparison between simulation and experiment results of pump heads and rotational speed shows that they are in good agreement, indicating that the dynamic characteristics of this pump can be predicted accurate comparatively through simulation with LES method during its startup process.

The single-phase line-start permanent magnet motor has been shown to be capable of very desirable steady state performance, but known to have undesirable starting performance. This is because magnetic braking torque. So, it is very important to predict starting performance accurately when designing the line-start motors. In this paper, starting performance was calculated by combination of d-q axis voltage equations and mechanical dynamic equations. D-q axis voltage components were derived by winding angle and turns ratio transformations.

A dynamic model of a power shuttle transmission was developed and its validity was verified using the experimental data obtained from a transmission test bench. A 40㎾, 4WD tractor was also modeled using an application software EASY5 to investigate parameters and their effects on the power shifting performance. For a tractor model, the manual reverse gear was replaced by a power shuttle transmission. The tractor model also included an engine, main-gears for transmission, wheels, differentials and planet gears. Using the tractor model, the effects of the parameters such as modulating pressure and time, engine speed, tractor speed. tractor weight. reverse to forward speed ratio and torsional damper on the transient characteristics at starting and shuttle shifting were investigated by the computer simulation. The transient characteristics were represented by variations in clutch pressure, torque transmitted to input shaft and driving wheels, and power transmission capacity of the clutch. It was found that the modulating pressure and time affected most significantly the torque transmission and shifting time. The input torque, axle torque, power transmission capacity of the clutch and transmission time all increased with increase in engine speed, tractor speed. tractor weight and ratio of reverse to forward speeds. However, the axle torque decreased with tractor speed. Both the axle torque and power transmission capacity of the clutch also decreased with the ratio of reverse to forward speeds.
