Abstract

This study investigates the effect of static and dynamic eccentricities on the performances of flux reversal permanent magnet (FRPM) machine with even rotor pole number, i.e. FRPM machine with 12/10 stator/rotor combination. No-load and load performances of the machine are investigated under three rotor operating conditions including centricity, static eccentricity and dynamic eccentricity. The investigation has been carried out using 2D-FEA. It has been revealed that the 12/10 FRPM machine under normal operating condition has no unbalanced magnetic force, due to the even pole number of the rotor. On the other hand, such undesirable feature would be presented in the 12/10 FRPM machine as a result of the existing of static and dynamic eccentricities.  Both static and dynamic eccentric machines exhibit unbalanced three-phase flux linkage as well as back-EMF.  Moreover, three operating conditions of the investigated machine have the same fundamental cogging torque harmonic. However, low order harmonics are existed in the static and dynamic centric machines and are not found in the centric machine. Furthermore, about 16% less torque ripple delivered by the centric machine compared with both static and dynamic counterparts.

Abstract

Permanent-magnet excitation machines (SPMMs) having mounted magnet on the outer surface of their rotor are preferred for high speed applications such as turbochargers, mechanical turbo-compounding systems, racing engines and fuel pumps, over other types of machines including induction and switched-reluctance machines, since the SPMMs integrate the features of high torque density, compact rotor structure, high reliability and simple structure. However, in the SPMMs, due to the need for a retaining sleeve for the rotor, a large magnetic airgap results and consequently a large magnet thickness is required, hence the magnetic end-effect is relatively high. On the other hand, the use of an overlapping distributed winding leads to a significantly large end-winding length. Hence, the end-effect and the end-winding influences on the performances of a high-speed SPMM is considered in this paper. With a view to get the impact of the end-effect, a comparison between three-dimensional (3D-FEA) results and counterparts two-dimensional finite element analyses (2D-FEA) have been conducted. Results show that, higher efficiency at low torque and low speed due to the low electromagnetic losses and at high speeds due to the high flux-weakening capability are seen when the influences of end-effect as well as end-winding are taken into account.

Abstract

Induction motor has been widely applied in many sectors, as it has the advantages of simplicity, toughness and can withstand hard environment conditions. The working of such motor in constant voltage/frequency (V/F) speed control method has been popular since the introduction of the power electronic devices, which consequently make the implementation of this method simpler and effectives. The V/F speed control is dominated choice for many applications, especially open loop control and also for closed loop control when the accuracy is not a crucial issue. This study deals with two cases of controlling open and close of the electronic switches. The first with equal intervals by placing regular pulses at the opening and closing periods, and the second using three-phase pulse width generator, through which the control of different periods is carried out according to the required control. Four models have been simulated in this study including, three-phase induction motor at constant torque (constant load) as well as at variable torque (variable load), modeling of PWM-VSI for three-phase induction motor at constant torque (constant load) as well as at variable torque (variable load). The results have shown that speed profile of the IM can be improved by controlling the invertor using PWM technique.
