Input frequency is one of the important variables in design and performance analysis of single-sided linear induction motors (SLIMs). Changing the frequency changes both the dimension of the SLIM in design process and the performance of the designed motor. The frequency influences the induced eddy currents in the secondary sheet as well as saturation level of the secondary back-iron. In this pa...

Tubular linear induction motor (TLIM) can be used as a capsule pump in a large pneumatic capsule pipeline (PCP) system. Parametric performance evaluation of the designed 1-meter diameter PCP-TLIM system yields encouraging results for practical implementation. The capsule thrust and speed inside the TLIM pump can be calculated from the combination of the PCP fluid mechanics and the TLIM equation...

A novel, improved equivalent circuit model of double-sided linear induction motors (DLIMs) is proposed, which takes the skin effect and nonzero leakage reactance secondary, longitudinal, transverse end effects into consideration. Firstly, traditional with longitudinal are briefly reviewed. Additionally, correction coefficients for derived by one-dimensional analysis models given. Secondly, fact...

This paper deals with the design and evaluation of a robust controller for static VAR compensator (SVC) in remote industrial power systems to enhance the voltage profile for three-phase single cage induction motor (SCIM) loads. The controller design is based on H∞ theory to deal with uncertainties arising in industrial network modelling. &#10The performance of the H∞ controller has been evaluat...
