Vector control is becoming the industrial standard for induction motor control. The vector control technique decouples the two components of stator current space vector: one providing the control of flux and the other providing the control of torque. The two components are defined in the synchronously rotating reference frame. With the help of this control technique the induction motor can repl...

Flux switching motor is a type of electric machine that locates both flux source and armature windings on the stator leaving its rotor a simple piece of iron. This machine was developed by combining the toothed stator structure of induction machine and the toothed rotor structure of switched reluctance machine together. Furthermore, it has three types of flux sources which include permanent mag...

Motor electrical current signature analysis (MCSA) is sensing an electrical signal containing current components that are direct by-product of unique rotating flux components. Anomalies in operation of the motor modify harmonic content of motor supply current. This paper presents brief introductory review of the method including fundamentals, fault detection techniques and current signatures of...

This study deals with the core design of a PM vernier machine considering modulation flux effects, and the comparative investigation on volume and performance characteristics of the vernier over conventional PM machines are addressed. To these ends, for a PM vernier machine in operation at the base-speed, the flux density equations for teeth and yokes considering the flux modulation effects are...

Axial Flux Ironless permanent magnetic synchronous motor (AFIPMSM) is a new permanent magnetic motor. It has many advantages, such as high torque-to-weight ratio, good efficiency, no cogging torque, and the sinusoidal back EMF. It gradually becomes the good choice in drive system. However, the small armature winding inductance causes the current is not continued with the PWM control based on VS...

In this Paper, an Intelligent Direct Torque Control (DTC) method is proposed for controlling induction motor using Multilevel inverter with space Vector Modulation (SVM).A stage of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is utilised for predicting the target parameters with the corresponding input parameters change in motor torque and flux. The change in motor torque and flux parameters are extracted f...

Model reference adaptive system (MRAS) based techniques are one of the best methods to estimate the rotor speed. Speed and torque control of an induction motor is usually attained by application of a speed or position sensor. However, these require the additional mounting space, reduce the reliability and increase the cost of the motor. The recent trend in field oriented control (FOC) is toward...
