In this paper, the modeling and control of reluctance-force-based magnetic suspension in cylindrical rotor, ring-shape air gap, bearingless motors are presented. The full suspension system dynamics, including both the destabilizing force due to the motor field and the active magnetic suspension control forces, are modeled, and a transfer function of the bearingless motor suspension plant is der...

Self reactanceXd in direct axis ’d’ and self reactanceXq in quadrature axis ’q’ influence the load characteristics of the permanent magnet machine. Their calculation methods are known. All calculations should be verified by measurements. Measurement with AC variable voltage and frequency source applied on stator winding is correct when eddy currents do not exist. Other methods evaluate the DC c...

The electromagnetic torque and speed in Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) greatly depend on the excitation parameters i.e. turn-on angle, turn-off angle, dwell angle and magnitude of the phase currents of its phases. At lower speeds, a change in the current contributes the torque requirement which can be achieved either by voltage control (pulse width modulation) or instantaneous current control ...

This paper discusses on-line estimation of rotor body parameters of the synchronous hydro-generator under saturated condition. A new model of the saturated synchronous salient-pole machine, based on the saturated synchronous inductances which are estimated from measured steady-state operating data, is presented. Using this model the excitation disturbance responses of the saturated synchronous ...

Hydro-generators in pumped storage power stations (PSPSs) consist of multiple rotor windings connected by lead wires, which are consistently subjected to large stress due the frequent starting and stopping, making fatigue fractures these wires common. This paper proposes a fault early warning system featuring dual-connection wire real-time fracture monitoring ensure high reliability wire. A tes...

In the purpose of environmental conservation and energy saving, demands for high torque density drive motors at low speed are increasing, vernier utilizing magnetic gear effect attracting many attentions. this paper, optimal winding methods a stator module type motor is clarified by using finite element analysis several models with different schemes in same structure. The results show that when...

Overvoltage distribution along the transformer winding must be uniform to certify the safety of the operation of the power transformer. Influence of the parameters variation on the impulse voltage distribution (IVD) in disk winding transformer is going to be analyzed which hasn’t been analyzed on this type of winding in the previous papers. In this research, a transformer with disk winding and ...

In order to improvement of the performances for wind energy conversions systems (WECS), an advanced control techniques must be used. In this paper, as an alternative to conventional PI-type control methods, a nonlinear predictive control (NPC) approach is developed for DFIG-based wind turbine. To enhance the robustness of the controller, a disturbance observer is designed to estimate the aerody...
