Nowadays the use of the Switched Reluctance Motors (SRMs) has been considerably increased in various home and industrial applications. Despite of many advantages of this type of motors, such as simple structure, low cost, and high reliability, the main disadvantage of them is the generation of high torque pulsation. This paper presents a novel method to optimize a typical SRM such that the torq...

Quadrature-axis reactance for various reasons comes into account as one of the most important parameters of salient pole synchronous machine. There are several common standard methods for measuring this parameter that also have been explained with some details in the standards, scientific papers and text books. One of these methods is the maximum lagging current test that is done simply at no-l...

the present study investigates the crystal preferred orientation (cpo) of quartz crystals in psammitic rocks to ascertain the deformationmechanism using electron backscatter diffraction (ebsd) on quartz crystals from north of the renvyle-bofin slide (rbs) nearletterfrack in western ireland. complete crystallographic orientations were determined for several thousand individual quartz crystalsin ...

This paper presents a new procedure for the speed changing of the twospeed compressor driven by the singlephase Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) motor. The use of the two-speed motor for compressor is one of the effective ways for their capacity control. But the two speed compressors now in use are driven by three-phase motors. It is because a single-phase, two-speed motor has rather a small sta...
