Accurate computing of the saturated inductances of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (PMSM) is very important during the design process. In this paper, a new method is presented based on the B-H characteristic of the stator material and unsaturated inductances formulations. This method is used to calculate the saturated inductances of the axial flux PMSM. The synchronous inductance and all o...

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 ...

This paper presents a method to realize floating inductance simulator using Operational Transconductance Amplifiers (OTAs). Both positive and negative floating inductances can be achieved without changing the circuit topology. The realization method is based on the use of commercially available OTAs and a grounded capacitor. The proposed circuit is attractive in terms of simple configuration an...

Bond graph models of an electrical transformer including the nonlinear saturation are presented. These models determine the relation between self and mutual inductances, and the leakage and magnetizing inductances of power transformers with two and three windings using the properties of a bond graph. The modelling and analysis using this methodology to three phase power transformers or transfor...

The Cochrun–Grabel (C–G) method, an algorithm for finding the characteristic polynomial of a circuit containing reactances, has so far been restricted to circuits not employing mutual inductances. In this paper we present an intuitive, yet rigorous, proof of the Cochrun-Grabel method for a general RLC circuit, and we extend the method to allow the analysis of an RLC circuit containing mutual in...

This paper presents a new adaptive torque estimation algorithm for an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) with parameter variations and cross-coupling between dand q-axis dynamics. All cross-coupled, time-varying, or uncertain terms that are not part of the nominal flux equations are included in two equivalent mutual inductances, which are described using the equivalent dand q-a...

Extensive experimental results for various square spiral inductors on GaAs substrate are presented in this paper. Through detailed studies of the inductances extracted from the de-embedded onchip measured S-parameters, the relationships between the electrical characteristics and the geometrical parameters of the spiral inductors are revealed. Based on the curve fitting technique, a behavioral m...

The energy absorbed and released by transformer leakage inductances during each switching period usually ends up as loss, thus impairing switching power supply efficiency. Even when much of this energy is recycled and recovered through the use of resonant or active clamping techniques, leakage inductance remains as the main factor in cross-regulation errors among multiple outputs, a problem tha...
