Motor concepts used in electromobility mostly consist of three-phase electrical machines like induction machines (IM) or permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM). Both machine designs rely on a rotating three-phase magnetic field in the air gap of the motor which is the result of the superimposed alternating fields of three phase currents. A knowledge of the underlying principles of electromagnetic field theory is a must for designers of all kinds of motors, especially for the highly utilized motors used in automobile applications. Students frequently express difficulties in understanding the basic theory of electromagnetic fields in rotating electrical machines. To further their understanding of the theory involved, an experimental motor has been developed. Using this motor, students have to design and implement different winding schemes. The motor design is kept simple, using basic technology such as a laminated stator core, simple coils and a rudimentary squirrel cage rotor. The experiment helps students to comprehend electromagnetic field theory with special consideration of electrical machines and is highly praised by students for its practical orientation.","PeriodicalId":6309,"journal":{"name":"2012 XXth International Conference on Electrical Machines","volume":"14 1","pages":"3056-3061"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79362453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since utilization of the LCL filter in output of the converter can lead to stability problem due to resonance at high frequency, determination of the controller parameters should be carefully designed. In this study, a simple dynamic model of the LCL filter is developed in order to analyze the performance of the control system easily. By using the bode diagram and step response of the system, the combination of gain controller and damping resistance parameters can be selected. The proposed method has been implemented on the grid side controller design for 2.5 MW PMSG based variable speed wind generator. The simulation results show that the proposed method is very useful and good response performance of the control system can be achieved.","PeriodicalId":6309,"journal":{"name":"2012 XXth International Conference on Electrical Machines","volume":"3 1","pages":"2112-2118"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85645873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The SSOR defines a working point under the maximum torque per ampere (MTPA) trajectory in which the motor can perform sensorless operation with a guaranteed performance in the steady state. The reliability of the SSOR was verified by experiments using two prototypes. The influence of the IPM motor geometry on the SSOR was then examined. Consequently, the design guidelines were established to obtain a suitable motor geometry that can maximize the torque capability and the stability during the sensorless drive. Under the restricted specifications of dimensions and requirements, the 100 Nm-10 kW 12-pole, 18-slot IPMSM is optimally designed for the target traction drive in HEVs.

A supercapacitor offers an additional flexibility to prevent starvation phenomena, improve performance and increase lifetime.

The numbers of stator and rotor poles of the PMRG are 72 and 96 respectively, in order to be directly connected to the turbine without a gear box. The rated power of the designed PMRG is about 1.0 kW at 100 rpm. The PMRG has two features for reducing torque ripple; the first one is a two-stacked structure, namely, one rotor is shifted by 180 deg. in electrical angle from the other rotor; the second one is that the rotor pole-tips are cut off so that the torque waveform consists of only odd-harmonics. In such a structure, the torque ripple of the PMRG can be reduced drastically. In this paper, first, the shape of rotor pole-tips is optimized by two-dimensional finite element method (2D-FEM) coupled with a general purpose optimization program. Next, the load characteristics of the PMRG obtained from 3D-FEM are indicated. Finally, the measured characteristics of the developed 72/96-pole PMRG are described.","PeriodicalId":6309,"journal":{"name":"2012 XXth International Conference on Electrical Machines","volume":"72 1","pages":"489-494"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84152940","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During the last few decades intermittent operation has increased, and power plants designed for base electrical energy production became the ones that cover peak power needs. This lead to greater strains on the stator package. Power generators are often very robust and can endure these new operating conditions but sometimes with reduced lifetime of stator package. Often, the main problem is a generator's cooling system. Older synchronous generators often have cooling system control with very rough steps.

However, in order to obtain data that correspond to real working conditions of a machine, simulations of different operation points have to be done. The procedure described here provides algorithm for determination of synchronous generator load condition parameters.
