However, because of the saliency characteristic of SynRM, LS-SynRM have a limited power factor. Therefore, to improve the efficiency and power factor of electric motors, we propose a line-start permanent magnet assistance synchronous reluctance motor (LS-PMA-SynRM) with permanent magnets inserted into LS-SynRM. IM and LS-SynRM are selected as reference models, whose performances are analyzed and compared with that of LS-PMA-SynRM using a finite element analysis. The performance of LS-PMA-SynRM is analyzed considering the position and length of its permanent magnet, as well as its manufacture. The final model of LS-PMA-SynRM is designed for improving the efficiency and power factor of electric motors compared with LS-SynRM. To verify the finite element analysis (FEA) result, the final model is manufactured, experiments are conducted, and the performance of LS-PMA-SynRM is verified. -

Engineer the Exceptional ENGINEER THE EXCEPTIONAL Each technology has its niche, and since the selection of either stepper or servo ENGINEER THE EXCEPTIONAL technology affects the likelihood of success, it is important that the machine designer consider the technical advantages and disadvantages of both to select the best motor-drive system for an application. Machine designers should not limit utilization of steppers or servos This article presents an overview of stepper according to a fixed mindset or comfort level, but should learn where and servo capabilities to serve as selection each technology works best for controlling a specific mechanism and criteria between the two technologies. process to be performed. A thorough understanding of these technologies will help you achieve optimum Today’s digital stepper motor drives provide enhanced drive features, mechatronic designs to bring out the full option flexibility and communication protocols using advanced capabilities of your machine. integrated circuits and simplified programming techniques. The same is true of servo motor systems, while higher torque density, improved electronics, advanced algorithms and higher feedback resolution have resulted in higher system bandwidth capabilities as well as lower initial and overall operating costs for many applications. STEPPER MOTOR SYSTEM OVERVIEW Stepper motors have several major advantages over servo systems. They typically cost less, have common NEMA mountings, offer lower-torque options, require less-costly cabling, and their open-loop motion control simplifies machine integration and operation. -
Overlapped Electromagnetic Coilgun for Low Speed Projectiles
ISSN (Print) 1226-1750 ISSN (Online) 2233-6656 Journal of Magnetics 20(3), 322-329 (2015) http://dx.doi.org/10.4283/JMAG.2015.20.3.322 Overlapped Electromagnetic Coilgun for Low Speed Projectiles Hany M. Mohamed1, Mahmoud A. Abdalla2*, Abdelazez Mitkees, and Waheed Sabery Electrical Engineering Branch, MTC College, Cairo, Egypt [email protected] [email protected] (Received 20 February 2015, Received in final form 16 June 2015, Accepted 16 June 2015) This paper presents a new overlapped coilgun configuration to launch medium weight projectiles. The proposed configuration consists of a two-stage coilgun with overlapped coil covers with spacing between them. The theoretical operation of a multi-stage coilgun is introduced, and a transient simulation was conducted for projectile motion through the launcher by using a commercial transient finite element software, ANSOFT MAXWELL. The excitation circuit design for each coilgun is reported, and the results indicate that the overlapped configuration increased the exit velocity relative to a non-overlapped configuration. Different configurations in terms of the optimum length and switching time were attempted for the proposed structure, and all of these cases exhibited an increase in the exit velocity. The exit velocity tends to increase by 27.2% relative to that of a non-overlapped coilgun of the same length. Keywords : electromagnetic launch, excitation circuit, lorentz force, overlapped coilgun 1. Introduction is not easy to obtain the main performance parameters and optimize the design [3]. Electromagnetic (EM) launch technology is a strong Sandia National Laboratories has succeeded in coilgun candidate to launch objects with high velocities over long design and operations by developing four guns with distances. -

Stepper Motor
STEPPER MOTOR Stepper motors are used in a wide variety of applications, including computer peripherals like printers, scanners, CD drives, camera lenses, etc. In this first article, in a series of articles on stepper motors, we will introduce the reader to the theory behind the working and control of a stepper motor. Stepper Motor Basics A Stepper Motor just like any other motor, converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. A stepper motor consists of the following parts: Stator The stationary part of the motor. In a stepper motor, the stator is a set of electromagnets. Rotor The non-stationary part of the motor. In a stepper motor, the rotor is a permanent magnet. The arrangement of the electromagnets and the permanent magnets in a simple stepper motor is shown in the following diagram. Stepper Motor Construction Stepper Motor Operation Stepper Motor Operation When each of the electromagnet pairs is energized successively, the permanent magnet is attracted to the electromagnet, and aligns with it. This results in rotation of the permanent magnet. This is illustrated in “Stepper Motor Operation” diagram. The stepper motor gets its name from the fact that the rotor rotates in discrete step increments. The simple stepper motor has a step angle of 90 degrees. More complex stepper motors can have step angles as low as 3.6 degrees. These stepper motors have more no. of poles in the rotor. A complex stepper motor is shown in below diagram. The dark grey areas on the rotor are South poles and light grey areas on the rotor are North poles. -

This is to a great extent caused by the lack of a mutual inductance between adjacent phases.
