A comparison with opposite sinusoïdal (Fig. 1). Figure 2 shows 1s made between the computation results and the the final arrangement of the stator of a triphased, two poles model results. Satisfactory agreement between machine. theory and simulation is obtained in most respects. l.lNTRODUCTION -0,SV-sin(rot) Researchon a new typeof actuators have beenundertaken for a few years: the electrostatic microactuators. In these actuators the electromechanical conversion is based on the Fig 1. Creating an altemating electnc rieid electricfield rather than the magneticfield. Likethe classical magnetic machines, electrostatic machines can work on 0,5.V s.sin( wt-2013) -0,5.V s.sin( rot+211/3) differenl principles: electrostatic synchronous motor (E.S.M.), electroquasistatic induction motor (E.l.M.), variable motor (V.C.M.). For instance the )ç� V.C.M. have beenwidely studiedby many researchers: in the vu;,.,,, U.S.A., Japan and Europe. Sorne prototypes have been designed and fabricated using integrated-circuit �., foi-i � processing.[l][2][3] This paper is concerned with the E.I.M. Sorne authors have already studied this type of machine and developed �� theoretical models based on the theory of electromagnetic 0,5.Vs.sin(ox+2ill3) -0,5.Vs.sin(rot-2[1/3) waves.

It is therefore difficult to optimise its currentsin the rotor windings. According to Lenz'slaw these performances.[4](5] currents produce magnetic effects which counterbalance the The paper shows how to synthesize an another type of evolution of flux in the rotor coi!.

This last mode( is used to simulate dynamic working of E.I.M. where e is the e.m.f. and to validate the oblainedPark's model. An equivalent induction phenomena can be achieved by means of electric induction. In an E.I.M. the revolving IL SYNTI-IESIS OF THE MACHINE electric field induces voltages and charges on the rotor electrodes.By considerations of duality from thewound rotor In theory the E.I.M. is a close analog of ils familiar M.l.M., the phases of the rotor of an E.I.M. can consist of electromagneticcounterparts. Voltages and electricfiel d play isolated pairs of electrodeslinked with a resistor(Fig. 3). the parts of currents and magnetic field. The qE term in Lorentz takes place of the jxB Laplace force. The conception of our model is based on this basic idea and considerations of duality with the familiar M.I.M. and on where Qsi, Qri, Vsi, Vri are thecharge and the voltages of the phase on the stator (s) and on the rotor (r); Cs andCr are the coefficients capacitance of a phaseon the stator andon the rotor; Ms is the coefficient of induction between two phases on the stator; Mr is the coefficient o� induction betweentwo phaseson the rotor; a, band c areg1ven by:

a= -Msr.cos(0) b= -Msr.cos(0+4IT/3) (4) c= -Msr.cos(0+2I1/3)

This reference frame is the analog of the d-q axis and the transformation is the classical Park's transformation. Equation (3) becomes: -Qr r Qs = Css.Vs - msr. Vr �t {Qr = Crr.Vr- msr.

CONCLUSION At first some considerations of duality allows us to synthesizean electrostaticinduction motor andwe have also developed anelectromechanical mode!of thisactuators which is more simple than those developed in the previous works on this type of machine. Then we have elaborated a general procedurefor thesimulation of the dynamicworking of these actuators. The results obtained allows us to validate our mode! which can beuseful forthe design of these machines and theîr supply. Results obtained must be confirmed experimentally.
