Cause of excessive vibration with twice the rotational speed of a two-pole generator rotor for the fossil power plants was investigated. The two-pole generator rotor, treated as a typically asymmetric rotor in vibration analysis, produces asynchronous vibration with twice the rotational speed, sub-harmonic critical speeds, and potentially unstable operating zones due to its own inertia and/or stiffness asymmetry. This paper introduces a practical balancing procedure, and presents the results of the investigation on sources of the excessive vibration based on the experimental vibration data of the asymmetric two-pole rotor in balancing.

Cause of excessive vibration signals with twice the rotational speed of a 2-pole generator rotor in balancing for fossil power plants was investigated. The 2-pole generator rotor is treated as a typically asymmetric rotor in vibration analysis, and produces asynchronous vibration with twice the rotational speed for its own inertia and stiffness asymmetry. This paper introduces practical balancing procedure and experimental vibration data of the asymmetric 2-pole rotor in balancing, and presents the results of investigation into sources of the excessive vibration signals.

An optimal design procedure is proposed to effectively reduce the torque ripple by optimizing the rotor pole shape of the spoke type IPMSM with concentrated winding. The procedure is composed of two steps. In step I, the steepest descent method (SDM) is used with only two design variables to rapidly approach the optimal shape. From the near optimal rotor shape as a result of the step I, the design variables are reselected and the drawing spline curves are utilized to explain more complex shape with the Kriging model in step II. By using an optimal design procedure, we show that the optimized rotor pole shape of the spoke type IPMSM effectively reduces the torque ripple while still maintaining the average torque.

This paper deals with the reduction of cogging torque of a outer-rotor type BLDC motor mainly used for washing machines. The motor comprises permanent magnet outer-rotor and stator with coils and core. This structure inherently produces vibration and cogging torque because of uneven reluctance according to rotation of the rotor. Up to now, adopted a type of 24 magnet pole and 36 slot-stator. This generates high main torque but accompanies comparatively large cogging torque. This paper proposes a 32-pole 36-slot type motor which reduces cogging torque remarkably. The influence of cogging torque is varied according to pole-slot combinations. The characteristic of the motor was obtained by a two-dimensional finite element method coupled with a drive circuit. The performance of the proposed model is superior to that of the existing model because of the reduction of torque ripple and the improvement of back ernf wave form.

The main advantages of Disk type Single-Phase Switched Reluctance Motor (DSPSRM) is the simple construction, rugged structure, low manufacturing cost and simple driving circuit. It is especially possible to make the short axial length of DSPSRM. Therefore, it is suitable to setup this motor in a narrow space. This paper presents the shape design to maximize the average torque of DSPSRM that is achieved by 3D Finite Element Method (3D FEM) considering the nonlinear of magnetic material. The characteristics of two different rotor shapes are compared. The design parameters, such as the rotor and stator pole arc, are selected to the parametric study. The effect of pole arc ratios on the torque performance is investigated. From these results, the optimal pole arc to produce the maximum torque is determined.

In this paper a comparison of the initial rotor position estimation methods by two type search coils for switched reluctance motor(SRM) is presented. The experimental results of the two methods show that the interior central pole search coil method has better performance than the exterior pole search coil method. The reason of the discrepancy in performance is described.

Design and analysis of a novel 2-phase 4/5 Switched Reluctance Motor(SRM) is presented. The proposed motor employs a novel stator pole configuration. A novel SRM employs four-rotor and five-stator poles. The motor has no dead-zone and can be operate at any rotor position. The structure and operating principle are also described. The comparison between the proposed motor and a conventional two-phase 4/2 SRM is undertaken in this analysis. Furthermore, the Finite Element Analysis(FEA) and matlab-simulink are used to predict and simulate the performance of a proposed motor. The results of investigation indicate that the proposed structure offers a better performance in term of torque production.

Aiming at a small axial pump with a levitated rotor, an axial-type self-bearing motor is presented, which has a rotor wish four permanent magnets and two stators with two-pole three-phase windings. In this system, only the axial motion of rotor is actively controlled by two opposite self-bearing motors just like in the case of an axial magnetic bearing, while the other motions are passively stable. For rotation, It follows the theory of a four-pole three-phase synchronous motor. This paper Introduces schemes for design and control of the self-bearing motor and shows some experimental results to Prove the feasibility of application for the axial Pump.

During start up and shut down, the generator is rotating at a low speed and copper dusts cause arcing between the turns in the slot. Shorted turns occurred primarily by the movement of these copper dusts between individual windings in the generator rotor. Detection of shorted turns was performed in five gas turbine generators in two combined cycle power plants. Two types of permanent and temporary flux probes were used in this paper. These flux probes have been used to develop a methodology for detecting shorted turns in an operating generator's rotor. The flux probes sense the rotor winding slot leakage flux and produce a voltage proportional to the rate of change of the flux. This pattern of flux variation is the signature unique to each rotor winding. An appropriate waveform analysis technique canidentify the pole location, the slot number, and the number of shorted turns within each slot. Shorted turns in field winding of gas turbine generator(125.7 MVA) were detected to twelve turns on al total 190 turns.

This paper presents design procedure of the magnetic bearings used for high-speed electric machines and flywheel energy storage systems. Magnetic bearing can be categorized by inner-rotor type and outer-rotor type according to the position of the rotary disc. These two types are applicable based on application environments such as application space, required attraction force, and controllability. Magnetic bearing is generally designed based on the ratio (geometrical coefficient or geometrical efficiency) of pole width to rotor journal radius but proper ratio is only decided by the analysis. This is the difficulty of the magnetic bearing design. In this paper, proper design technology of the inner-rotor type and outer-rotor-type eight pole magnetic bearings is introduced and compared with the FEM analysis results, which verifies the proposed design procedure is suitable to be applied to the design of the magnetic bearings for the industrial applications and flywheel energy storage system.
