This paper presents a core losses and performance calculation with different type of steel materials in the core design for three-phase induction motor by using "ANSYS Maxwell" program in order to identify the core material that provides the most effective performance by iron losses reduction. The coefficients of core losses are calculated from the magnetization curve and core Loss curve based on the on steel material databases. Although the difficult to obtain because of the little of existing information. Results show the capability of the proposed Cobalt steel (Hiperco 50) to achieve the significant losses reduction in comparison to the Electrical Steel NGO–AK Steel’s M-19 and Low Carbon Steel-SAE1020.
The brushless DC (BLDC) motor is a multi-variable and non-linear system so that it's required more advanced explaining and controlling set. In this work, an algorithm is proposed based on the harmony search algorithm (HAS) method. HSA mimics music improvisation process to find the optimal solution. In BLDC motor, many constraints are required; speed performance and current limiting control are dominated. HAS is proposed to find the optimal PID parameters for the two speed and current-limiting controllers that are proposed in the drive. By Matlab/Simulink results, a good performance is shown compared with the classical method that absence current-limiting controller.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
