Abstract:The novel Stator Cage Drive marks a paradigm shift in electrical machine design by substituting layers of windings with stator bars that are short-circuited on one end of the machine. Those bars are individually fed from the opposite end of the machine, utilizing dedicated power electronic switches. Instead of being limited to one fixed MMF-distribution in the air gap, it is now possible to incorporate new degrees of freedom into the control strategy for such a machine, e.g. pole-switching during operation wit… Show more
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.
