Model of the double-rotor induction motor in terms of electromagnetic differential

Abstract

Abstract:The paper presents a concept, a construction, a circuit model and experimental results of the double-rotor induction motor. This type of a motor is to be implemented in the concept of the electromagnetic differential. At the same time it should fulfill the function of differential mechanism and the vehicle drive. One of the motor shafts is coupled to the direction changing mechanical transmission. The windings of the external rotor are powered by slip rings and brushes. The inner rotor has the squirrel-cage windings. The circuit model parameters were calculated based on the 7.5 kW real single-rotor induction motor (2p = 4). Experimental verification of the model was based on comparison between the mentioned single-rotor motor and double-rotor model with the outer rotor blocked. The presented results showed relatively good compliance between the model and real motor.

Quasi‐discrete modelling of PMSM phase currents in drives with low switching‐to‐fundamental frequency ratio

“…Contemporarily, there is an increased interest in extending the speed range of electric motors, as this provides savings in drive's weight, volume and losses [1, 2]. One of the application fields, where the speed‐range extension is clearly notable is the drivetrain of electric and hybrid cars [3, 4]. Nowadays, such cars are typically fitted with electric motors whose speed exceed 10,000 rpm.…”

A Novel Double Rotor without Stator Electric Motor: Theoretical and Functional Aspects

“…There are theoretical descriptions about double rotor without stator permanent magnet machine [17,18]. The counter rotating induction motors are also discussed [19,20]. There are a good number of patent publications that claimed this category of electric motor design and applications, as discussed under review of patent disclosures.…”

The novel control method of switched reluctance generator

“…In the last twenty years, the intensified research is also being conducted on the development of vehicles with an electric drive system due to the development of power electronics systems, control systems as well as the technology of electrochemical accumulators production [1][2][3]. When an electric motor is used in an electric drive vehicle, the efficiency of electric energy conversion into mechanical energy (during motoring operation) is just as important as conversion of mechanical energy into electric energy (during generating operation).…”
