Park, G. H. Kang, and J. P. Hong J. B. Eom, and T. U. Jung A single-phase line-start synchronous reluctance motor (LsynRM) has merits of low cost, high efficiency, and reliability. The LSynRM has the unbalanced magnetic circuit caused by flux barriers and various shapes of conductor bars. Thus, the motor can cause the unbalanced starting torque with the initial starting position of the rotor This paper presents the design to improve starting performance of the LSynRM for household appliances. Design variables are the number and the shape of the conductor bars. The motor is analyzed by finite element (FE) analysis. A SPIM (Single-phase induction motor) for mass production, a prototype, and a designed model of LSynRM are manufactured and tested. 2013-12-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/2967 Rotor Geometry Parameter Optimization of Synchronous Reluctance Motor Using Taguchi Method Hossein AZIZI, Abolfazl VAHEDI In this paper the effect of rotor geometry parameters on the d-axis and q-axis inductance of synchronous reluctance machines is investigated and an optimum design parameter combination is achieved to improve the saliency ratio as well as the performance of drive system. The 2D finite-element model of synchronous reluctance machine is used to construct the Taguchi design of experiments. The level of importance of each design parameter on the response surface is determined by using the Taguchi algorithm and analysis of variance results. The confirmation FEM simulation results indicated that the torque to current ratio and steady state performance of synchronous reluctance machines are improved appropriately in comparison with initial design, by using the proposed Taguchi optimization methodology. 2013-10-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/2964 Synchronous Reluctance Motor for Household Applications 2013-05-01T00:00:00Z
