Synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM) have rather poor power factor. This paper investigates possible methods to improve the power factor (pf) without impacting its torque density. The study found two possible aspects to improve the power factor with either refining rotor dimensions and followed by current control techniques. Although it is a non-linear mathematical field, it is analysed by analytical...
Saturation in small range SynRM is substantially high in comparison with high range motors, which results in lower power factor and efficiency. This paper investigates the impacts of saturation particularly in small rang SynRM. It mainly focusses on rib and web sizes. The ribs and webs are very vulnerable for saturation for increasing currents as they are small in size compared to other segments of...
This paper is aimed at improving the efficiency of synchronous reluctance motor (SynRM) and PM assisted SynRM (PMSRM) by optimizing flux barriers on hybrid rotors. Numerous designs are simulated, and results are presented for best possible PMSRM design with high performance by using FEM techniques. The paper reviews analytical methods on SynRM and PMSRM and then focus on SynRM FEM simulation. Two...
This study is part of research to improve the efficiency of synchronous reluctance machines. This paper presents study of optimum flux barrier width of the synchronous reluctance motor (Syn-RM) and its performance. Total of 17 designs are simulated, and post-process results are presented to conclude optimum barrier width by applying FEM techniques. However, due to the non-linear magnetic relationship...
In this paper two key features of synchronous reluctance motors (Syn-RM) are analysed and proposed for high electrical torque, power factor & efficiency using finite element method (FEM). The total width of the flux barriers is kept same for all studies throughout. The numbers of flux barriers, location of single flux barrier as well as location of multiple flux barriers are varied. FEM is used...
