To solve the problems of rotor flux field orientation loss and operation performance degradation caused by neglecting iron loss in the conventional vector control system, a new vector control strategy based on iron loss model of induction motor (IM) is proposed in this paper. In this strategy, a slip-type indirect field oriented vector control (IFOC) is designed by setting the magnetizing currents...
Indirect rotor field oriented control (IRFOC) plays an important role in the high performance induction machine drives. In the indirect rotor field oriented control — based induction machine adjustable speed control system, the rotor field angle is usually obtained by the rotor angular velocity and the slip angular velocity. The rotor angular velocity can be sensed by an encoder with sufficient accuracy...
This paper proposes three novel dual-stator flux-modulated permanent magnet (DSFMPM) machine concepts, which are particularly suitable for direct-drive applications with the virtue of their high torque density and low operation speed.

Servo motors are widely used in many industrial applications. These motors require precise control of acceleration, speed, and position. Different designs can be found in the literature. This paper will compare the response of two of the common types and will propose a new servo motor design that uses a smaller amount of magnet, lowering the price of the motor. The proposed motor would be able to...
Variable flux memory (VFM) permanent magnet (PM) machines exhibit an additional degree-of-freedom for control, i.e. PM magnetization state, and thus excellent flux controllability. Moreover, the hybrid PM topologies having variable PM (VPM) with low coercive force and constant PM (CPM) with high coercive force at the same time, are employed to improve the torque density and the flux controllability...
An investigation into magnetic gear modulating ring design shapes and the performance of a magnetic gear integrated into an induction machine are presented. Modulating ring construction is one of the more difficult aspects of magnetic gear design, and a compromise between magnetic performance, losses in conductive supporting parts and manufacturability is often required. Six possible designs for modulating...

Axial flux machines (AFMs) are used in applications that require high power and torque densities in a pancake-type form factor. There are various types of AFMs based on the configuration of the rotor/stator and permanent magnet (PM) orientation. Most AFMs employ surface permanent magnet machines and as the result, the machine has low inductance and saliency. In this paper, an axial flux machine with...
In this paper an axial flux magnetic gear (AFMG) is proposed that has an integrated outer stator. This axial flux magnetically geared motor (AFMGM) is unique in that the stator shares the high-speed rotor with the AFMG, so there is no need for a separate rotor. The high speed and low speed rotors use a flux-focusing typology. The stator is mounted outside the AFMG and this makes the design mechanically...
