The double-stator configuration of the switched reluctance machine (SRM) aims to maximise the energy conversion efficiency by optimising the ratio of motional force to the total magnetic force. Maintaining the attractive features of SRM, the double-stator switched reluctance machine (DSSRM) proves to have higher torque/power density than the conventional SRM, which is a crucial feature for traction applications. The original winding configuration used in DSSRM is the full-pitch winding, which yields high-power density but causes significant heat within the machine's end windings. As end windings do not take part in torque generation, concentrated windings were proposed to reduce the heat as well as to reduce the size, cost, and weight of the machine. This study provides a detailed comparative analysis of the effects that the winding configuration has on the performance of a 100kW DSSRM, with emphasis on flux density distribution, efficiency, and heat generation. It is concluded that the concentrated windings are a better alternative to the full-pitch windings in DSSRM.

Comparison of Matrix Converter Induction Motor Drive Control Methods Lettl, Jiri; Kuzmanovic, Dragan; Fligl, Stanislav (2011-09-10) In this paper, the implementation of the Field Oriented Control and the Direct Torque Control in matrix converter supplied induction motor drives is analysed, and compared with the implementation in drives supplied by the Voltage Source Inverter. The analysis is accompanied by the results of numerical simulations and experimental implementations of these two control methods.
Comparison of Inverter Topologies Suited for Integrated Modular Motor Drive Applications Ugur, Mesut; Sarac, Hakan; Keysan, Ozan (2018-08-30) In this paper, various inverter topologies are compared for integrated modular motor drive (IMMD) applications. Two-level voltage source inverter (2L-VSI), three level voltage source inverter (3L-VSI) and series/parallel combinations of these topologies with system level modularity are compared in terms of voltage and current harmonic spectrum, passive component sizes and motor drive efficiency. New generation wide band-gap GaN power semiconductor devices are utilized in modular topologies and they are comp...
Design of a tubular switched reluctance linear generator for wave energy conversion based on ocean wave parameters Mendes, R. P. G.; Calado, M. R. A.; Mariano, S. J. P. S.; Cabrita, C. M. P. (2011-09-10) This work presents a procedure for the design and analysis of a linear tubular switched reluctance generator for wave energy conversion. The generator is meant to be applied to a direct drive wave energy converter, namely a point absorber. The device is modeled according to wave climate conditions at Esposende site in the Portuguese coast. The procedure starts with statistical analysis of the local random ocean behavior in order to determine most likely values of occurrence for the wave parameters in questi...
Optimal design of synchronous reluctance machines Kiani, Morgan; Bostancı, Emine; Fahimi, Babak (2017-12-15) Electric machines are optimized to the extent of their magnetic configuration and manufacturability. Thanks to recent advances in development of composite material (SMC), 3-D printing, and programmable magnets, manufacturing capabilities have changed dramatically. Introducing of cloud computing and impressive computational resources has opened new opportunities in virtual prototyping in a multi-physics environment. These enabling technologies present a potential for a transformative approach in optimal desi...
HARVESTING ELECTRICAL ENERGY FROM MECHANICAL VIBRATION BY PIEZOELECTRIC MATERIALS AND PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION Ogunjinmi, Festus; Murat , Fahrioğlu; Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2022-9-2) The energy conversion performance of piezoelectric cantilever-beam energy harvesters (PCEH) is improved by developing and designing a novel. A rectangular hole is located in the middle of the metal substrate. Using the mathematical model of the PCEH, the mathematical expression of the following is derived as the eigenfrequency, displacement of the proof mass, and output voltage and power level achieved due to displacement of the cantilever carrying the piezoelectric material. We analyze the eigenfrequ...
