We present an optimization design of a slotless permanent-magnet brushless dc motor (400 W, 6000 rpm), with two-segment Halbach arrays. The optimization is based on a motor analytical model which is obtained by solving the magnetic scalar potential using t ...
We present an analytical solution for the induced eddy currents and the corresponding losses generated in the rotor of a slotless permanent magnet (PM) motor. The field excitation is a current layer placed at the stator interior surface. The solution is ba ...
The paper describes the design of optimized PCB air-core toroids for high frequency DC-DC converters with strict requirements in terms of volume and noise. The effect of several design parameters on the overall inductor volume, on DC and AC winding resista ...
Rotor-flux-oriented control of multiphase induction machines with sinusoidal magnetomotive force (MMF) distribution can be realized theoretically by using only two current controllers in the synchronous reference frame. In practice, however, this is inadeq ...
Multiphase variable-speed drives, supplied from two-level voltage source inverters (VSIs), are nowadays considered for various industrial applications. Although numerous pulsewidth modulation (PWM) schemes for multiphase VSIs, aimed at sinusoidal output vo ...

The paper presents a completely analytical solution for the magnetic field, the induced eddy currents and corresponding losses in a toroidal laminated core with a rectangular cross section. The diffusion equation is analytically solved using a separation o ...
This paper addresses the design of a new hybrid MEMS micromotor. It is a small 3-phases axial flux BLDC motor. The stator is realized following the almost CMOS technology rules used for MEMS manufacture and the coils have two copper layers. The rotor is ma ...
Orthogonal fluxgate sensor for measuring an external magnetic field Hext, comprising a conductor for carrying an excitation current lexc, a ferromagnetic material adapted to saturate in the presence of a magnetic field generated by the excitation current, ...
A spare, 3.5 m long dual-channel cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) section, made according to the most recent ITER toroidal-field coil design, allowed conducting dedicated thermo-hydraulic experiments in the SULTAN test facility. The sample was heated by e ...
Multi-phase variable speed drives, supplied from two-level voltage source inverters (VSIs), are currently considered for a number of industrial applications. While various multi-phase PWM schemes had been developed, no detailed analysis of the impact of th ...
