چکیده
Energy plays an important role in the paradigm of sustainable development. Nowadays, energy consumption is one of the key factors to measure the development of a country. According to the IEO2010 Reference case report (U.S. Energy Information Administration, 2010), world energy consumption will increase by 1.4 percent per year, from 495 quadrillion Btu in 2007 to 739 quadrillion Btu in 2035, as shown in Fig. 1. The increasing of global energy consumption and the great concern to preserve the environment in the face of the current scenario which includes global warming, the greenhouse effect and the depletion of natural resources, aroused the awareness of governments, along with non-governmental organizations, to accelerate adopting policies and practices that will promote efficient use of energy (IEEE-USA, 2010).

Performance Improvement of a Slotted Solid Rotor Induction Motor with High Temperature Superconder Coating
This paper analyzes an induction motor with high temperature superconducter (HTS) coated slotted solid rotor. By slotting the solid rotor, the electromagnetic torque near synchronous speed will increase but the starting torque will decrease. To improve starting torque, rotor slots are coated with HTS materials. Using HTS material vary the rotor resistance to great extends in starting step and t...

It has already been shown that based on the experimen...
متن کاملEfficiency Improvement of Induction Motor using Fuzzy-Genetic Algorithm
In most industrial zones, electric energy is one of the most important energy sources. Since electrical motors are the main energy consumers of industrial factories, consumption optimization in these motors can be considered as a main option related to energy saving. One very effective way to reduce the consumption of these equipment is to use a motor speed controllers or drives. Since the loss...
متن کاملCurrent Limitation and Speed Drop Minimization in Optimal-Efficiency of Induction Motors
In conventional direct torque control (DTC), the stator flux is usually kept constant by controlling the x-axis component of the stator voltage in the stator flux reference frame. The torque is then controlled by the y-axis component of stator voltage. In this scenario, the stator current does not exceed its permissible value. However, in the so-called optimal efficiency mode, the induction mot...

This paper considers a new switched reluctance motor (SRM) structure aiming at high starting torque with low volume. For some applications such as EVs (Electrical Vehicles), the motor volume and starting torque is a critical point in its design. In many methods, reducing the motor volume causes reduction in starting torque and decreases the motor efficiency. Unlike conventional SRMs, the rotor ...
