In conventional direct torque control (DTC) of induction machines, undesirable flux and torque ripples are produced. These occur since non of the selected inverter's voltage vectors are able to generate the exact voltage required to produce the desired changes in the electromagnetic torque and stator flux linkage in most of the switching instances. In addition, when direct torque control is imp...

in this work, a more accurate prediction of liquid evaporation flux has been achieved. the statistical rate theory approach, which is recently introduced by ward and fang and exact estimation of vapor pressure in the layer adjacent to the liquid–vapor interface have  been used for prediction of this flux. firstly, the existence of an equilibrium layer adjacent to the liquid-vapor interface is c...

probable use of chemical and biochemical detergents to wash polysulphone membranes using in milk ultrafiltration needs a multidisciplinary investigation. by increasing use of these membranes in food processing, washing and recovery of initial permeate flux, in order to use for a longer time from this technology, has much importance. in this research, influence of chemical detergents including e...

this paper presents a sensorless system drive on primary flux oriented control (pfoc) and secondary flux oriented control (sfoc) for the linear induction motor (lim) with taking into account end effect. extended kalman filter (ekf) is applied to estimate lim speed by measuring motor voltages and currents. in order to achieve desirable dynamic and robustness motor performance instead of traditio...

single-phase squirrel cage and three-phase induction electromotors are the most popular electromotors used in industry from long ago. when an induction motor starts with direct connection method, it takes a lot of current from the power supply (several times the nominal current); so, several methods have been devised to start such electromotors. these methods either reduce the voltage of the st...

Cogging torque is the major limitation of axial flux permanent magnet motors. The reduction of cogging torque during the design process is highly desirable to enhance the overall performance of axial flux permanent magnet motors. This paper presents a double-layer magnet design technique for cogging torque reduction of axial flux permanent magnet motor. Initially, 250 W, 150 rpm axial flux brus...

The present work studied the application of membrane bioreactor (MBR) for tapioca wastewater processing that contained chemical oxygen demand (COD) ranging from 4000-9000 mg/L. A preliminary study was initially conducted in order to evaluate membrane performance with respect to its flux with MLSS concentration ranging from 4,500 to 10,500 mg/L. It was clear that fouling was observed during the ...

comNode classification within Membrane Residue Curves (M-RCMs) currently hinges on Lyapunov’s Theorem and therefore the computation of mathematically complex eigenvalues. This paper presents an alternative criterion for the classification of nodes within M-RCMs based on the total membrane flux at node compositions. This paper demonstrates that for a system exhibiting simple permeation behaviour...
