Permanent magnet machines with both magnetic saturation and saliency effects can be directly described via Euler-Lagrangian formulation with complex currents. The Lagrangian is the sum of a mechanical kinetic energy and a magnetic Lagrangian. This second term is expressed in terms of rotor angle, complex stator and rotor magnetizing currents. Via simple modification of magnetic Lagrangian we de...

In this paper, an operation methodology of a STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator) is proposed for reduction in Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) in power systems. For achieving this objective a comparison is made between two different configurations of Statcom.One is made up of two sets of three-level 12-pulse converter considering magnetic saturation and other is made up of two sets of three...

In this research controlled coating of magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles with SiO2 was investigated. The Fe3O4 nanoparticles were synthesized via chemical co-precipitation and then coated by silica according to Stober method. Effects of tetra ethyl ortho silicate (TEOS) concentration and ethanol to TEOS on the coating thickness were inves...

Cobalt ferrite is an important magnetic material due to their large magneto-crystalline anisotropy, high cohercivity, moderate saturation magnetization and chemical stability.In this study, cobalt ferrites Nanoparticles have been synthesized by the co-precipitation method and a new microemulsion route. We examined the cation occupancy in the spinel structure based on the “Rietveld with energies...

Recently it has been suggested that the ubiquitous saturation of electron dephasing time at low temperatures could be due to an extremely small number of magnetic impurities—even as small as a single magnetic spin. However, extensive data from a series of recent experiments at both low and high magnetic fields clearly indicate the contrary. At high magnetic fields, the spins, irrespective of th...

We study the low-temperature thermodynamic properties of a number of frustrated quantum antiferromagnets which support localized magnon states in the vicinity of the saturation field. For this purpose we use 1) a mapping of the low-energy degrees of freedom of spin systems onto the hard-core object lattice gases and 2) an exact diagonalization of finite spin systems of up to N = 30 sites. The c...

Electro deposition of NiFeWS thin films was carried out from diammonium citrate bath at a constant current density (1 A/dm 2 ) and controlled pH of 8 by varying the citrate bath concentration(0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 mol / lit). Physical properties such as surface morphology, microstructure and magnetic properties such as coercivity, saturation magnetization and magnetic flux density were investigate...

We have investigated the effect of key solar wind driving parameters on solar wind-magnetosphere coupling efficiency during sheath and magnetic cloud-driven storms. The particular focus of the study was on the coupling efficiency dependence with Alfvén Mach number (MA). The efficiency has been estimated using the dawn-dusk component of the interplanetary electric field (EY ), Newell and Borovsk...

Winding function method (WFM) provides a detailed and rather simple analytical modeling and simulation technique for analyzing performance of faulty squirrel-cage induction motors (SCIMs). Such analysis is mainly applicable for designing on-line fault diagnosis techniques. In this paper, WFM is extended to include variable degree of magnetic saturation by applying an appropriate air gap functio...
