Combining the advantages of permanent magnet and induction motors, new synchronous reluctance motors (SynRM) offer potentially breakthrough technology for variable speed drive (VSD) and motor packages ...

Nord’s IE5+ permanent magnet synchronous motor, first releases in 2021, now offers ventilated designs and larger frame sizes. The motors are UL/CSA certified and include a larger size 90 TENV, as well ...

{Editor's note: This article originally appeared as a series of blogs in EE Times. It is replicated here in its entirety for the convenience of the EDN community.} Motors are all around us, and an ...

The two most important electric motors are the ac induction motor and the permanent magnet (PM) brushless synchronous motor, also known as the brushless dc or ac servo motor. These motors have ...

Over the years, electric motors have been applied in an ever increasing number of applications. Think back to the replacement of steam engines with AC induction motors in locomotives, the migration of ...

Energy conversion efficiency has always played an important role in electronics design, and in the case of electric motors, the conversion takes place twice: first to create the electricity needed to ...

As previously mentioned, the feedback sensors include position sensors to track the rotor’s location, current sensors to measure the motor phase currents, voltage sensors to monitor the DC bus voltage ...

Peter Nkwocha Harmony, a doctoral researcher in Electrical Electronics and Computer Engineering at Mississippi State University, has developed an innovative fault-tolerant control strategy that ...
