A novel correction method for a low cost sensorless control system of IPMSM electrical drives
2008
In this paper a novel correction method for sensorless Field Oriented Control System of Brushless internal Permanent Magnet Electrical Drives is introduced discussed and experimentally validated. The novelty of this control system is the estimation of rotor speed and angular position is based on the back electromotive force space vector determination, without the aid of voltage probes. Actual voltage signals needed for estimation are replaced with the reference ones given by the current controller. This choice obviously introduces an error that have been vanished by means of a new compensating function or with the aid of data coming from experimental tests. Experimental verifications of the…
Minimization of detent force in a 1 kW linear permanent magnet generator for the conversion of sea waves energy: Numerical and experimental validation
2015
Linear permanent magnet generators are widely considered for the direct conversion of energy contained in sea waves [1-3]. Both planar and tubular structures have been proposed [4-6] and all these structures present several advantages: relative high efficiency, simplicity of the structures, high sturdiness. However, as all other linear machines they present some drawbacks: oscillations in the movement, distortion in the generated electromotive force (emf), etc. In this paper we focus our attention on the parasitic oscillations of the translator which are caused by the presence of a high detent force. Detent force is generated by the fact that magnetic energy presents a minimum when the leng…
Electric control of the spin Hall effect by intervalley transitions
2013
Controlling spin-related material properties by electronic means is a key step towards future spintronic technologies. The spin Hall effect (SHE) has become increasingly important for generating, detecting and using spin currents, but its strength-quantified in terms of the SHE angle-is ultimately fixed by the magnitude of the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) present for any given material system. However, if the electrons generating the SHE can be controlled by populating different areas (valleys) of the electronic structure with different SOC characteristic the SHE angle can be tuned directly within a single sample. Here we report the manipulation of the SHE in bulk GaAs at room temperature by m…
Effect of Hydrogen and Absence of Passive Layer on Corrosive Properties of Aluminum Alloys
2020
This paper reports the results of research on the effect of hydrogen permeation and the absence of passive layers on the variations in the corrosive properties of aluminum alloys. The study demonstrated that such variations contribute to the deterioration of corrosive properties, which in turn contributes to shortening the reliability time associated with the operation of aluminum alloy structures. The analysis involved structural aluminum alloys: EN AW-1050A, EN AW-5754, and EN AW-6060. It was demonstrated that the absorption of hydrogen by the analyzed alloys led to the shift of the electrode potential to the negative side. The built hydrogen corrosion cells demonstrate in each case the f…
Spinmotive force due to motion of magnetic bubble arrays driven by magnetic field gradient
2014
Interaction between local magnetization and conduction electrons is responsible for a variety of phenomena in magnetic materials. It has been recently shown that spin current and associated electric voltage can be induced by magnetization that depends on both time and space. This effect, called spinmotive force, provides for a powerful tool for exploring the dynamics and the nature of magnetic textures, as well as a new source for electromotive force. Here we theoretically demonstrate the generation of electric voltages in magnetic bubble array systems subjected to a magnetic field gradient. It is shown by deriving expressions for the electric voltages that the present system offers a direc…
A New Software Tool for Design, Optimization, and Complete Analysis of Rotating Electrical Machines Windings
2015
In this paper, a new software tool developed by the authors for ac winding design, optimization, and complete analysis is presented. In particular, this software can be used as a valid aid in design and analysis for a wide variety of motor and generator windings with generic number of phases (including the case of those machines in which some slots are left empty), pole pairs, slot number, and so on. The calculation of winding factors and the evaluation of their harmonic distribution is also accomplished. The software is implemented in the MATLAB programming environment. By means of some examples, covering the most relevant winding types, the capabilities of this software will be shown. In …
Electromotive Force Generation with Hydrogen Release by Salt Water Flow under a Transverse Magnetic Field
2011
By considering an electrolyte solution in motion in a duct under a transverse magnetic field, we notice that a so called Faraday voltage arises because of the Lorentz force acting on anions and cations in the fluid. When salt water is considered, hydrogen production takes place at one of the electrodes if an electric current, generated by Faraday voltage, flows in an external circuit. The maximum amount of hydrogen production rate is calculated by basic electrochemical concepts.
A Planar Generator for a Wave Energy Converter
2019
This article presents a permanent magnet planar translational generator which is able to exploit multiple modes of sea wave energy extraction. Linear electrical generators have recently been studied for the exploitation of sea wave energy, but, to the best of our knowledge, no synchronous planar translational generator has been proposed. In this article, to maximize the energy extraction, we have considered all the potential modes of motion due to wave excitation and included them within the mathematical model of the proposed system. The principle of operation of the generator can be summarized as follows: the moving part (translator) of the generator is driven from the sea waves and induce…
The Electromotive Behaviour of Single Zinc Crystals
1929
To NATURE of Jan. 12, 1929, p. 49, Paul A. Anderson communicated some measurements of his on the potentials of single crystals of zinc. The investigation of a possible change of the electrochemical potential with the changing density of zinc atoms on different planes of the crystal was also the aim of an experimental research commenced in October 1928 in the Physicochemical Laboratory of the University of Latvia, in Riga, and is now in progress. The results obtained here do not agree with those of Anderson in so far as no difference could be found in the potentials of different, artificially prepared planes of single crystals of zinc against a neutral zinc sulphate solution. It must be admi…
Electrical magnitudes in gravitational and centrifugal systems
1993
Abstract A new formulation to study the non-equilibrium processes in gravitational and centrifugal electrochemical systems is developed. The driving forces and the fluxes are measurable quantities. The electrical equilibrium and the pure electrical conduction are described in an evident, simple and exact manner. Theoretical expressions of the emf for several gravitational cells are shown. Some differences are observed with those given in the literature ( eg the terminals density does not appear). The electrochemical potential of ion species is the basic piece in this study.
