Unbalance caused by uneven distribution of mass on rotational part of the hard disk drive (HDD) induces significant vibrations that can result in disk slippage, wear of the spindle motor bearing and vibration of the HDD assembly. This paper describes design and evaluation of soft balancing machine that can be used for the measurement of the unbalance of HDD or any other rotating machine. Designed balancing machine is subsequently used to achieve near perfect unbalance correction of the hard disk drive test set-up. Mass with a known weight is then added on the rotational part of the balanced HDD in order to introduce known unbalance. Next, position error signal (PES) is measured and used to evaluate the effect of known unbalance on repeatable runout (RRO) and nonrepeatable runout (NRRO). From the measurement of the position error signal it was found that the unbalance has negligible effect on nonrepeatable runout but has significant effect on the first harmonic of the repeatable runout.

This paper presents a three-phase multilevel rectifier with reduced power switches to achieve high power factor, low harmonics and high voltage capability. In the conventional three-phase neutral point clamped rectifiers, twelve power switches are used to draw the sinusoidal line currents with unity power factor. The mains drawback of these systems is the large number of power switches used in the circuits. Only six power switches with voltage rating of half DC-link are adopted in the proposed multilevel rectifier. Based on the proposed control strategy, the input power factor is close to unity and line currents are controlled to be balanced and sinusoidal. Simulation results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

The lamination material used in inverter-fed ac machines shows some non ideal effects like magnetic saturation, hysteresis losses, eddy currents, and anisotropy. This presentation focuses on the effect of magnetic anisotropy which can show up in inverter fed operation and may deteriorate the performance if not considered. The manufacturing process with rolling and punching as well as the demand to reduce the sheet thickness in order to keep losses low support the emergence of an anisotropic distribution of the crystalline energy. Though the anisotropy is smaller than in grain oriented lamination material used in transformers it is still detectable as shown by measurements made on specimen discs. In the behavior of inverter fed ac machines this effect is seen in the transient current slope as shown by measurements performed on an especially manufactured induction machine. In the fundamental wave behavior anisotropy can hardly be detected. As modern drive control methods are mostly based on fundamental wave models it has not been considered up to now. However, in the past years first methods have been proposed to exploit also the high frequency and transient electrical behavior of induction machines, especially in the fields of mechanically sensorless control as well as condition monitoring. The influence of the anisotropy effect on the transient current slope is shown by measurement results obtained from rotor laminations manually stacked in order to enlarge as well as to diminish the anisotropy. The separation of the resulting signal from possible rotor eccentricity is done using additional measurement coils in the machine.

In the past researches, strategies based on hysteresis control are proposed for controlling trilevel 3-leg center-split inverter, which can be used as a shunt power quality compensator for three-phase four-wire system. In this paper, results indicate that the complicated 3-dimensional (3D) space vector allocation of the trilevel center-split inverter can be simplified into six space vector regions of two-level center-split inverter. Thus, based on the 3D space vector modulation (3DSVM) control strategy for two-level center-split inverter, the novel 3DSVM control strategy for trilevel 3-leg center-split inverter is proposed. Different from the conventional 2-dimensional space vector modulation (2DSVM), the zero-axis component should be of a major concern in this novel 3DSVM since 3D space vectors are located in different horizontal planes and each vector contributes to zero-axis compensation. When the zero-axis component is considered, the neutral current of the three-phase four-wire system can be compensated simultaneously with three-phase current harmonics. Simulation results are given to show the validity of the proposed control strategy.

Transient stability assessment of wind power generator is one of main issues in power system security and operation. The transient stability for the wind power generator is determined by its corresponding critical clearing time (CCT). Conventionally, determination of the induction generator CCT involves a large number of trial and error methods that requires repetitive runs of related time domain simulation. In this paper, we present transient stability analysis technique for induction generator used in wind power generating system at three-phase fault conditions. The proposed method saves time in consuming the repetitive runs of related time domain simulation. The validity of the developed technique is confirmed by the results obtained from trial and error method using Matlab/Simulink.

For the double salient permanent magnet (DSPM) motor drive, it is difficult to get satisfied control characteristics by using normal linear PI controller due to the high nonlinearity between speed and current or torque. Hence, a variable PI controller, which is easily performed by a single-chip N87C196KD, is proposed according to the proportional and integral actions. The parameters of the controller are optimized by using genetic arithmetic. Both the theoretical simulation and the experiments on a prototype machine have shown that the proposed variable PI controller offers better adaptability, and that the developed DSPM motor drive offers good steady-state and dynamic performance.

This paper presents a MATLAB based technology to predict the steady state behaviour of self-excited induction generator. Taking into consideration the fact of rapid growing popularity of self-excited induction generator research has been centered on analysis, control and design of the same for standalone applications. In this paper to obtain relevant performance equations, symmetrical component theory is used to obtain performance equations. Steady state analysis is carried. To suit the computer simulation incorporating some valid simplifications from the analysis derived manageable equations. Non-linear parameters were chosen corresponding to appropriate saturation levels. Results of this simulation help us in realizing the usage of 3-phase self-induction generator in standalone power generation. Efficiency of MATLAB softwares is demonstrated for this application in contrast to earlier reported work.

The paper describes an analytical modelling technique for calculating the radial force on the rotor of a bearingless consequent-pole permanent magnet motor. The advantages of the technique is the flexibility with which it is applied so that it is used to identify vibration components and also calculate the force in a variety of situations when the rotor is not centred in the bore, i.e., when the rotor has either dynamic eccentricity, static eccentricity or when the rotor is vibrating in the stator bore. It also allows the force to be calculated with a varying load or even with load imbalance. The paper studies the effects of winding design and gives a qualitative comparison to the force calculated using 2D finite element analysis under different loads.
