A computer program for three-dimensional electrostatics analysis is presented that uses solid modeling principles to specify and construct problem geometries, and Delaunay tessellation to generate meshes. With the solid modeling approach, simple solid primitives are constructed by sweeping or revolving two-dimensional cross sections entered into the computer using a graphic sketch-pad and mouse. The solid primitives are then manipulated using the Boolean operations of union, intersection, and subtraction to produce complex solids. Once the problem geometry is entered, Delaunay tesselation is used to generate automatically a tetrahedral mesh that is ideal for finite-element analysis. The combination of solid modeling with Delaunay tesselation provides an extremely powerful and convenient user interface for finite-element analysis of electrostatic fields in three dimensions.<>

An analytical model has been developed to predict accurately cogging and commutating torques of permanent-magnet brushless DC machines with buried and surface-mounted magnets. Computer programs have been written to evaluate the analytical models, and the results are compared with finite-element analysis and test results. A parametric study has been performed showing the effects of some of the most important machine variables. For both machine constructions the cogging torque is reduced to zero by skewing either the rotor or the stator by one slot pitch without a considerable loss of average torque. Slot opening has a marked effect over the magnitude of the cogging torque. The number of slots of the machine also produces a large effect over cogging torque. For a fractional number of slots per pole pitch the resulting cogging torque is considerably smaller than for an integral number of slots.<>

Modeling techniques are presented which allow general-purpose circuit-analysis CAD (computer-aided design) packages to be modified and used for PWM (pulsewidth-modulated) inverter drive simulation. Circuit-equivalent PWM techniques which allow any PWM control strategy to be implemented in circuit-analysis CAD packages are presented. In addition, the details of circuit-equivalent motor models, based on two-axis theory, for transient motor performance simulation are presented. It is shown how these models can be simply interconnected to produce a complete-circuit-equivalent CAD simulation of the complete inverter-motor drive system. Typical examples, both computed and experimental, for various operational modes for both voltage-source-inverter and current-source-inverter PWM variable-speed drives are presented to confirm the validity and accuracy of the modeling techniques, and to demonstrate the advantages of the circuit-analysis CAD PWM drive package.<>

A review of techniques to control the lamp-wall temperatures of fluorescent lamps in luminaires is presented. Past results show that large increases in efficacy and light output can be obtained (to 25%) if the lamps can be operated at their optimum lamp-wall temperature.

A series inverter circuit is proposed that provides constant output frequency and a wide range of output voltage control. This circuit overcomes one of the major disadvantages of series inverters normally providing only a small range of voltage control at varying frequency. The circuit is a combination of two basic inverter circuits. The voltage control is achieved by phase-shifting the output voltages of the basic inverters. The authors provide a circuit analysis and a model to study the unsymmetrical operation of the two basic inverters in the combined circuit. Based on the analysis, the inverter performance is evaluated and design rules are established to achieve good regulation of the output voltage, low harmonic distortion and optimal inverter rating. The theoretical results are verified experimentally.<>

Selection of electrical equipment is influenced by the expected magnitudes of the short-circuit currents to which they will be exposed. The widely used application guides ANSI/IEEE C37.010-1979 and C37.5-1979 for AC high-voltage circuit breakers, as well as the IEC standard used in Europe, recommend procedures for determining circuit-breaker duty. These procedures utilize approximate calculations of fault currents. The authors present a method for more accurately approximating fault currents. Calculation of short-circuit currents by the proposed method and by the ANSI method are compared for an industrial power system.<>

A description is given of a system for dynamically calculating optimized pulsewidth-modulated (PWM) waveforms for use with voltage-source-inverter-fed induction motor drives in railway traction applications. A TMS32010 signal processing microprocessor, capable of fast arithmetic, is interfaced to novel random-access memory-based waveform-generating hardware. This provides the capability of control line waveform detail that is impossible with more conventional microprocessor-based systems. Although the authors concentrate on the implementation of a particular algorithm, the design can implement variable pulse widths in multiphase systems and in real time. An important aspect of this work is the role played by microprocessor simulation in testing the design.<>

The task of designing a gate-array-based, dedicated, three-phase PWM (pulsewidth-modulated) modulator for electric drive control is addressed. A novel slope-modulated PWM strategy is presented. Sine-wave and square-wave signal references, under several operating modes, are used to demonstrate the modulation properties. Performance parameters, such as reliable inverter switching, minimum on/off times, peak inverter switching frequency, total harmonic distortion, and pulse dropping are described. The modulator is shown to generate high-resolution PWM waveforms, with excellent performance when a variable-frequency ratio strategy is used with a sine-wave reference signal. The square-wave reference signal uses less complex digital circuitry, with a reliable operation of the inverter bridge.<>
