  • A low cost AC motor drive for battery powered applications

    Creator:
    Wiley, Brian
    Abstract:
    Environmental concerns have renewed the interest in electric vehicles. To gain widespread use, electric vehicles will also have to offer good performance and be reasonably priced. AC drive systems using modern semiconductors can provide efficient operation at the required power levels, but their cost at present is still too high....

  • Design studies relating to the brushless doubly-fed automotive alternator

    Creator:
    Ravi, D. K.
    Abstract:
    The alternators in today's automobiles are of the claw-pole or Lundell construction, which is a readily manufactured, low-cost derivative of the conventional rotating dc field synchronous generator. The efficiency of the Lundell system is low due to a complicated magnetic circuit of predominantly solid steel and a high windage rotor...

  • Design and development of a controller for a brushless doubly-fed automotive alternator system

    Creator:
    Javadekar, Virendra S.
    Abstract:
    The loads on the electrical systems of automobiles are projected to increase significantly in the near future. This will result in a requirement for improved efficiency over the present-day car alternators. An alternative scheme proposed at Oregon State University employs a Brushless Doubly-Fed Machine (BDFM) as an alternator. This thesis...
