Abstract

In this paper, a novel 12/14 bearingless switched reluctance motor (BLSRM) is investigated. For the conventional 12/14 BLSRM, there is only a small conduction range for positive torque generation. In order to solve this problem, shifting stator pole technology is applied in the proposed structure. It is good for increasing the output torque and simplifying the control circuit. However, the proposed motor becomes a two-phase motor. As a result, the motor can't realize self-starting at some rotor positions due to torque dead point or dead zone. Therefore, in this paper, self-starting analysis of the proposed motor is firstly analyzed. A step-airgap starting method is applied to implement self-starting at all rotor positions. Furthermore, the effect of starting method on the motor performance such as torque and suspending force is also investigated by means of finite element analysis (FEA). Finally, surface response method and genetic algorithm are employed to optimize structure parameter to improve the motor performance.
