Comparative Analysis of Y- and Delta-Connected Windings in Line-Start Permanent Magnet Motors with Different Rotor Configurations
A line-start permanent-magnet motor (LSPM) combines the direct-on-line starting capability of a squirrel-cage induction motor (IM) with permanent-magnet-assisted synchronous operation. Previous studies on LSPM winding connections have mainly focused on load-dependent efficiency and the power factor, while their effects...
