Improved performance of polyphase hysteresis-reluctance motors fed from single-phase supplies

The balanced operation of a three-phase hysteresis-reluctance motor connected to a single-phase power supply was studied for both steady-state and dynamics modes of operation, and experimental tests were run to verify the analysis. Improved performance characteristics for balanced operation of a three-phase hysteresis-reluctance motor operated on a one-phase power supply are presented and optimum values of two-element balancers are shown for fast run-up as well as smooth synchronizing performances.<
