Abstract: A synchronous reluctance motor includes magnetic barriers in each magnetic barrier group of a rotor core, each having a shape which protrudes toward a radial inner side and is symmetrical about a q-axis. A portion closer to a circumferential side than the q-axis includes a first portion extending perpendicular to the q-axis and a second portion extending farther toward the circumferential side from a circumferential side of the first portion and radially outward, and the first portions of the magnetic barriers in each magnetic barrier group have the same radial dimension. The first portions of the magnetic barriers other than the radial outermost magnetic barrier have the same circumferential dimension, which is the same as or twice a circumferential dimension of the first portion of the radial outermost magnetic barrier.

Abstract: A variable frequency drive motor system and method with a single variable frequency drive controller controlling multiple synchronous reluctance motors in an open-loop mode using volts-per-Hertz control. Each motor includes a rotor including three or more curved, spaced-apart barrier slots extending longitudinally through each quadrant of the rotor. The rotor also includes a conductive cage including a plurality of conductive rotor bars contained within the barrier slots and also extending longitudinally through each quadrant, and conductive end rings located at opposite ends of the rotor and electrically connected to the respective ends of the rotor bars. The controller controls speed and torque by varying input frequency and voltage in an open-loop mode by adjusting the voltage magnitude of an inverter's output to each motor to match a required load torque in a volts-per-Hertz relationship. An operator interface allows for starting, stopping, adjusting, and otherwise controlling the operation of each motor.

When the rotor is seen axially, at two circumferential sides of a magnetic flux passage that is adjacent to the magnet, a width of the magnetic flux passage adjacent a first side of the magnet is larger than a width of the magnetic flux passage near a second side of the magnet.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention provides a rotor and a motor having the rotor. By providing a plurality of flux barrier groups and slot groups at intervals in a circumferential direction of the rotor iron core, it is possible to flexibly arrange the numbers of the flux barrier groups and the slot groups so as to meet the requirements for the number of poles of different products. In addition, by flexibly adjusting the quantity ratio between the flux barrier groups and the slot groups and/or the quantity relationship between the flux barriers in the flux barrier group and the slots in the slot group, it is possible to meet the requirements for motor efficiency and starting capacity of different products. Further, since the processing jig of the rotor only requires processing of the structures of the flux barriers and the slots, the manufacturing cost can be reduced.
