  2. Reluctance motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reluctance_motor

    A reluctance motor is a type of electric motor that induces non-permanent magnetic poles on the ferromagnetic rotor. The rotor does not have any windings. It generates torque through magnetic reluctance. Reluctance motor subtypes include synchronous, variable, switched and variable stepping.

  3. Switched reluctance linear motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched_reluctance_linear...

    Then a linear stepper motor of the variable reluctance type was for serial printer applications. In 1977 J.W. Finch researcher on the Linear Vernier Reluctance Stepper Motor to replace a mechanical conveyor for a trolley. In 1988-89, Takamaya developed a linear motor based on the principle of variable reluctance.

  4. Stepper motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stepper_motor

    A stepper motor, also known as step motor or stepping motor, [1] is a brushless DC electric motor that rotates in a series of small and discrete angular steps. [2] Stepper motors can be set to any given step position without needing a position sensor for feedback .

  5. Switched reluctance motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched_reluctance_motor

    The switched reluctance motor (SRM) is a type of reluctance motor. Unlike brushed DC motors , power is delivered to windings in the stator (case) rather than the rotor . This simplifies mechanical design because power does not have to be delivered to the moving rotor, which eliminates the need for a commutator .

  6. Diagram (mathematical logic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diagram_(mathematical_logic)

    In model theory, a branch of mathematical logic, the diagram of a structure is a simple but powerful concept for proving useful properties of a theory, for example the amalgamation property and the joint embedding property, among others.

  7. Magnetic reluctance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_reluctance

    Magnetic reluctance, or magnetic resistance, is a concept used in the analysis of magnetic circuits. It is defined as the ratio of magnetomotive force (mmf) to magnetic flux . It represents the opposition to magnetic flux, and depends on the geometry and composition of an object.

  8. Direct torque control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_torque_control

    These apparent advantages of the DTC are offset by the need for a higher sampling rate (up to 40 kHz as compared with 6–15 kHz for the FOC) leading to higher switching loss in the inverter; a more complex motor model; and inferior torque ripple. [1] The direct torque method performs very well even without speed sensors. However, the flux ...

  9. Variable reluctance sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_reluctance_sensor

    A variable reluctance sensor (commonly called a VR sensor) is a transducer that measures changes in magnetic reluctance.When combined with basic electronic circuitry, the sensor detects the change in presence or proximity of ferrous objects.
