Multicriterion optimisation approach in the design of a PSC motor

The design problem of a permanent split capacitor (PSC) single phase induction motor is presented as a nonlinear multicriterion optimisation problem. A computer package is built which receives the initial values of motor parameters and gives the optimal values of these parameters with more than one objective function and non-violated constraints. Two design problems as an application of this approach are presented. The study is supported by actual models.
