Abstract :
The starting and pull-in behaviour of typical, single-phase reluctance machines, with and without capacitive excitation, is explored experimentally and by computation. A comprehensive study of the effects of impedance variations on the pull-in performace is presented. This study enables new designs to be produced which are shown to exhibit greatly improved pull-in behaviour. The experimental machines are of segmented type but the general results are applicable regardless of construction.
