Abstract :
The dynamic performance characteristics of polyphase hysteresis motors are presented. A mathematical model to predict the starting and synchronization process of such motors under various operating conditions is given. The model offers a tool for studying the dynamic stability of the hysteresis motor for small-scale disturbances such as changes in load torque, supply voltage, and frequency. A parametric variation is provided to highlight effects of varying some of the critical quantities like hysteresis lag angle, recoil permeability, and rotor dimensions. Two experimental rotors made of 36% and 17% cobalt-steel alloys were used in this investigation. Simulations of the dynamic behaviors of the two motors are presented. There exists a reasonably close agreement between the simulated and measured results
