Contents

The frequency converter supply of rotating-field machines stimulates an interest in machine variants where induced rotor currents are avoided and only imposed rotor currents are permitted.

The cageless reluctance machine with barrier rotor is such a variant and its prospects as a substitute for the converter-supplied cage induction motor are investigated.

Übersicht

Bei Umrichterspeisung von Drehfeldmaschinen besteht Interesse an solchen Maschinenvarianten, die keine induzierten Rotorströme aufweisen und bei denen nur eingeprägte Rotorströme vorkommen können. Die käfiglose Reluktanzmaschine mit segmentiertem Rotor ist eine solche Variante, deren Aussichten als Ersatz für den Käfigläufer-Induktionsmotor bei Umrichterspeisung untersucht werden.
