In this study, the authors proposed a method of controlling harmonic parasitic torque in concentrated winding induction motor and validated its theory's practicality through the experiment. To control harmonic, the rotor was skewed at an angle and to determine optimum skew angle, three dimensional electromagnetic analysis was performed. The result of analysis demonstrated larger than 20 degree skew angle, which was not conventional in distributed winding, was favorable in the proposed concentrated winding induction motor. In this investigation, 27 degree skew angle was optimal for the proposed designed motor. Additionally, in the case AC motor was designed per the proposed theory in this study, the proposed design can be manufactured more cost effectively than conventional distributed Winding .

Magnetic core components are often made from laminated sheet steel, but they are difficult to manufacture in near net shape, resulting in large core losses at higher frequencies. In this study, the pure iron powder was treated with aqueous phosphoric acid to produce phosphate insulating layer on the surface. After drying the powder, it was mixed with 0.5wt% Zn stearate and compacted in a mold with a diameter of 20mm at 800MPa. The powder compacts were then heat treated at 500°C for 1 hour. The results showed that insulated iron powder was obtained with uniform phosphate layer by chemical reaction. With increased amount of phosphate layer, the core loss and density of compacts were decreased. It was also found that the addition of ethyl alcohol during insulating reaction resulted in improved core loss value.

In this paper, we suggested the new standards of motor design in using of Soft magnetic composite (SMC) material. Previous motor design in using of SMC material executed the same procedures of silicon steel. These procedures assumed that all places of material have the same density distribution and B-H curves. But we showed that the SMC material has inequality density distribution. By using powder forming analysis with FEM analysis, we showed that difference of density distribution could not be avoided because of the shear stress on powder, surface of the mold and punch. Therefore the magnetic characteristic was not the same in all places of material. So, we suggested the new method of motor design which considered the inequality density distribution in using of SMC material. And we compared previous method results and new method results and showed the differences of the result values. The density deviation of the SMC motor core was 5.8% and efficiency deviation was 3%. Especially the output value was different above 11% when we got the results by using previous method.
