title = "Transient Analysis of a Line-Start Synchronous Reluctance Motor with Mixed Stator Winding Configurations",
abstract = "This paper presents the performance analysis of a line-start synchronous reluctance motor (LSSynRM) with mixed stator winding configurations for transient capabilities. Conventional double-layer (CDL) winding arrangements of the stator winding adopted from the induction motors are usually used in most LSSynRMs. In this paper a contrast is drawn between the LSSynRM with CDL winding arrangement and LSSynRMs with double layer with coil sides shifted (DLCS) to a foreign zone and double triple layer (DTL) winding arrangements, as pertained to their transient performance. The rotor of the LSSynRM reported in this paper has two flux barriers per pole that accommodate thick copper bars short-circuited by end rings. The Finite element method (FEM) is used to model and design the LSSynRM to study the performance of key electromagnetic parameters. Experimental measurements validate the finite element analysis (FEA) results. The results indicate that the winding arrangement with DTL has better transient capabilities than those with CDL and DLCS.",
