Control of compensation in linear induction motors

The paper presents a new theory for the control of compensating winding current to eliminate the end-effect forces at all slips of a high-speed linear induction motor. The method is developed on the basis of quasi-one-dimensional solution of electrodynamic equations. Experiments have been conducted using a rotoary-type test facility, and the theoretical results are compared with the experimental results. It is found that the theoretical results agree well with the experimental results.
