A. Instructions
The stator coil in this motor is energized by sinusoidal 60Hz
120V AC utility source. Since the motor pole is symmetric
shape, the rotor is more likely parked at neutral position
initially, and the torque when it first energized can be either
attracting or repelling one depending on the polarity of the
source voltage. When it is repelling one, the rotor will start to
rotate but the direction would be absolutely random as theres
no traveling magnetic fields. However, once it began to rotate
in certain direction, the rotor will keep that direction due to the
inertia. In every half cycle, the torque will be an attracting
one, and therefore the speed of rotation is exactly the same as
the synchronous speed of the AC input.
The assignment given to this study was to run the motor,
under the constant load, in one desired direction instead of
random direction with the single phase PMAC motor and triac
based control circuit. The direction can be assigned either
clock wise or count clock wise, but it is assigned clock wise in
this presentation. This principle is most effective when it is
operated under constant load such as small water pump or air
fan where load is not changing within a constant speed. This

turned on unless the gate pulse and current are in right timing.
In order that the rotor continues the rotation safely, the zero
crossing of voltage should not occurs until the completion of
Tof and current. For this purpose, dependence of the Tof time
to input voltage is investigated and the results are shown in
Table 1.
A. Impulse Response
When the current is applied to the motor coils, repelling
torque is to be produced, and then the rotor is to reverse its
polarity. The time between the triggering the current and
completion of reverse of polarity is termed as rotor reversing
time, Tof in this paper. If the time, Tof, becomes too long
compared to the synchronous speed, the motor will not keep
rotating as the following torque is an attracting one and it
would tend to hold the rotor before the rotor reverses its
polarity. In vice verse, if the reversing time becomes too short,
the power efficient drops lower and acoustic noise will be
larger. To investigate rotors reversing the polarity, single
current pulses were applied by triggering the triac at extremely
long interval. The response time to change the rotor polarity
is compared as in Fig. 3.
For the motor and controller used in this study, the effect of
voltage change to reversing time was not significant. As an
example of ultimate situation, properties in case of 140V input
are investigated as shown in Fig. 4. As shown, the current is
completely dissipated before the Tof completed. Voltage zero
crossing should not be occurred until this time.

B. Angular Criterion
The input voltage can be varied within the range allowed by
national standard. As the input voltage varying, the current
can be changed, and as a result, the rotor shifting time can also
be changed accordingly. Because of this property, angular
characteristic needs to be investigated for proper control.
Lets define, f for an angle between voltage zero crossing and
falling edge of the rotor sensor signal, r for an angle between
voltage zero crossing and falling edge of the rotor sensor
signal, gt for the triac gate turn on delay angle after voltage
zero crossing, and dc for the direction checking angle. If
rotor arc angle of the poles are symmetric and p is for number
of poles, relationship in eq.(1) can be established. (In this
case, p =2)

IV. VERIFICATION
To verify the uni-directional rotation and assumptions stated
above, experiments were performed with following methods.
Near to the hall effect sensor (H1) installed for commutation
and direction monitor, one more hall sensor (H2) was installed
for the purpose of direction verification. This second halleffect sensor is located at the opposite side of stator poles
central axis from the first sensor H1. It is obvious that the
rotation is clock wise as sensor signal H2 leads the sensor
signal H1.
