Faults and unbalance forces in the switched reluctance machine
The paper identifies and analyzes a number of severe fault conditions that can occur in the switched reluctance machine, from the electrical and mechanical points of view. It is shown how the currents, torques, and forces may be estimated, and examples are included showing the possibility of large lateral forces on the rotor. The methods used for analysis include finite-element analysis, magnetic circuit models, and experiments on a small machine specially modified for the measurement of forces and magnetization characteristics when the rotor is off-center. Also described is a computer program (PC-SRD dynamic) which is used for simulating operation under fault conditions as well as normal conditions. The paper discusses various electrical configurations of windings and controller circuits, along with methods of fault detection and protective relaying. The paper attempts to cover several analytical and experimental aspects as well as methods of detection and protection
One-way quantum computing with arbitrarily large time-frequency continuous-variable cluster states from a single optical parametric oscillator
One-way quantum computing is experimentally appealing because it requires
only local measurements on an entangled resource called a cluster state.
Record-size, but non-universal, continuous-variable cluster states were
recently demonstrated separately in the time and frequency domains. We propose
to combine these approaches into a scalable architecture in which a single
optical parametric oscillator and simple interferometer entangle up to
( frequencies) (unlimited number of temporal modes) into
a new and computationally universal continuous-variable cluster state. We
introduce a generalized measurement protocol to enable improved computational
performance on this new entanglement resource.Comment: (v4) Consistent with published version; (v3) Fixed typo in arXiv
