Abstract Considering the end effect, the three-dimensional finite element calculation model of the magnetic coupling is established. The three-dimensional distribution nephogram of the induced current and eddy current loss on the isolation cover is obtained, and the distribution trends of the two are consistent. The influence of size, material, and operating condition of magnetic coupling on eddy current loss is studied. The results show that the selection of isolation material with high resistivity and the reduction of isolation thickness are helpful to reduce the eddy current loss. The higher the rotating speed of the magnetic coupling, the greater the eddy current loss. At the same speed, the greater the load, the greater the magnetic declination, the smaller the eddy current loss. The research results can provide a reference for reducing energy loss and cooling structure design of magnetic coupling.

This paper deals with development of in-wheel magnetic-geared motor for walking support machines. In a previous paper, a magnetic-geared motor for a walking support machine was prototyped. However, its efficiency was low, therefore improving the efficiency is necessary for practical use. This paper presents the improving efficiency of the magnetic-geared motor from the viewpoint of torque increasing and loss reducing by using a three-dimensional finite element method (3D-FEM). In addition, supporting method of pole-pieces and eddy current loss in housing were discussed. Furthermore, the proposed motor is prototyped. The experimental results show that its efficiency is 15% higher than the previous motor. Finally, the walking support machine installed with two magnetic-geared motors is prototyped and demonstrated.

Abstract The paper presents results of analysis of the influence of rotor construction on the steady-state torque-speed characteristics of a high-speed eddy-current brake. The investigation is carried out using two- and three-dimensional finite element models and measurements. A series of computations is carried out in order to find out the method for performance improvement of the considered system.
