Energy efficiency and leakage magnetic field (LMF) are two important issues in inductive chargers. In this work, the maximum achievable coil efficiency and the corresponding LMF strength are formulated as functions of system parameters, and figure of merits (FOM) are proposed for assessing the efficiency and LMF performance of the coil assemblies. The target application is electric vehicle inductive chargers where the LMF is suppressed via passive shielding. The impact of the coil assembly’s geometric parameters on both FOMs is examined through a combination of finite element analysis (FEA) simulation and magnetic circuit analysis, and measures to improve the FOMs are studied Optimization of an exemplary coil assembly within given dimensional limits is conducted and the performance improvement is verified by FEA simulation results. <br>

As an important forged part of an automobile, the inner hole of the half-shaft bushing must be formed directly. However, the process requires many steps, and how the forging, or deformation, is spread over the production steps directly affects the die life and forging force required. In this paper, the three steps involved in directly forging a half shaft bushing's inner hole are simulated using the two-dimensional finite element method. Further more, we improve the forging process. From numerical calculation, the improved necessary forging force is found to be only half the original force, and the die life is doubled.

The torque shaft of shearer cutting part plays a dual-function of torque transmission and overload protection when the Shearer is working. Therefore it is necessary to study the reliability of the torque shaft. First, the parameterized torque shaft model was built on Inventor and simple parametric analysis of the torque shaft was done by its finite element analysis module. The unloading groove depth 5.079mm met the overload protection requirements. Then the model was imported into professional finite element analysis software Algor to verify the results. Linear statics analysis in Algor showed that when unloading groove depth valued 5.479mm the torque shaft would be broken once the shearer overload. The results of the analysis were reliable as no data was lost during the model interaction between Inventor and Algor.

This paper investigates an optimal design of a double-sided slotted iron core type permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM) using for ropeless elevator system. To obtain the optimal structure, the combination of response surface methodology (RSM) and two dimensional (2D) finite element analysis (FEA), which can solve the problem effectively without much time consuming, is utilized to investigate the PMLSM characteristics. Moreover, the detent force is more detailed analyzed with the manufacturing consideration. In final some numerical calculation results are reported to validate the applicability of this double-sided slotted iron core type PMLSM in ropeless elevator system. Introduction

A rigorous and accurate finite element model has been developed and applied to deal with an involute gear drive considering friction effects. The loss of torque transmission due to friction and effective friction coefficient are evaluated and computed. The rolling and/or sliding behaviors between two engaged gears during an engagement cycle are also discussed. The patterns of stress distributions and deformations of two contact gears at various engagement angles are then presented. Excellent correlations between the calculated results and referenced experimental data can be found.

Electromagnetic modelling of electrical machines through finite element analysis is an important design tool for detailed studies of high resolution. Through the usage of finite element analysis, one can study the electromagnetic fields for information that is often difficult to acquire in an experimental test bench. The requirement for accurate result is that the magnetic circuit is modelled in a correct way, which may be more difficult to maintain for rare earth free permanent magnets with an operating range that is more likely to be close to non-linear regions for the relation between magnetic flux density and magnetic field strength. In this paper, the inclination angles of the magnetic flux density, magnetic field strength and magnetization are studied and means to reduce the inclination angles are investigated. Both rotating and linear machines are investigated in this paper, with different current densities induced in the stator windings. By proper design of the pole shoes, one can reduce the inclination angles of the fields in the permanent magnet. By controlling the inclination angles, one can both enhance the performance of the magnetic circuit and increase the accuracy of simpler models for permanent magnet modelling.

Abstract A magnetic circuit model for a homopolar magnetic bearing is presented. This model connects the fore and aft circumferential flux paths with axial flux paths through the rotor and back iron. The bias flux is provided by a circumferential permanent magnet in the back iron. Results for an analysis using the nonlinear Hyperco50 B-H curve are presented. These results are compared to the results of a three dimensional magnetostatic finite element analysis. The two analytical methods are in good agreement and show that the control flux in this type of bearing follows both circumferential and axial paths.
