The analysis of scientific papers devoted to the mathematical description of electric generators of reciprocating motion with permanent magnets demonstrated that the proposed mathematical models of this type of generators are based on the theory of magnetic circuits. Such mathematical models are based on a simplified representation of the magnetic system and the magnetic field in the form of a magnetic circuit with corresponding magnetic conductivities. However, unlike traditional rotary type electric machines, electric generators of reciprocating motion have a number of features, the omission of which in mathematical modeling causes the increase of  the cost of their creation (due to the duration of the design and experimental refinement of the generators). Therefore, at the initial stages of electromagnetic calculation and solving optimization problems, it is necessary to use adequate mathematical models to improve the accuracy of calculations of the parameters of these generators. For this purpose, a mathematical model based on field theory can be used; however, its main drawback is the complexity of its application for solving optimization problems. In this regard, to improve the accuracy of calculations of the parameters of electric generators of reciprocating motion with permanent magnets, it is proposed to use refining coefficients (coefficients of scattering and buckling of the magnetic flux) in mathematical models based on the theory of magnetic circuits. The authors have developed refined electromagnetic models of electric generators of reciprocating motion with permanent magnets, which make it possible to obtain the main parameters of generators at the initial stages of electromagnetic calculation and when solving optimization problems with acceptable accuracy. A distinctive feature of the refined electromagnetic models of generators is the consideration of the scattering and buckling coefficients of the magnetic flux in the magnetic system that change during the simulation.

A method for the parametric analysis of electric generators of reciprocating motion with permanent magnets has been developed, which allows revealing the values of the parameters of the magnetic circuit (cross-sectional area) and the working winding (number of turns) at a given value of the efficiency, providing a minimum specific gravity of the generator. The method of parametric analysis of electric generators of reciprocating motion with permanent magnets consists of three stages. The first and second stages are the electromagnetic calculation of the generator: at the first stage, the main geometric dimensions of the magnetic system and the parameters of the working winding of the generator are determined; at the second stage, the verification of the electromagnetic calculation of the generator, calculation of the nominal mode, calculation of the efficiency and assessment of the thermal state of the generator are fulfilled. At the third stage, a parametric analysis of electric generators of reciprocating motion with permanent magnets with specified constraints is carried out, as well as the refinement of the geometric dimensions and configuration of the magnetic system of the generator using a two-dimensional finite element model of the magnetic field. As a result, to ensure better use of the electrical steel of the magnetic circuit of the generator and thereby reduce its mass, the most saturated areas and areas, which are characterized by low values of the magnetic field strength, are determined. Distinctive features of the proposed technique are: the use of a minimum specific gravity of electric generators of reciprocating motion with longitudinal, transverse or combined changes in the magnetic flux passing through the working winding as an objective function; combined approach to electromagnetic calculation; taking into account the influence of the operating temperature on the parameters of the permanent magnet, as well as overheating of individual parts of the generator.

The creation of modern computer-aided design systems for devices and electrical machines of new generation, built on the basis of permanent magnets, necessitates the development of new mathematical models and effective computational algorithms. Based on mathematical models and using IT technologies, it is possible to develop both separate functional CAD blocks and an integrated system for calculating device parameters and modeling its characteristics. The paper considers a typical design of an electromechanical device with permanent magnets, which create a field with specified characteristics in the working area. At the first stage of the study, the heterogeneity of the environment was not taken into account. To calculate the strength of the magnetic field created by rectangular magnets, two mathematical models were obtained. This approach made it possible, first, to check the results of calculations and, secondly, to use mathematical models for comparative analysis when performing numerical modeling of the magnetic field characteristics for a system built, for example, using cylindrical magnets. On the foundation of developed mathematical model, an algorithm for analyzing the initial characteristics of a special device with permanent magnets is proposed. Devices of this type can be used to register small displacements. At the same time, the very scheme of the magnetic system and mathematical models describing the properties of the magnetic field can be used in the development of other types of electrical devices built using permanent magnets. A number of experiments on numerical simulation of the magnetic field pattern in the working area of the device were performed in the work. The results of the sensor signal simulation during the movement of the test body are also presented.


Rare-earth permanent magnets are widely used in the accelerators of charged particles. However, the magnetic performance under irradiation remains a key issue for the most high energy applications such as accelerators with the energy up to 10 MeV. The aim of the work was to assess radiation and magnetic stability of Sm-Co and Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets under the direct electron irradiation with the energy of 10 MeV and bremsstrahlung. Sm-Co and Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets were produced by powder metallurgy method including PLP for the latter. The absorbed dose imposed by electron beam was 16 Grad (the total flux of electron per 1 cm2 was 1.4х1017) and 160 Grad. The radiation activity of both Nd-Fe-B and Sm-Co magnets was within the acceptable limits after the irradiation. This makes rare-earth magnetic materials suitable for such applications. In order to avoid overheating during electron irradiation, magnets were cooled with the water (T=38 °С). In order to estimate the changes in magnetic flux, the integral of the 3D interpolation normal component of magnetic flux was used. Calculated S parameter measured in arbitrary units was chosen as integrated z-component of magnetic flux. It was shown that magnetic flux of Nd-Fe-B magnets became 0.92 and 0.717 of initial values for 16 Grad and 160 Grad correspondingly, but the magnetic flux of Sm-Co magnets had no change to the same absorbed doses. Thus, Sm-Co magnets were chosen for simulating and designing magnetic system for electron beam analysis of a technological accelerator with energy up to 10 MeV. The distance between the poles of the magnet was 25.25 mm. The highest magnetic field inside the magnetic system was 0.3110 T. The effective distance was 33.53 mm. The measured parameters of the magnetic system based on Sm-Co magnets agreed with the simulation experiment. Magnetic system can also be used to adjust the accelerator in the energy range up to 10 MeV.

In the linear and planar motors, the 1D Halbach magnet array is extensively used. The sinusoidal property of the magnetic field deteriorates by analyzing the magnetic field at a small air gap. Therefore, a new 1D Halbach magnet array is proposed, in which the permanent magnet with a curved surface is applied. Based on the superposition of principle and Fourier series, the magnetic flux density distribution is derived. The optimized curved surface is obtained and fitted by a polynomial. The sinusoidal magnetic field is verified by comparing it with the magnetic flux density of the finite element model. Through the analysis of different dimensions of the permanent magnet array, the optimization result has good applicability. The force ripple can be significantly reduced by the new magnet array. The effect on the mass and air gap is investigated compared with a conventional magnet array with rectangular permanent magnets. In conclusion, the new magnet array design has the scalability to be extended to various sizes of motor and is especially suitable for small air gap applications.

A method for optimizing the parameters of a modular half-speed synchronous generator with permanent magnets (PMSG) and the generator voltage control system with a neural network-based algorithm are proposed. The basic design scheme of the modular half-speed PMSG is considered, which features a compact layout of the generator main parts, thereby ensuring the optimal use of the working volume, smaller sizes of the magnetic system, and smaller mass of the active materials used in manufacturing the machine. Owing to the simple and reliable design of the generator, its output parameters can be varied in a wide range with using standard electrical circuits for voltage stabilization and current rectification along with an additional voltage regulation unit. Owing to this feature, the design scheme of the considered generator has essential advantages over the existing analogs with a common cylindrical magnetic core. In view of these circumstances, the development of a high-efficient modular half-speed PMSG as an autonomous DC power source is of both scientific and practical interest; this generator can be used to supply power to a large range of electricity consumers located in rural areas, low-rise residential areas, military communities, allotments etc. In solving the problem of optimizing the generator’s magnetic system, the main electrical machine analysis equation is obtained. The optimal ratios of the winding wire mass to the mass of permanent magnets and of the PM height to the air gap value for achieving the maximum specific useful power output have been determined. An analytical correlation between the optimal design parameters of a half-speed modular PMSG and its power performance parameters has been established. The expediency to develop a neural network-based control system is shown. The number of load-bearing modules of the half-speed PMSG is determined depending on the wind velocity, load factor and the required output voltage. The neural network was trained on the examples of a training sample using a laboratory test bench. The neural network was implemented in the MatLab 2019b environment by constructing a synchronous generator simulation model in the Simulink software extension. The possibility of using the voltage control system of a half-speed modular PMSG with a microcontroller for operation of the neural network platform of the Arduino family (ArduinoDue) independently of the PC is shown.

The article considers the possibility of applying a standard method for calculating the repulsive force for a thick high-coercive permanent magnets from samarium-cobalt alloy in a magnetic system. The results of the research allowed us to introduce correction coefficients in the method of calculating the repulsive force in a magnetic system with such magnets, depending on the air gap between of them. It is shown that the repulsive forces of the North poles of permanent magnets differ from the repulsive forces of the South poles. The research was carried out with magnets manufactured by different enterprises. When calculating the repulsive force, the average value of the repulsive force between the North and South poles of magnets is found.
