An axial flux permanent magnet (AFPM) generator is known to be a good candidate for both low- and high-speed applications. In this paper, a comprehensive comparison of four coreless AFPM generators is presented with conventional and Halbach magnet arrangement combined with iron and ironless rotor (epoxy). With the same coreless stator structure, four different AFPM generators with different rotor magnet arrangement and materials are compared in terms of voltage, current, power, machine weight, and power density. The analytical design approach is first presented and is subsequently validated using ANSYS Maxwell electromagnetic finite element analysis (FEA) software. Results show that AFPM machine with fully coreless topology using Halbach array with epoxy rotor can deliver similar power density but has a lower cost compared to conventional magnet array with iron rotor. Hence, this topology is favorable for low power low cost applications.

The present motors are required to high speed, high efficiency, high power density but low pulsating torque. Traditonal rare-earth permanent magnet motor shows its defect; Halbach Array is a new type of permanent magnet structure: magnet field presents unilateral with the sinusoidal distribution. The structure makes the magnetic density of motor’s air gap larger relatively while the magnetic density of rotor’s yoke smaller. And it can help to reduce the motor’s pulsating torque and its size, as well as to raise the power density of motor. The result of finite element analysis based on ANSYS shows that the above structure is able to decrease the mass of motor, to widen the width of air gap and obviously to improve the multi properties of motors.

In this study, we propose a non-contact 80 kW, 60,000 rpm coaxial magnetic gear (CMG) model for high speed and high power applications. Two models with the same power but different radial and axial sizes were optimized using response surface methodology. Both models employed a Halbach array to increase torque. Also, an edge fillet was applied to the radial magnetized permanent magnet to reduce torque ripple, and an axial gap was applied to the permanent magnet with a radial gap to reduce eddy current loss. The models were analyzed using 2-D and 3-D finite element analysis. The torque, torque ripple and eddy current loss were compared in both models according to the materials used, including Sm2Co17, NdFeBs (N42SH, N48SH). Also, the structural stability of the pole piece structure was investigated by forced vibration analysis. Critical speed results from rotordynamics analysis are also presented.

Network security technology ensures secure data transmission in network. Meanwhile, it brings extra overhead of security system in terms of cost and performance, which seriously affects the rapid development of existing high-speed encryption systems. The existing encryption technology cannot meet the demand of high security, low cost and high real-time. For solving above problems, an ECC encryption engine architecture based on scalable public key cipher and a high-speed configurable multiplication algorithm are designed. The algorithm was tested on FPGA platform and the experiment results show that the system has better computation speed and lower cost overhead. By comparing with other systems, our system has benefits in terms of hardware overhead and encryption time ratio

Electric machines with high torque density are needed in many applications, such as electric vehicles, electric robotics, electric ships, electric aircraft, etc. and they can avoid planetary gears thus reducing manufacturing costs. This paper presents a novel axial-radial flux permanent magnet (ARFPM) machine with high torque density. The proposed ARFPM machine integrates both axial-flux and radial-flux machine topologies in a compact space, which effectively improves the copper utilization of the machine. First, the radial rotor can balance the large axial forces on axial rotors and prevent them from deforming due to the forces. On the other hand, the machine adopts Halbach-array permanent magnets (PMs) on the rotors to suppress air-gap flux density harmonics. Also, the Halbach-array PMs can reduce the total attracted force on axial rotors. The operational principle of the ARFPM machine was investigated and analyzed. Then, 3D finite-element analysis (FEA) was conducted to show the merits of the ARFPM machine. Demonstration results with different parameters are compared to obtain an optimal structure. These indicated that the proposed ARFPM machine with Halbach-array PMs can achieve a more sinusoidal back electromotive force (EMF). In addition, a comparative analysis was conducted for the proposed ARFPM machine. The machine was compared with a conventional axial-flux permanent magnet (AFPM) machine and a radial-flux permanent magnet (RFPM) machine based on the same dimensions. This showed that the proposed ARFPM machine had the highest torque density and relatively small torque ripple.

A mechanical and optimal analyses procedure is developed to assess the stresses and deformations of Novel Wound Composite Axial-Impeller under loading conditions particular to centrifuge. This procedure is based on an analytical method and Finite Element Analysis (FEA, commercial software ANSYS) results. A low-cost, light-weight, high-performance, composite turbomachinery impeller from differently designed patterns will be evaluated. Such impellers can economically enable refrigeration plants using water as a refrigerant (R718). To create different complex patterns of impellers, MATLAB is used for creating the geometry of impellers, and CAD software UG is used to build three-dimensional impeller models. Available loading conditions are: radial body force due to high speed rotation about the cylindrical axis and fluid forces on each blade. Two-dimensional plane stress and three-dimensional stress finite element analysis are carried out using ANSYS to validate these analytical mechanical equations. The von Mises stress is investigated, and maximum stress and Tsai-Wu failure criteria are applied for composite material failure, and they generally show good agreement.

This paper presents the electromagnetic and mechanical analysis of an axial flux permanent magnet (AFPM) motor for high speed (12000 rpm) rotor which is vertically suspended by magnetic bearings. In the analysis, a prototype AFPM motor with a double-sided rotor and a coreless stator between the rotors are considered. Firstly, electromagnetic analysis of the motor is carried out by using magnetic equivalent circuit method. Then, the rotor disk thickness is determined based on a rotor axial displacement due to the attractive force between the permanent magnets placed on opposite rotor disks. Hereafter, an analytical solution is carried out to determine the natural frequencies of the rotor-shaft system. Finally, 3D finite element analysis (FEA) is carried out to verify the analytical results and some experimental results are given to verify the analytical and numerical results and prove the stable high-speed operation.

Due to its compact construction and high power density, the axial-flux permanent-magnet (AFPM) machine with coreless stator has obtained more and more attention and interest from researchers. For an AFPM machine with coreless stator, the axial magnetic attraction force may cause the rotors’ deflection and affect the machine’s reliability. In this paper, the magnetic field and the rotor mechanical strength of a coreless stator AFPM machine are studied. Finite-element method and analytic method are both used to calculate the axial attraction magnetic force between the two rotor discs. Structure finite-element analysis is used to simulate the maximum stress and deflection due to the axial magnetic force. The research is very significant to the power density elevation of the AFPM machine.
