The prediction of the magnetic field is a prerequisite to investigate the motor performance. This paper focuses on the magnetic field estimation of surface-mounted permanent-magnet (SMPM) motors based on two approximations, i.e., the magnetic circuit analysis and the finite-element analysis (FEA). An equivalent magnetic circuit model is applied to analytically evaluate the magnetic field of a SMPM motor with exterior-rotor configuration. The two-dimensional FEA is then applied to numerically calculate the magnetic field and to verify the validity of the magnetic circuit model. The results show that the errors between the analytical predictions and FEA results are less than 6%. It is of benefit to further design purposes and optimization of SMPM motors.

To measure current stiffness and displacement stiffness of permanent magnet biased radial magnetic bearing, a new stiffness measurement method is proposed for magnetically suspended flywheel (MSFW). The detailed stiffness measurement method is proposed in this paper. At first, the suspension force and stiffness characteristics of the permanent magnet biased radial magnetic bearing are studied using magnetic circuit method and finite element method (FEM). Second, the detailed stiffness measurement method of permanent magnet biased radial magnetic bearing is proposed. It has two procedures, one is the determination of the magnetic center in radial magnetic bearing when the gravity of rotor is in the +x(+y) direction and −x(−y) direction, respectively, then the current stiffness can be obtained, and the other is the calculation of the displacement stiffness according to the relationship between rotor displacement and current. A prototyped MSFW with angular moments of 50 Nms is manufactured, and the proposed stiffness measurement method of permanent magnet biased radial magnetic bearing is verified by prototyped experiments.

With the continuous development of society and economy, people’s demand for electric energy is increasing. The low-carbon and energy-saving technologies of renewable energy especially wave energy have become the focus of current researches. Considering the increasingly serious energy problems, a wave energy converter (WEC) is proposed based on Halbach permanent magnetic array, which increases the output performance. The equivalent magnetic circuit model of the WEC is established. The static magnetic field modeling and structural parameters optimal permanent of the WEC are performed on this theoretical. Theoretical studies have found that the optimal permanent magnet thickness ratios for Halbach permanent magnet array structures is 0.6, and the ratio of permanent magnet to coil radial ratio is 0.7. The coil winding form and rectifying circuit of the WEC were designed. The WEC equivalent magnetic circuit model was verified by COMSOL Multiphysics finite element software, and the open circuit voltages of WEC was obtained. If the WEC moves at a speed of 0.1 m/s, the coil voltage can reach about 113 V after simulation. According to the testing requirements of the WEC, a test platform was built. The Halbach permanent magnet array structures greatly enhances the wave energy collection of WEC.

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.

Permanent magnet coupling is extensively studied owing to its economic efficiency and stability. In this study, a computational model for cylindrical permanent magnet coupling (CPMC) was designed using the magnetic field division method to divide an air gap magnetic field. An equivalent magnetic circuit model was also designed based on the equivalent magnetic circuit method. The novelty of this study is that both the skin effect and the working point of the permanent magnet are taken into consideration to obtain the magnetic circuit and induce eddy current characteristics of permanent magnet coupling. Furthermore, a computational model was obtained for the transmission torque of the CPMC based on the principles of Faraday’s and Ampere’s laws. Additionally, the accuracy of the model was verified using a finite element simulation model and a test bench.

Abstract In the paper, methodologies for the magnetic field simulation in an axial flux permanent magnet coreless (AFPMC) motor have been proposed and discussed. Two approaches have been considered and investigated, both based on representing the 3D field distribution by superimposing axisymmetric 2D patterns. The first of studied approaches applies directly to the Biot-Savart law while the second uses a 2D axisymmetric finite element method. The selected results of magnetic field distributions and electromagnetic torque characteristics for the considered AFPMC motor have been presented and compared with results obtained using the commercial FEM package ‘Maxwell’. The elaborated algorithms have been incorporated into the design routines allowing multi-parameter optimisation of the considered motor construction.
