Acceptable Error

The aim of this paper is to analyze the magnetostatic field of disk-type permanent-magnet motors by utilizing the 1-D equivalent magnetic circuit approach and the finite-element method. A 1-D equivalent magnetic circuit model, which is analogous to an electric circuit model, of the disk-type permanent-magnet motor is proposed. The accuracy of the analytical model is verified by a commercial 3-D finite-element analysis (FEA) package. The result shows that the air-gap flux density is in good agreement with an acceptable error of about 1.66%. The presented magnetic circuit approach is not only an accurate technique in predicting the magnetostatic field of disk-type permanent-magnet motors, but also effectively reduces the computing time. It is especially suitable for the preliminary design and optimization of permanent-magnet motors with axial-flux topologies.

The Magnetic Field

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.

The Relationship

This paper proposes a computation method using the equivalent magnetic circuit to analyze the driving force for the non-contact permanent magnet linear drive system. In this device, the magnetic driving force is related to the rotation angle of driving wheels. The relationship is verified by finite element analysis and measuring experiments. The result of finite element simulation is in good agreement with the model established by the equivalent magnetic circuit. Then experiments of displacement control are carried out to test the dynamic characteristic of this system. The controller of the system adopts the combination control of displacement and angle. The results indicate that the system has good performance in steady-state error and response speed, while the maximum overshoot needs to be reduced.

Magnetic Gear

This paper presents the magnetostatic field analysis of a coaxial magnetic gear device proposed by Atallah and Howe. The structural configuration and speed reduction ratio of this magnetic gear device are introduced. The 2-dimensional finite-element analysis (2-D FEA), conducted by applying commercial FEA software Ansoft/Maxwell, is performed to evaluate the magnetostatic field distribution, especially for the magnetic flux densities within the outer air-gap. Once the number of steel pole-pieces equals the sum of the pole-pair numbers of the high-speed rotor and the low-speed rotor, the coaxial magnetic gear device possesses higher magnetic flux densities, thereby generating greater transmitted torque.

Inclination Angles

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.
