Due to the high power density, short axial size, and wide permanent magnet (PM) flux linkage regulation range, an axial-flux PM memory machine (AFPMMM) with hybrid Halbach array is investigated in this article. To solve the problem of magnetic density variation of Halbach array composed of different types of PMs in asymmetric bilateral air-gap structure, the analytical method for calculating the air-gap flux density of AFPMMM is presented through mathematical analysis, which uses cylindrical coordinate system instead of Cartesian coordinate system and is solved by equivalent method, separated variable method, and boundary conditions. The magnetic field generated by the Halbach array is divided into three directions: radial, circumferential, and axial. The analytical model is compared with the finite element method (FEM) simulation results to verify its effectiveness. In addition, an approximate piecewise linear hysteresis model with parallelogram return line is established based on the analytical expression of magnetic field. By applying different pulse currents to change the residual flux density of PM, the flux regulation characteristics of the motor are studied, and it is found that the air-gap flux density of the motor can be smoothly adjusted by continuously changing the pulse current, which plays a positive role in solving the problem of online magnetic regulation of the motor.

This article presents an accurate analytical model (AM) for synchronous reluctance machine (SynRM) that incorporates the effect of stator slots on the air gap flux density and torque waveforms. From the formulation of magnetic potential in the air gap for both the stator and rotor, the flux density is obtained, considering the first harmonic of the flux density and the electric loading, the average torque is calculated using the Lorentz’s force. The ripple torque is obtained from the energy stored in magnetic circuit. The method is developed for a rotor with one flux barrier per pole and then extended to a larger number of barriers. To validate the results obtained by the AM proposed finite element analysis have been carried out. Several comparisons have been derived considering different rotor positions as well as different harmonic orders, and the pros and cons of the method are highlighted. The model performs fast and can predict results with high accuracy, and can be adopted to speed up the preliminary design and optimizations of this type of motors, with respect to finite element. In addition, from the analytical expressions it is possible to obtain all the correlations between electrical, magnetic, and geometrical characteristics of the machine, with the advantage of enabling a faster machine design.

The peripheral magnetic field of the motor may cause magnetic field interference to the surrounding sensors, which would reduce the accuracy of sensors and affect the safety and concealment of vessel. This article explored the environmental magnetic field distribution law of a permanent magnet (PM) motor with two-pole parallel magnetization. A no-cogging magnetic field model was obtained by solving Maxwell equations, and the relationship between the air gap flux density and the environment flux density was built considering the motor cogging effect. In addition, a mathematical model of connections between the back electromotive force (EMF) and the environmental flux density was built, and the correctness of the model was verified by COMSOL. It is concluded that the circumferential and radial components of the environmental magnetic field are distributed sinusoidally, and the magnetic flux density modulus remains constant on the equidistant circumferential line, but attenuates squarely with the distance from the motor. It provides ideas for magnetic field analysis in the peripheral environment of other types of motors, sensors, and other anti-motor electromagnetic interference, magnetic field compensation for geomagnetic measurement, and motor fault diagnosis.

A new partitioned stator field modulation machine (PSFMM) with H-shape permanent magnet (HPM) excitation (HPM-PSFMM) is proposed, which is evolved from the conventional flux-switching machine (FSM) and flux-reversal machine (FRM). The proposed HPM-PSFMM combines the merits of high reliability and good heat dissipation characteristic. In addition, it exhibits high torque production with low torque ripple. Based on the theory of electrical machine operation, the FSM and FRM can be transformed into PSFMM with interior permanent magnet (IPM) and surface-mounted PM (SPM) excitation by changing the position of PM excitation, respectively. It benefits to improve space utilization and increase slot area for a large number of armature windings. For reducing the flux leakage and enhancing the flux density in air gaps, the IPM and SPM excitation are combined into HPM excitation. The iron-pole rotor between the inner and outer stators acts the role of modulator to modulate the magnetic field excited by HPM excitation to couple with the armature reaction for converting electromechanical energy. The evolution process, operating principle, and key design parameters of the proposed HPM-PSFMM are presented. Finally, using the finite element analysis (FEA), it can be proven that the proposed HPM-PSFMM has the merits of high torque production, low flux leakage, low total harmonic distortion (THD), and low torque ripple when compared to other stator-PM machines, which is a desirable choice for high stability applications.

The magnetic field distribution in the air gap is of great importance in the design of rotary machines. In this article, an efficient analytical method is presented, which is capable of plotting the air-gap flux density waveform of induction machines (IMs) less time-consuming than the finite element method (FEM) does. The proposed method, based on the product of the current linkage waveform and the permeance waveform, utilizes the calculations of the steady-state equivalent circuit to ensure the accuracy and an equivalent air-gap reluctance model to take into account both the slot opening effect and the rotor movement. The method is tested on a general IM with different load cases and different design parameters, and the results are compared to the FEM calculations. It can be concluded that the proposed analytical method is an efficient option in the motor design to investigate the influence of the parameters on the flux density distribution.

This article proposes a new hybrid-excited partitioned stator flux modulated machine with a dual-permanent magnet (HE-PSFMDPMM). The HE-PSFMDPMM employs consequent-pole (CP) permanent magnets (PMs) on the inner stator and Halbach array CP PMs on the rotor, which can yield abundant air-gap flux density working harmonics to increase the torque capability. Meanwhile, the field windings are housed in the inner stator to achieve flux weakening. The topology, working principle, and design optimization of HE-PSFMDPMM are investigated, respectively. The electromagnetic performances of HE-PSFMDPMM are analyzed and compared with that of a contrast model with conventional CP PMs on the rotor. The results indicate that by using dual-PM excitation, HE-PSFMDPMM can provide large flux linkage, high torque production with low torque ripple, and high efficiency. Meanwhile, a good flux weakening capability is obtained with the aid of direct current (dc) excitation. Moreover, compared with the contrast model, the proposed HE-PSFMDPMM with Halbach array CP PMs on the rotor can offer the merits of lower cogging torque and torque ripple, higher power factor, and better flux weakening capability.

This article proposes a novel axial field switched flux memory machine (AF-SFMM) which is analyzed by a combined analytical method. Compared with conventional axial field (AF) permanent magnet (PM) machines having magnets in the rotor side, the AF-SFMM benefits from good heat dissipation, high rotor robustness, and improved power density. Meanwhile, because of the utilization of low coercive force PM materials, the proposed machine can flexibly regulate air-gap flux. This analytical method is characterized by the combination of a quasi-3-D (quasi-3D) finite element method, a magnetomotive force–permeance-based method, and a virtual linear hysteresis model of low coercive force PM. In addition, compared with conventional time-consuming 3-D finite element analysis (FEA), the proposed method can improve the computational efficiency significantly with satisfactory accuracy. This makes the proposed combined analytical method suitable for preliminary sizing determination of AF-SFMM. Meanwhile, the effectiveness of the proposed analytical method is validated by FEA results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study investigated an efficient procedure for developing an accurate behavioral model of a cage induction motor (IM) based on the multiport Cauer ladder network (CLN). The CLN method was applied to a cage IM with semi-closed rotor slots as a model order reduction (MOR) technique, and a method for selecting the appropriate space harmonics (SHs) included in the air-gap flux density, which is necessary for a multiport CLN method for induction machines, was discussed. Then, the developed approach was applied to the transient analysis of the cage IM coupled with a control system, and its effectiveness in terms of computational accuracy and cost was investigated.

A new type of hybrid magnet dual stator field modulation machine with different split ratios of stators (DSR-HMDSFMM) is proposed in this article, which has the merit of high torque density. The split teeth of stator sever as modulators to modulate air gap flux density based on the magnetic gearing effect for high torque production. The total split tooth number of inner stator is equal to that of outer stator because the pole pair numbers of armature reaction and permanent magnet (PM) excitation on rotor are equal. Furtherly, the inner and outer stators with different split ratios and same split tooth number are employed to increase torque production because armature windings with high winding factor and high turn number can be used. In addition, the employment of hybrid magnet excitation can increase space utilization and enhance the air gap flux density with low harmonic distortion. Therefore, the proposed DSR-HMDSFMM can achieve high torque production with the same volume and PM usage. In order to find the optimal split ratio match of stators, several DSR-HMDSFMMs with different combinations of split ratios are proposed and calculated. The configuration and operating principle are illustrated, together with electromagnetic performances of the proposed machines analyzed using finite element analysis (FEA). The FEA-predicted results show that the proposed HMDSFMM exhibits high air-gap flux density with low harmonic distortion and high torque density, which is promising for the direct-drive applications.

This article presents a magnetic–pneumatic levitation system for gravity offload system of large deployable mechanisms, which combines the attractive force of magnetic stage and thrust force of air-bearing and is characterized by inner stability. The article focuses on the design of the hybrid magnetic stage. The equivalent magnetic circuit network method is used to analyze the electromagnetic (EM)-permanent hybrid magnetic field, the distribution of magnetic flux density of the air gap is solved, and then the magnetic force is obtained. To improve the design efficiency, the two-step design is adopted. First, the air gap is determined by sweeping the reluctance ratio to reduce the influence of parameter deviation of cast iron on the magnetic force. Then, the other parameters of the hybrid magnetic stage are optimized based on the multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) algorithm. Through the comparison between the results of finite-element simulation and prototype experiments, the accuracy of the model is verified, and the expected design goal is achieved.

The consequent permanent magnet (CPM) pole rotor and harmonic utilization permanent magnet (HUPM) rotor are promising candidates for electric machines with less rare earth materials. Therefore, this article focuses on the analysis and comparison of these rotor types in terms of air-gap flux density characteristics, magnet utilization, and torque density. In the first part, an analytical approach is used to investigate the magneto motive force (MMF) distribution of the rotor and air-gap flux density characteristics. In the second part, finite-element methods (FEMs) are used to compare both rotor topologies with a conventional interior permanent magnet (PM) and spoke PM rotor. The results show that CPM and HUPM rotors can reduce the volume of PMs compared with the conventional configurations. However, with the HUPM rotor, a higher torque density and magnet utilization ratio can be achieved at the same time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Fast and accurate modeling of large turbogenerators is of great importance for optimal design and commercial value. Therefore, a 2-D nonlinear magnetic equivalent circuit (MEC) model considering saturation and rotor motion is proposed in this article. When the node-based MEC adopts relaxation iteration for nonlinear calculation, it is not easy to converge by using traditional interpolation function and piecewise fitting of the core B–H or $u_{r} (B)$ curve. The main contribution of this article is to find that using continuous fitting function is of great significance for the convergence of nonlinear iteration. At the same time, a simple and effective MEC of air gap is also provided. The flux density of air gap and stator tooth obtained by the proposed method is in good agreement with results of the finite element. No-load characteristics were also verified by the finite element and experiment. The calculation time of a cycle takes about 700 s by the finite element, and however, MEC only takes about 2 s.

Offshore wind turbines are the key enabling technology to increase the green energy penetration in the electricity market. Increasing the power generation per tower and reducing the levelized cost of energy are the two significant problems faced by wind turbine manufacturers. Traditional turbine manufacturers use rare-earth permanent magnets (PMs) to increase the air-gap flux density and maximize the machine outer diameter (OD) to increase the torque output. Since the air-gap flux density achievable with available PM is limited, increasing the power output of a traditional generator invariably leads to a significant increase in the volume and mass on top of the turbine tower and associated manufacturing, transportation, and installation costs. Superconducting (SC) wind turbine generators offer 5 to 10 times the air-gap flux density of a PM generator, and a corresponding increase in specific power and power density. Previous MW scale SC wind turbines designs used heavy back iron in the design, iron saturation limits the achievable air-gap flux density in the designs and resulted in bulky generators and moderate efficiency. In this article, a hybrid design approach is proposed to reach an ultrahigh field (5 to 10 times of PM air-gap flux density) and high efficiency (>98%) SC wind turbine for offshore wind turbine. An additional stray field limitation is introduced for safety concerns and shielding techniques are explored. Electromagnetic, mechanical, and cooling designs are provided to support the feasibility of proposed SC wind turbines. A nacelle integration inside a commercially available 6 MW wind turbine is shown to demonstrate the size comparison of the proposed generator. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article, a novel spoke-type permanent magnet (PM) machine with two types of PM materials is proposed to reduce the cost. In order to improve torque density and reduce torque ripple, the multi-objective optimization combined finite element method (FEM) and genetic algorithm (GA) are used. In addition, the electromagnetic performances of the novel spoke-type PM machine, including no-load air-gap flux density, electromagnetic torque, torque ripple, efficiency, and cost are compared with the conventional spoke-type PM machine. It is demonstrated that the novel spoke-type PM machine obtains a 1.5% lower torque ripple and 36% lower cost, and the torque density is 4.3% lower than the conventional spoke-type PM machine. Meanwhile, the novel spoke-type PM machine has lower core loss and higher efficiency. Finally, a 40 kW spoke-type PM machine is manufactured to verify the analyzing method. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed machine exhibits high torque density and low cost in the application of electric vehicles (EVs). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article proposes a rotor design method suitable for double-layer interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (DIPMSM), which can reduce electromagnetic torque ripple and at the same time reduce the electromagnetic noise of the motor. In previous studies, the inverse cosine function (ICF) was used to modify the rotor shape for making the air-gap flux density distribution sinusoidal under no-load conditions, which can reduce the torque ripple. However, conventional ICF can only be used in a single-layer interior rotor structure. Consequently, this article proposes a piecewise inverse cosine function (PICF) based on ICF, which can be applied to DIPMSM. To verify the improvement of the proposed method in the electromagnetic and noise aspects of the motor, the electromagnetic model and a noise prediction model of the 36-slot/8-pole motor are established by the finite element method. The PICF model is compared with the prototype in the aspects of electromagnetic performance and noise. The torque ripple is reduced by 54.16%, from ±2.4 to ±1.1 N m, and the electromagnetic noise is reduced by about 4.9 dB. Finally, the accuracy of the noise prediction model is verified by the noise test of the prototype. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Electromagnetic performance of high-speed permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs) is studied for electro-hydrostatic actuator (EHA) applications in this article. The electromotive force (EMF) of different magnet pole-arc to pole-pitch ratios is studied. The no-load air-gap density, cogging torque, average torque, torque ripple, core loss, and rotor eddy current losses are investigated by closed slots design. The rotor eddy current losses of different magnetic retaining sleeve materials such as stainless steel, titanium alloy, and carbon fiber are calculated by finite-element analysis (FEA). The results show that, compared with the opening slot structure, the torque ripple and the rotor eddy current losses of closed slot structure are extremely reduced due to the fact that the 11th and 13th harmonics of air-gap flux density are significantly reduced and the slotting effect are effectively weakened. Increase the closed slot height not only reduce the average torque and increase the core loss but also the torque ripple and the rotor eddy current losses reduction effect is slight. A high-speed PMSM with closed slots design is prototyped to verify the analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In general, an air gap plays an important function in the magnetic core. It will enhance the stability of the inductance value of a reactor, increase the power density of the inductor, and optimize the properties of a high-frequency transformer. Hence, it is of great significance to study the influence of the air gap on the properties of magnetic cores. Based on a novel designed tester, the dynamic magnetic properties of the C-type amorphous (AMCC025) core and nanocrystalline (F3CC0125) core with different lengths of the air gaps are measured and analyzed when the cores are excited at different frequencies. In addition, the modified Steinmetz empirical formula which takes the fringing magnetic flux near the air gap into account is proposed. The calculated magnetic properties obtained from the modified formula show great agreement with the measured results. The average prediction error of the modified model is confined in 10%. Both the calculated and experimental results indicate that the influence of the fringing magnetic flux could be ignored when the length of the air gap is less than 5% length of the equivalent magnetic circuit. In particular, the frequency-dependent losses decrease to a minimum value and then increase with the increase in flux density accordingly. The modified loss model and results would be beneficial to the design of high-frequency inductors and transformer cores. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article, based on a 6-stator coil/17 rotor-tooth (6/17) conventional concentrated-winding multitooth flux-switching permanent magnet (C-MFSPM) machine, a novel full-pitch multitooth flux-switching permanent magnet (FP-MFSPM) machine is proposed by changing winding configurations. Then the electromagnetic performance of six FP-MFSPM topologies sharing the same 6-stator coil but with different rotor teeth combinations, namely, 6/13, 6/15, 6/17, 6/19, 6/21, and 6/23, is compared by using finite-element analysis (FEA). The results show that 6/17 and 6/19 are the optimal stator coil/rotor tooth combinations for FP-MFSPM machines, which exhibit better electromagnetic performance such as more enormous torque and smaller torque ripple. Thereafter, the existing C-MFSPM and the proposed FP-MFSPM machines with 6/17 and 6/19 structures are quantitatively compared in terms of no-load back electromotive force (back EMF), air-gap flux density, cogging torque, electromagnetic torque, torque ripple, and so on. The FEA-predicted results validate that the proposed FP-MFSPM machines have more sinusoidal back EMF, larger torque output, and smaller torque ripple, which are superior to the C-MFSPM topologies.
