Computation Time Analysis of the Magnetic Gear Analytical Model.

This paper focuses on the computation time and precision of a linear 2-D magnetic gear analytical model. Two main models of magnetic gears are studied: 1) the first with an infinite relative permeability of yokes and 2) the second with a finite relative permeability of yokes. These models are based on the subdomain resolution of Laplace and Poisson equations. To accurately compute the magnetic field distribution, it is necessary to take into account certain harmonics of the various rings and other system harmonics due to modulation. Global system harmonics, which increase the value of computation time, must also be taken into account. If the magnetic gear has a high pole number, then computation time increases even more and no longer allows for system optimization. This paper proposes to compute magnetic field distribution using different harmonic selection methods in order to significantly reduce the computation time for the magnetic torque without any loss of accuracy.
