Abstract
As a type of magnetic device being able to realize contact-free power transmission together with sufficient volumetric torque density, the field-modulated magnetic gear (FMMG) has become a promising alternative to the mechanical gear having rigid construction yet suffering lots of issues generated by the continuous teeth friction. The conventional magnetic gears (MGs) that behave as simple copies of their mechanical counterparts and can be roughly defined as origination of the FMMG are briefly introduced at first. Subsequently, the topology and material advancements proposed to improve operational performance of the FMMG are comprehensively summarised so as to clarify its current development status. Finally, potential applications of the FMMG due to its inherent advantages are compared against the existent challenges. The review aims to provide referable guidelines for researchers working at the field of high-performance MGs.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
