For its secondary structure with multiple loops, it is difficult to calculate the electromagnetic thrust of NLS-LM reasonably. Hence, in this paper, one thrust calculation method is proposed considering variable loop inductance and transient loop current. Firstly, to establish the secondary winding function, the modeling domain is confined to a limited range, and the equivalent loop span is employed by analyzing the coupling relationship between primary and secondary. Then, in order to obtain the secondary flux density, the transient secondary current is solved based on the loop impedance and induced voltage. Finally, the electromagnetic thrust can be calculated reasonably by the given primary current sheet and the calculated secondary flux density. Comprehensive simulations and experiments have demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":100229,"journal":{"name":"CES Transactions on Electrical Machines and Systems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/iel7/7873789/10172142/10172145.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68147996","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Firstly, the structure with two sets of windings and the operation principle of the proposed slotted LATM is analyzed. Secondly, a brief design procedure is presented, the structure selections of open slot and double-stator single-rotor (DSSR) interior rotor with surface mounted quasi-Halbach permanent magnet (PM) array are illustrated, and the geometric parameters are optimized to obtain the optimal design of the proposed slotted LATM. Then, 3-D finite-element method (FEM) is employed to compare the proposed slotted LATM with the conventional surface mounted PM slotted LATM in terms of cogging torque, no-load back EMF, and output torque, and the results show that the proposed LATM with quasi-Halbach array has a 10% improvement in output torque and a 25% improvement in CTR. Meanwhile, the flux linkages and torque performance of the two sets of windings under various conditions verify good magnetic isolation.

Noise measurements are obtained in conditions that the coils are enclosed by the bracket, and exposed to the air for confirming the impact of Foucault current on bracket vibration. The outcomes illustrate that the bracket increases the primary noise to 21 dB. Throughout investigational modal computation, ordinary frequencies of the coils stay afar from the exciting frequency of 100 Hz but the ordinary frequency 72.924 Hz of the bracket stands near to 100 Hz, which similarly explicates the upsurge of the noise level. To do the computations on bracket vibrations instigated by the Foucault current, a finite-element method (FEM) has been utilized for evaluating the eddy current density, electromagnetic forces (EMF), coupled with bracket response in frequency domain. The calculations displayed a proper approval by mean of theoretic investigations, and the simulations analyzed effectively the bracket vibration produced by Eddy current, and the electromagnetic force (EMF). Referring to the simulation, the primary vibration characteristics, and noise level, the method by applying weights (stress) on the top bracket of transformer is proposed to lessen the vibration amplitude, and noise level. To indorse the utility, and application of the suggested technique, the experiment results are obtained, analyzed, and compared with those of simulations, primary vibration characteristics, and noise level.","PeriodicalId":100229,"journal":{"name":"CES Transactions on Electrical Machines and Systems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/iel7/7873789/10272303/10106621.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68150003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the same time, Taguchi method is used to optimize the structural parameters of the added magnetic barrier. In order to facilitate the analysis of its uneven saturation phenomenon and improve the optimization effect, a simple equivalent magnetic network (EMN) model considering the uneven saturation of rotor magnetic bridge is established in this paper, and the initial values of optimization factors are selected based on this model. Finally, the no-load back EMF waveform distortion rate, torque ripple and output torque of the optimized motor are compared and analyzed, and the influence of magnetic barrier structure parameters on the electromagnetic performance of the motor is also analyzed.

Compared with other electrical machines, it has the advantages of high torque density and high efficiency for high speed operation. However, because of its complex irregular structure, the manufacturing process using silicon sheets is complicated. Soft magnetic composite material (SMC) is manufactured by powder metallurgy technology, which can produce various shapes of stator core structures, so it is easier to produce various irregular shapes of the stator core. However, the raw SMC material is relatively expensive, and the mechanical strength of SMC is weak. In this paper, a PMCPM with hybrid cores is proposed. With the adoption of hybrid silicon sheet - SMC cores and amorphous alloy - SMC cores, the torque ability of PMCPM can be improved greatly and it can have higher efficiency for more wide operation frequency. Meanwhile, its mechanical strength has been improved and it can be designed for high torque direct drive applications as it is a modular machine. Furthermore, three methods are proposed to reduce the additional eddy current loss which resulted from the employment of hybrid cores in PMCPM.","PeriodicalId":100229,"journal":{"name":"CES Transactions on Electrical Machines and Systems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/iel7/7873789/10272303/10075353.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68150006","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
