In this study, we propose a non-contact 80 kW, 60,000 rpm coaxial magnetic gear (CMG) model for high speed and high power applications. Two models with the same power but different radial and axial sizes were optimized using response surface methodology. Both models employed a Halbach array to increase torque. Also, an edge fillet was applied to the radial magnetized permanent magnet to reduce torque ripple, and an axial gap was applied to the permanent magnet with a radial gap to reduce eddy current loss. The models were analyzed using 2-D and 3-D finite element analysis. The torque, torque ripple and eddy current loss were compared in both models according to the materials used, including Sm2Co17, NdFeBs (N42SH, N48SH). Also, the structural stability of the pole piece structure was investigated by forced vibration analysis. Critical speed results from rotordynamics analysis are also presented.

High Torque

Electric machines with high torque density are needed in many applications, such as electric vehicles, electric robotics, electric ships, electric aircraft, etc. and they can avoid planetary gears thus reducing manufacturing costs. This paper presents a novel axial-radial flux permanent magnet (ARFPM) machine with high torque density. The proposed ARFPM machine integrates both axial-flux and radial-flux machine topologies in a compact space, which effectively improves the copper utilization of the machine. First, the radial rotor can balance the large axial forces on axial rotors and prevent them from deforming due to the forces. On the other hand, the machine adopts Halbach-array permanent magnets (PMs) on the rotors to suppress air-gap flux density harmonics. Also, the Halbach-array PMs can reduce the total attracted force on axial rotors. The operational principle of the ARFPM machine was investigated and analyzed. Then, 3D finite-element analysis (FEA) was conducted to show the merits of the ARFPM machine. Demonstration results with different parameters are compared to obtain an optimal structure. These indicated that the proposed ARFPM machine with Halbach-array PMs can achieve a more sinusoidal back electromotive force (EMF). In addition, a comparative analysis was conducted for the proposed ARFPM machine. The machine was compared with a conventional axial-flux permanent magnet (AFPM) machine and a radial-flux permanent magnet (RFPM) machine based on the same dimensions. This showed that the proposed ARFPM machine had the highest torque density and relatively small torque ripple.

Poor stability of the permanent magnet electrodynamic levitation hinders its application in the maglev field. Therefore, building a control-oriented model to improve its stability is most challenging. However, intractable electromagnetic models leading to an implicit relationship between levitation force and gap, yields a barrier for model-based controller design. To solve the above-mentioned problem, this paper develops a control-oriented model by two stages. Specifically, the first stage is to show an explicit formula of the levitation force with regard to the levitation gap by neglecting end effect; meanwhile the “maximum–minimum rectification” method is put forward to evaluating an accurate levitation force. The second stage is to bring forth the control-oriented model on basis of the estimated levitation force. Although the paper focus mainly on the development of the control-oriented model, an example of PD controller is provided to verify its validation. Experiment results demonstrate the estimated levitation force is highly consistent with the real one. Simulation results show that the control-oriented model is sufficiently reliable. The research bridges the gap between the physical model and the model-based controller for the electrodynamic levitation with permanent magnet Halbach array.

Magnetic Suspension System

This paper proposes an improvement method of zero suspension force performance using a special permanent magnet for a magnetic suspension device. The zero suspension force of a permanent magnetic suspension device is indispensable for floating off when the suspended object is stuck on accidentally. Generally, the magnetic suspension system using permanent magnet is difficult to realize the zero suspension force, since the permanent magnet cannot make its attractive force zero. However, the proposed magnetic suspension device has realized the semi-zero power suspension and semi-zero suspension force, which mainly consists of a disk-shape permanent magnet, two “F” shape iron cores, a suspended object, and an actuator. In the magnetic suspension device, since there is magnetic leakage, the suspension force could not be made exact zero. Therefore, in this paper, the zero suspension force will be improved using a special shape permanent magnet. The comparison results indicate that the zero suspension force is decreased about 80 percent.
