It consists of an upside cap and an underside cap with a rotor located between them, the magneto-rheological （MR） fluid is filled into the gaps between the rotor and the caps. When the viscosity of the MR fluid increases under the influence of the magnetic field, the movement of the rotor will be resisted. The output torque is made up of the torque caused by the magnetic field, the torque caused by the plastic viscosity of the MR fluid, and the torque caused by the coulomb friction. The viscous torque can be calculated by a simple method and the frictional torque can be obtained by experiments. The torque dependent on the magnetic field is obtained by electromagnetic finite dement analysis. Experiments are done on the damper prototype and the validity of the design is verified.展开更多

The model employed a 1D heat transfer scheme to compute iteratively the freeze profile until the thickness variable reached the terminating requirement. The calculated 2D heat dissipation from the cell surfaces was converted into the overall 3D heat loss. The potential drop of the system, freeze profile and heat balance were analyzed to evaluate their variation with technical parameters when designing the 150 kA conventional cell based drained cell. The simulation results show that the retrofitted drained cell is able to keep thermal balance under the conditions that the current is 190 kA, the anodic current density is 0.96 A/cm2, the anode-cathode distance is 2.5 cm, the alumina cover is 16 cm thick with a thermal conductivity of 0.20 W/(m·℃ ) and the electrolysis temperature is 946 ℃ .展开更多

The method is based on theregular finite element method in conjunction with three basic steps, i.e. global analysis, localanalysis, and modified global analysis. In the first two steps, a coarse finite element mesh is usedto analyze the global model to obtain the nodal potentials which are subsequently used asartificial boundary conditions for local regions of interest. These local regions with theprescribed boundary conditions are then analyzed with refined meshes to obtain more accuratepotential and density distribution In the third step, a modified global analysis is performed toobtain more improved solution for potential and density distribution. And iteratively, successivelyimproved solutions can be obtained until the desired accuracy is achieved. Various numericalexperiments show that CCM yields accurate solutions with significant savings in computing timecompared with the regular finite element method.展开更多

To solve this problem, an interior composite-rotor controllable-flux PMSM adaptive to multi-polar is proposed. This machine has the characteristics of low stator copper loss and wide-speed operation. The half-radial-set and half-tangential-set permanent magnets (PMs) are NdFeB that has high remanent flux density and high coercive force. The tangential-set PMs are AlNiCo that has high remanent flux density and low coercive force. By applying the pulse of d-axis stator current i_d, the magnetized intensity and direction of AlNiCo can be controlled. The flux created by NdFeB is repelled to stator and air-gap PM-flux is intensified, or is partially bypassed by AlNiCo in the rotor, so the air-gap PM-flux is weakened. The internal magnetic field distribution in two ultra magnetized situations is analyzed by finite element method. The dimension of PMs and magnetic structure are demonstrated. Especially when the q-axis magnetic resistance is larger and the q-axis inductance is smaller, the result of flux-weakening is better and the influence of armature reaction on air-gap PM-flux is weakened.展开更多

The purpose was to improve the power quality of a marine power system （MPS） and strengthen the energy recycle. Two structures including the magnetic or non-magnetic inner-rotor were contrasted in the magnetostatic field by using finite element analysis （FEA）. By optimally designing the size parameters, the average speed of FEA results of was 17 200 r/m, and the current was controlled between 62 and 68 A in the transient field. The electrical machine electromagnetism design was further optimized by the FEA in the temperature field, to find the local overheating point under the normal operation condition and provide guidance for the cooling system. Finally, it can be concluded from the comprehensive physical field analysis that the novel redundant structure M/G can improve the efficiency of the M/G and maintain the stability of the MPS.展开更多
