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.展开更多

文摘A novel mechanical variable-leakage-flux interior permanent magnet machine(MVLF-IPMM)is proposed for electric vehicles(EVs)in this paper,which employs a mechanical flux-regulating device and auxiliary rotatable magnetic poles.The magnetic poles acting as the flux adjustors can be rotated by the additional device to vary the leakage flux in magnetic circuit and realize the adjustment of the PM flux linkage.Due to the flux-regulating effect,the flux distribution in this machine is complex and changeable.Therefore,the working principle is illustrated in detail.To obtain the perfect coordination between the dominant magnetic poles and auxiliary magnetic poles,a multi-objective optimization method is presented based on the parameter sensitivity analysis combining with the Coefficient of Prognosis(CoP).Then,some design parameters with strong sensitive are selected by the sensitivity analysis and the initial model of the proposed motor is optimized by utilizing the multi-objective genetic algorithm(MOGA).According to the result of the optimization,the machine performances of the initial and the optimal design under the different flux states are compared and analyzed to verify the validity of the new variable-flux motor and the optimization method.

文摘This paper reviews various hybrid excited(HE)machines from the perspective of location of PM and DC excitation,series/parallel connection of PM and DC excited magnetic fields,and 2D/3D magnetic fields,respectively.The advantages as well as drawbacks of each category are analyzed.Since an additional control degree,i.e.DC excitation,is introduced in the HE machine,the flux weakening control strategies are more complex.The flux weakening performance as well as efficiency are compared with different control strategies.Then,the potential to mitigate the risk of uncontrolled overvoltage fault at high speed operation is highlighted by controlling the field excitation.Since additional DC coils are usually required for HE machines compared with pure PM excitation,the spatial confliction inevitably results in electromagnetic performance reduction.Finally,the technique to integrate the field and armature windings with open-winding drive circuit is introduced,and novel HE machines without a DC coil are summarized.

文摘Conventional fractional slot concentrated winding three-phase axial flux permanent magnet machines have an abundance of armature reaction magnetic field harmonics which deteriorate the torque performance of the machine.This paper presents a double-stator dislocated axial flux permanent magnet machine with combined wye-delta winding.A wye-delta(Y-△)winding connection method is designed to eliminate the 6 th ripple torque generated by air gap magnetic field harmonics.Then,the accurate subdomain method is adopted to acquire the no-load and armature magnetic fields of the machine,respectively,and the magnetic field harmonics and torque performance of the designed machine are analyzed.Finally,a 6 k W,4000 r/min,18-slot/16-pole axial flux permanent magnet machine is designed.The finite element simulation results show that the proposed machine can effectively eliminate the 6 th ripple torque and greatly reduce the torque ripple while the average torque is essentially identical to that of the conventional three-phase machines with wye-winding connection.

文摘Due to the large rotor eddy current loss and low thermal conductivity of carbon fiber sleeve,the high temperature usually occurs in high speed permanent magnet machines(HSPMMs)at the rated operation condition,resulting in irreversible demagnetization of the permanent magnet(PM).To obtain low rotor temperature,two novel rotor structures with low rotor eddy current loss are proposed in this paper.With the output torque and air gap flux density unchanged,the performance of HSPMMs with the two proposed rotor structures are analyzed based on finite element algorithm(FEA),including eddy current loss and temperature.Finally,the appropriate parameters of the proposed rotor structures are selected,and the electromagnetic(EM)performance,rotor stress and temperature are compared with those of the conventional rotor structure.Index Terms-Eddy current loss,finite element algorithm(FEA),electromagnetic(EM)performance,high speed permanent magnet machines(HSPMMs).

文摘In order to obtain better torque performance of high-speed interior permanent magnet motor(HSIPMM) and solve the problem that electromagnetic optimization design is seriously limited by its mechanical strength, a complete optimization design method is proposed in this paper. The object of optimization design is a 15 kW、20000 r/min HSIPMM whose permanent magnets in rotor is segmented. Eight structural dimensions are selected as its optimization variables. After design of experiment(DOE), multiple surrogate models are fitted, a set of surrogate models with minimum error is selected by using error evaluation indexes to optimize, the NSGA-II algorithm is used to get the optimal solution. The optimal solution is verified by load test on a 15 kW, 20000 r/min HSIPMM prototype. This paper can be used as a reference for the optimization design of HSIPMM.

文摘The performance of traditional flux switching permanent magnet tubular machine(FSPMTM)are improved by using new material and structure in this paper.The existing silicon steel sheet making for all mover cores or part of stator cores are replaced by soft magnetic composite(SMC)cores,and the lamination direction of the silicon steel sheet in stator cores have be changed.The eddy current loss of the machine with hybrid cores will be reduced greatly as the magnetic flux will not pass through the silicon steel sheet vertically.In order to reduce the influence of end effect,the unequal stator width design method is proposed.With the new design,the symmetry of the permanent magnet flux linkage has been improved greatly and the cogging force caused by the end effect has been reduced.Both 2-D and 3-D finite element methods(FEM)are applied for the quantitative analysis.
