Transverse flux permanent magnet linear generator (TF-PMLG) is widely used in direct drive wave energy converter (DD-WEC) because of its high power density. Traditional transverse machine (TFM) designed and built form translator-PM. But translator-PM configuration needs a large amount PM the cost long stroke application, like DD-WEC. Recently, stator-PM machines have gained more attention for r...

The permanent magnet linear generator is widely applied in the direct-drive wave energy converter (DD-WEC) because of its high power density. In this paper, a novel tubular generator, which consists multilayer and interior magnets (MI-TLPMGs), presented for DD-WEC, improves output back electromotive force (back EMF) through flux concentrating effect. However, MI-TLPMGs with embedded have severe...

To control and drive a robotic capsule accurately from outside a patient's body, we present a schema in which the capsule enclosing the imaging device, circuits, batteries, etc is looped by a permanent magnet ring that acts as an actuator. A cuboidal permanent magnet situated outside the patient's body attracts or pushes the magnet ring from different directions to make the capsule move or rota...

This paper presents a direct fuzzy adaptive control for standalone Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS) with Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generators (PMSG). The problem of maximizing power conversion from intermittent wind of time-varying, highly nonlinear WECS is dealt with by an adaptive control algorithm. The adaptation is designed based on the Lyapunov theory and carried out by the fuzzy l...

This chapter shows the ways of optimising a medium power wind power electromechanical system, generating anything up to several tens of kilowatt electric power. The optimisation criteria are based on the cost of the electromechanical generator associated with a power electronic converter; on the power efficiency; and also on a fundamental parameter, often neglected in smaller installations, whi...

Under the condition of load changing, the magnetic field of traditional permanent magnet generators (PMG) is hard to be adjusted, and the mechanical bearings are significantly worn. To overcome the drawbacks above, a novel hybrid excitation bearingless permanent magnet generator (HEBPMG) is proposed in this paper, which has integrated the merits of hybrid excitation permanent magnet generators ...

The aim of this project is to model a six step discontinuous current mode inverter fed to a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) drive using MATLAB/SIMULINK. The dq-axis Voltage-Current and Torque relation in terms of machine parameters are used along with a six step 120 degree mode inverter and gate drive using MATLAB/SIMULINK. There is also a provision for easy changes to the machine par...

Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS) have become a focal point in the research of renewable energy sources. This paper provides then a comparative study of past and present generator technologies used in WECS. This study is based on an exhaustive review of the state of the art and on an effective comparison of the performances of the four main topologies that are permanent magnet generators, s...

permanent magnet synchronous generators (pmsgs) are novel generators which can be used in high-performance wind farms. high efficiency and flexibility in producing electricity from variable rotation make them good candidate for wind power applications. furthermore, because these kinds of generators have no excitation winding, there is no copper loss on rotor; hence, they can operate at high pow...
