The air-gap of electrical machines may become non-uniform due to low accuracy of the manufacturing machinery, in assembling processes, or by aging. Detection and monitoring of this phenomenon is very important and of interest. There are several methods to model non-uniform air-gaps and to detect them by monitoring systems. One of the most widely used methods is by the analysis of the line curre...

Pada paper ini, peneliti membahas pengaruh lebar teeth terhadap penurunan nilai cogging torque yang berada pada permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) 18 slot 16 pole. Penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan software design electromacnetic. Dalam penelitian cara mendesain PMSG pole memvariasiakan dua desain teeth. Desain pertama 8 mm dan kedua 4 mm. Hasil didapat adalah sebesar 0.012676 ...

Most small wind turbines use permanent magnet (PM) generators. The generators are usually direct-drive (i.e., no gearbox is required). Direct-drive PM generators are characterized by low maintenance and high efficiency. Small wind turbines are usually self-starting and require very simple controls. Cogging torque is an inherent characteristic of PM generators and is caused by the geometry of th...
