A permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) with rotor embedded segmented permanent magnet was analyzed. The structural features and flux weakening principle are introduced. The shape of the rotor is optimized to get a sinusoidal air gap magnetic density waveform and reduce the toque ripple. The whole-permanent-magnet (PM) motor and the segmented-permanent-magnet motor are compared from the asp...

Permanent magnet synchronous machines are known as a good candidate for hybrid electric vehicles due to their unique merits. However they have two major drawbacks i.e. high cost and small speed range. In this paper an optimal design of a permanent magnet machine is presented. A reduction of permanent magnet material for a constant torque and an extension in speed and torque ranges are chosen as...

In this paper an approach of ferromagnetic shimming for permanent MRI magnet is presented. It is designed to reduce unhomogeneity of magnetostatic field of permanent magnet to meet the stringent requirement for MRI applications. An optimal configuration of ferromagnetic pieces is generated through calculation according to the initial field map and the demanded final homogeneity specifications. ...

The hysteresis motor is so named because it is producing mechanical torque utilizing the phenomenon of hysteresis. The rotor of a hysteresis motor is a cylindrical tube of high hysteresis loss permanent magnet material without windings or slots. This paper presents the design of a hysteresis permanent magnet motor using the finite element method. The rotor of the machine consists of 36% Cobalt ...

Abstract Nowadays, inertial confinement fusion (ICF) research related to noncontact positioning and transport of free-standing cryogenic targets is playing an increasingly important role in this field. The operational principle behind these technologies the magnetic acceleration levitating target carrier (or sabot) made from Type-II, high-temperature superconductors (HTSCs). physics interaction...

Tendencies in development of wind power industry including direct-drive small-scale wind power plants and generators have been analyzed. Synchronous generators with permanent magnet excitation for direct-drive wind power turbines are described. Primary magnetic field distribution and effect of armature reaction have been studied for design of a low-speed multipole permanent-magnet synchronous g...

Electrical motors drive a variety of loads in today’s world. Almost every industrial process relies on some kind of electrical motors and generators. There exist billions electric motors used in different applications all over the world. Majority of them are small fractional HP motors use in household appliances. However, they used about 5% of the electricity used by the motors. Three phase mot...
