The force of a direct current (DC) electromagnetic pump used to transport liquid lithium was analyzed to optimize its geometrical and electrical parameters by numerical simulation. In a heavy-ion accelerator, which is being developed in Korea, a liquid lithium film is utilized for its high charge-stripping efficiency for heavy ions of uranium. A DC electromagnetic pump with a flow rate of $6cm^3/s$ and a developed pressure of 1.5 MPa at a temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ was required to circulate the liquid lithium to form liquid lithium films. The current and magnetic flux densities in the flow gap, where a $Sm_2Co_{17}$ permanent magnet was used to generate a magnetic field, were analyzed for the electromagnetic force distribution generated in the pump. The pressure developed by the Lorentz force on the electromagnetic force was calculated by considering the electromotive force and hydraulic pressure drop in the narrow flow channel. The opposite force at the end part due to the magnetic flux density in the opposite direction depended on the pump geometrical parameters such as the pump duct length and width that defines the rectangular channels in the nonhomogeneous distributions of the current and magnetic fields.

The goal of this study is the size and distribution of the electromagnetic force generated by the current flowing through the second underground line of 154kV power transmission cables by using electromagnetic finite element analysis. So we interpret how mutually electromagnetic force has an effect on the comparable judgement of Trefoil, Duct and Flat, which shows in a numerical arrangement. 154kV OF 1200SQ Cable 1.281km not only is applicable to modeling for underground transmission cable but also examine the effect of line to line, phase to phase and size and direction of the electromagnetic force preparing for the occurrence of normal state and single-phase earth fault, which are arranged in trefoil, duct and flat formation between sections. As showing how the trajectory, and size distribution of the electromagnetic force translate as the arrangement of the cables when a steady-state current and a fault current flows on the underground cables, I hope that when Underground transmission is designed, this data will be useful information.

An induction motor operated with high voltage source generally generates high current in starting mode and has a long transient time after being started. This large and sustaining starting current causes the end windings of the stator to have excessive electromagnetic force. This force is the source of vibration and has a negative and serious influence on the insulation of end windings. Therefore, designing the end winding part with an appropriate support system is needed. To design the support ring enclosing the end windings, we analyze the distribution of electromagnetic force on the end windings by applying the Biot-Savart's law and the 3D finite element method (FEM), and comparing two simulation methods. Finally, we verify the safety of the support structure of the end winding part using stress analysis, which is analyzed with the electromagnetic forces from the 3D FEM simulation.

In this paper, the dynamic motion driven by electromagnetic force of transformer windings is modeled and its characteristics are numerically analyzed. The electromagnetic field is obtained using the 2D finite element method taking account of anisotropic property of iron core, and the electromagnetic force on the transformer winding is calculated from Lorenz's force formula using the field distribution result. The system motion equation driven by electromagnetic force and gravitational force is numerically analyzed using the 4-order Runge-Kutta algorithm. Above analyses procedure is applied to a single-phase core-type transformer to validate its algorithm.

본 논문에서는 전력계통에서 발생되는 surge나 고장전류에 의해서 변압기의 고압측 권선에 선간단락이 발생할 경우 유도되는 전자력의 크기를 유한요소 전자계해석 프로그램을 이용하여 해석하는 방법을 제안하였다. 연구에서 사용된 배전용 변압기 model은 1[MVA], 22,900/220[V] 단상 외철형 Cable 권선형 변압기로서 권선간 단락을 모의하는 방법을 제안하고, FEM 프로그램(FLUX2D)을 이용하여 단락전류와 각방향의 전자력을 계산하고 분석하였다. 누설자속분포, 권선단락 시 전압 및 전류파형, 권선간에 작용하는 힘의 변화와 분포를 계산하였다. Simulation 방법의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 이론치와 Pspice 프로그램을 이용하여 계산한 결과와 5[%] 이내의 오차율로 아주 잘 일치함을 확인하였다. 선간단락전류는 정격전류의 약 400배이며, 전자력도 $20{\sim}200$배 정도로 급증하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 배전용 변압기의 신뢰도 향상을 위하여 변압기 코일과 절연구조 설계에 유용한 정보를 제공하게 될 것이다.

본 연구에서는 장하분배법(Load Distribution Method) 및 등가회로법(Equivalent Circuit Method)을 이용하여 액체금속이송을 위한 전자기펌프를 설계하고 제작하였다. 제작된 전자기펌프의 구동전력과 이에 상응하는 액체의 유량관계를 구하였다. 액체금속유동에 가하는 전자기 힘(Lorentz force)의 크기에 따른 유속과 유량을 수치해석기법을 이용하여 계산하였다. 수치해석결과를 상용코드인 FLUENT를 이용하여 계산한 결과와 비교하고 분석하였다. 다양한 전자기력의 크기에 대한 액체금속(우드메탈)의 평균속도에 대한 결과는 FLUENT의 결과와 5%이내의 오차 내에서 잘 일치하였다.

In magnetic systems, distribution of electromagnetic force density causes mechanical deformation, which results in noise and vibration. In this paper, Korteweg-Helmholtzs energy method and equivalent magnetic charge method are employed for comparison of their resulting distributions of force density. The force density from the Korteweg-Helmholtzs method is expresses with two Maxwell stresses on the inside and the outside fo magnetic material respectively. The other is calculated using the magnetic Coulombs law. In the numerical model of an electromagnet, their numerical results are compared. The distributions by the two methods are almost the same. And their total forces are also shown to be the same to the one calculated from the conventional Maxwell stress tensor. But the magnetic charge method is easier and more efficient in numerical calculation.

Equations have been derived for computing electromagnetic forces by using the Continuum Design Sensitivity Analysis based on the Continuum Mechanics and the Virtual Work Principle. The resultant expressions have similar terms relating to the Korteweg-Holmholz force density, Maxwell Stress Tensor and Magnetic Charge Method but numerical implementation of the proposed scheme leads to efficient calculation and improved accuracy. In addition, the method can be easily applied to computing the magnetic force distribution as well as the global force. Results show the aforementioned advantages in comparison with the conventional methods.

As computer power increased, the system with complex phenomenon has been analyzed with the help of CAE software which can handle the coupled physics, such as electromagnetic, structure, thermal and fluid physics. To predict the electromagnetic repulsion force and the temperature distribution of an air circuit breaker with electric contact mechanism, ANSYS/EMAG, FLOTRAN can be used. Although some assumptions and simplifications were introduced to simulate the model, results from the computational model were in good agreement with actual measurements obtained from experiments.

In this paper, electromagnetic forces acting on the rotor surface of a BLDC motor for hard disk drive are calculated by the finite element field analysis. The frequency characteristics of torque ripple, local force and unbalanced magnetic force as a source of mechanical vibration area analyzed. Ring-type permanent magnets for the brushless DC motor are apt to have different magnetization levels at each pole because of the unbalanced air gap between the magnet surface and the magnetizer fixture during the multi-poles magnetizing process. This paper discusses the effect of the unsymmetric magnetization distribution in the permanent magnet on the brushless DC motor performances. As a result, the unbalanced magnetic force acting on the rotor surface and the torque ripple are examined for the motor with an unsymmetric magnetization distribution, and compared with those of an ideally symmetric motor.
