The technology of high-speed electrical machines is particularly relevant to applications involving electrical power generation and high-speed motors with high power density and high efficiency. Due to the development of improved materials for electrical machines, power electronic elements and design technology, the high-speed electrical machines are being rapidly introduced into industrial applications. The introduction of high-speed electrical machines has created a new market for electrical machines and will, as an application, contribute to the development of modern electrical machines.

High-speed permanent magnet machines are likely to be a key technology for electric drives and motion control systems for many applications, since they are conductive to high efficiency, high power density, small size and low weight. In high-speed machines, the permanent magnets are often contained within a retaining sleeve. However, the sleeve and the magnets are exposed to high order flux harmonics, which cause parasitic eddy current losses. Rotor losses of high-speed machines are of great importance especially in high-speed applications, because losses heat the rotor, which is often very compact construction and thereby difficult to cool. This causes a danger of demagnetization of the NdFeB permanent magnets. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the prediction of the rotor losses. This paper is concerned with the rotor losses in permanent magnet high-speed machines that are caused by permeance variation due to stator slotting. First, the flux harmonics are determined by double Fourier analysis of the normal flux density data over the rotor surface. And then, the rectilinear model was used to calculate rotor losses in permanent magnet machines. Finally, Poynting vector have been used to investigate the rotor eddy current losses of high-speed Permanent magnet machine.

High speed precision machines have been introduced to the CNC industry in order to improve productivity, shorten the appointed date of delivery and reduce the prime cost. High speed machines have more functions then general machines, and they were proved in performance. The production and sales of the high speed machines have been increased not only in domestic market but also all over the world. Accordingly, machines are faster, there are lots of problems to be solved. One of the most difficult problems is the thermal displacement on the main spindle due to generated heat while the spindle is rotated in high speed. Since the thermal displacement directly effects the quality of the machined parts, utmost efforts to minimize the thermal displacement have to be given from the beginning of designing machines. In practice, variety of methods are attempted and practiced to minimize the thermal displacement such as design of symmetrical frame, adoption of high speed bearings, application of compensation system using non-contact sensor and use of forced circulating lubrication system with oil cooler. Even if these variable methods have been practically used in the industrial field, generated heat has not been Perfectly Prevented lienee, in this paper, the characteristics of thermal displacement were investigated when several kinds of oil were tested for a high speed machine with forced circulating lubrication system within the same atmosphere and under the same conditions.

This paper discusses the issues associated with the design of high speed machines for applications with a wide constant-power region requirement. Using described multi-domain design environments which put equal weight on the electromagnetic, thermal and mechanical considerations, the suitability and power density achievable using Induction Machines (IM) and Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines (PMSM) are compared.

This paper proposes a sensorless speed control based on a novel extension of the torque producing flux (active flux) observer for the surface mounted permanent magnet synchronous machines (SPMSM) without additional high frequency signal injection. From the estimated torque producing flux, the rotor position and speed can be calculated at low speed due to their independency. Therefore, no rotor position sensor is required. Two approaches of the torque producing flux observer are presented and compared. The results show the stability and robustness of the expansion of the torque producing flux observer at low speed for the SPMSM.

High speed brushless permanent magnet(PM) machines need a key technology to minimize the iron core losses in stator and the eddy current losses in the retained sleeve and magnets caused by slotting harmonics. Thus, slotless or iron-coreless brushless PM machines have been applied for a very high rotational speed and/or the ripple-free torque. Unfortunately, slotless or coreless PM machines have lower open-circuit field than slotted and/or iron-cored types, which cause to reduce power density. Fortunately, Halbach array can generate the strong magnetic field systems without additional magnetic materials. In this paper, the 4-pole Halbach array is applied to the high speed machine and is compared with the radial magnetized PM array in field system. The iron-/air-cored stator of PM machine is constructed with/without winding slots. Open circuit magnetic fields of each type are presented from the analytical method and finite element method. Consequently, it is confirmed that the Halbach array field system with slotless stator is more suitable to the high speed motor because it has high flux density, sinusoidal flux distribution than others.

In high-speed PM machines, rotor losses form a larger proportion of the total losses than usual in conventional low speed machines. In order to maintain the mechanical integrity of a high-speed PM rotor intended for high-speed operation, the rotor assembly is often retained within a sleeve or can. The sleeve is exposed to field produced by the stator from either the slotting or the mmf harmonics that are not synchronous with the rotor. These non-synchronous fields cause the significant rotor losses. An optimum design of high-speed PM machines requires the accurate prediction for these rotor losses. On the basis of analytical field analysis and 2D finite element analysis (FEA), this paper deals with the rotor losses.

Enhancing the working speed and positional accuracy of high-speed press machines is essential for improving the parts accuracy and productivity. However it is known that the positional accuracy decreases and the risk of parts failure increases as the working speed of press machine increases. Therefore predicting such problems during the stage of press structure design is necessary for precise design of high-speed press machines. In the present investigation, the dynamic-elastic deformation of press drive module parts with eccentric masses was examined by finite element analysis and experiment. Then the positional accuracy and parts failure of high-speed press machines was evaluated.

Recently, more attention has been paid to the development of high-speed permanent magnet (PM) synchronous motors, since they are conductive to high efficiency, high power density, small size, and low weight. In high-speed PM machines, core loss and windage loss form a larger proportion of the total losses than usual in conventional mid- or low speed machines. This article deals with the analysis on the core loss and windage loss in PM synchronous motor for high-speed application. Using the data information from a manufacturer and non-linear curve fitting, this paper investigates the magnetic behavior and its core losses in the stator core using the electrical steels. And, the windage loss is calculated according to the variation of the rotational speed, motor inner pressure and temperature.
