This paper is about designing the magnetizing system which is used for magnetizing the NdFeB magnet in a squirrel cage rotor. It propose the shape of the magnetizing yoke, the number of coil turn and the capacitor discharging circuit parameter. In case of magnetizing the NdFeB magnet assembled with a squirrel cage rotor, the eddy current which is produced during magnetizing becomes a disturbance in magnetizing NdFeB magnet. Hence in this paper, we try to design optimized magnetizing system with eddy current considered by FEM(Finite Element Method).

In this study, basic concepts of magnet were introduced, and dynamic characteristics of magnet coupling were explored. Based on these characteristics, it was proposed how to analyze transverse and torsional vibrations of a spindle system with magnet coupling. Proposed theoretical approaches were applied to a precision power transmission system machined for this study, and the transverse and torsional vibrations were simulated. The force on magnet coupling was shown as a form of nonlinear function of the gap and the eccentricity. Also, the form of torque transmitted by magnet coupling was considered as a sinusoidal function. Main spindle connected to a coupling of a follower part was assumed to be a rigid body. Nonlinear partial differential equation was derived to be as a function of angular displacement. By using the equation, torsional vibration analysis of a spindle system with magnet coupling was performed. Free and forced vibration analyses of a spindle system with magnetic coupling were explored by using FEM.

In this paper, we analyse the dynamic characteristic of 3-phase line start permanent magnet motor considering magnetization. Magnetization vector of NdFeB is obtained from the 2-D FEM magnetization analysis. And comparing the proposed analysis with conventional analysis method, we know that it is necessary to consider magnetization in dynamic analysis.

In this paper, the three-dimensional magnetic field created by non-periodic magnet arrays is calculated analytically. The analytical expression of the magnetic field is derived by using a magnetic charge model. The influence of ferromagnetic boundaries is formulated with an image method. Finally, we compare the results determined by analytical calculations to those from a finite element simulation.

In superconducting magnet applications, winding methods of the superconducting magnet can be classified into a layer winding and a pancake winding. The superconducting magnet using high temperature superconductor (HTS) with rectangular shape is generally fabricated using the pancake winding method. On the other hand, low temperature superconducting (LTS) magnet may be wound by either a pancake winding or a layer winding. Compared with the layer winding, the pancake winding method has a merit of easy replacement of a damaged pancake module, but it also has a demerit of requirement of splicing between each double pancake modules. In this paper, we investigated characteristics of the layer and pancake winding methods using HTS. Six samples were wound out of BSCCO and Coated Conductors (CCs) by two winding methods and their characteristics were experimentally observed.

This research has been performed to provide fundamental design aspects of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generators(PMSGs) for a kilowatt class wind turbine. When it comes to kilowatt class wind turbines, the typical type of generators are Axial Flux Permanent Magnet(AFPM) generators. However, Radial Flux Permanent Magnet(RFPM) generators have been optimally designed to study the output characteristics of a kilowatt class wind turbine in Graduate School of Wind Energy, POSTECH. An existing squirrel-cage rotor has been modified for another newly designed permanent magnet rotor to utilize the commercially existing stator rotor. Electromagnetic analysis utilizing Finite Element Methods tools(ANSYS, MAXWELL 2D) has been applied to analyze the system.

The magnet wheel which generates on its interfacing conductive part a repulsive force and a traction torque by rotation of permanent magnets is used to manipulate the conductive plate without mechanical contact. Here, the air-gap magnetic field of the magnet wheel is shielded partially to convert the traction torque into a linear thrust force. Although a magnitude of the thrust force is constant under the fixed open region, we can change the direction of force by varying a position of the shield sheet. So, the spatial position of conductive plate is controlled by not the force magnitude from each magnet wheel but the open position of shield sheet. This paper discusses non-contact conveyance system of the conductive plate using electromagnetic forces from multiple magnet wheels.

To develop a stirring device that can automatically measure the viscosity of a fluid, the impeller type of the device must be recognized without making contact. In this study, we propose a method to discriminate the type of impellers using the changes in the magnetic field. Permanent magnets are inserted into a hollow hole of the impellers, and the change of the magnetic field is measured by a hall sensor. All experimental results are compared with the FEM analysis results. The results show that with the increase in diameter and length of the magnet inserted into the impeller, the magnitude of the magnetic flux density increases. The magnetic field is more sensitive to the change in the magnet diameter than to the change in magnet length. In order to reduce the machining costs, however, it is advantageous to change the magnet length instead of the magnet diameter.

This paper deals with the core loss as well as torque characteristics according to the change of stator shape in an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM). The finite element method and functional core loss data obtained by the steinmetz equation are used in order to estimate the core loss. To minimize the core loss caused by the shape of tooth tip, slot-area and volume of permanent magnet, those are all the same in each model. In the end, the ratio between tooth width and yoke thickness to minimize the core loss in the IPMSM is presented in this paper.

An air circuit breaker (ACB) with novel double-breaker contact and permanent magnet actuator (PMA) is presented. Three-dimensional (3-D) finite element method (FEM) is employed to compute the electro-dynamic repulsion forces, including the Holm force and Lorentz force, which are acting on the static and movable contacts. The electro-dynamic repulsion forces of different contact pieces are computed, illustrating there is an optimal number of contact pieces for the ACB being studied. The electro-dynamic repulsion force of each contact, which varies from the outer position to the inner position, is also computed. Finally, the contacts of the double-breaker are manufactured according to the analyzed results to validate the simulations.
