A Superconducting Rotary Machine (SRM) is characterized by an air-cored machine with its rotor iron and stator iron teeth removed. For this reason, the SRM is featured by 3D magnetic flux distribution, which decreases in the direction of axis, Therefore, 3D magnetic field analysis method is required to know about characteristic of magnetic field distribution of SRM, In this paper, 3D flux distribution of SRM is calculation by using analytical method. The magnetic field distribution due to the field coils use of the Biot-Savart equation. The magnetic core is represented by magnetic surface polarities. The paper describes the combined use of above methods for the total computation, and compares analytical method and 3D FEM(Finite Element Method) results.

The single phase switched reluctance motor (SRM) has many merits; simple structure and driving circuits, easy operation and speed control, and etc. This paper presents the torque characteristics of disk type single phase SRM by changing the salient pole lengths and pole arcs. The prototype single phase SRM has a three dimensional magnetic flux pattern because of its structure. That is, the radial and axial magnetic flux contributes to torque generation. Thus, 3D analysis is required for computation of its magnetic field. In this paper, 3D FEM is used for analyzing the magnetic flux distribution and magnetic co-energy.

We investigated an operating characteristic of linear-type magnetic flux pump (LTMFP) as a current compensator under the various conditions. In order to explain the mechanism of the LTMFP, the magnetic behavior of superconducting Nb foil according to pumping actions should be understood. In this paper, the magnetic field analysis of superconducting Nb foil installed in LTMFP has been performed based on the three-dimensional finite element method (3D FEM). Through the simulation analysis, the normal spot region on the superconducting Nb foil is found to be enhanced swiftly over about 20 Hz. The simulated finding agreed with an analytical estimation based on the phenomenon of magnetic diffusion.

The design of joints in a transformer core significantly affects the transformer's efficiency. Air gaps cause variations in the flux distribution at the joints of the laminations, which depend on the geometry. Two similar samples consisting of electrical steel strips and amorphous ribbons were made. The spatial flux distributions were determined using an array of search coils for each sample. 2D models of these samples were created and examined by finite element analysis. The magnetic flux distribution for each lamination in the samples was computed. The results show that the flux density in amorphous ribbons above and below the air gap starts to approach saturation at lower flux density levels than for electrical steel. The flux density measured using the search coil under the air gap is increased in amorphous ribbons and decreased in the electrical steel with increasing frequency.

Axi-periodic analysis using magnetic vector potential is formulated in time harmonic field and applied to the field analysis for the end region of large turbo generator in this paper. By using axi-periodic analysis, the effect of flux shield, one of the structure placed in the end region of large turbo generator to prevent stator end from thermal damage, is studied, and eddy current loss in the flux shield is estimated for operation conditions. 3D FEA is used for the verification of presented analysis method. Because 3D flux distribution can be calculated with 2D modeling, magnetic field showing 3D distribution can be effectively calculated by axi-periodic analysis comparing with 3D FEA.

AC Superconducting Generators (ACSG) are featured by 3D magnetic flux distribution, which decreases in the direction of axis. For this reason, when ACSG is optimal designed, 3D magnetic field analysis is required. This paper proposes 2D Finite Element Analysis (FEA) results normalized by 3D FEA according to the position of armature coil and the ratio of field coil width to axial length in order to reduce the analysis time. By using the proposed data, the reasonable 3D FEA results of ACSG can be only predicted by 2D FEA results. The validity of the 3D FEA results is verified by comparison with the experimental results of 30kVA superconducting synchronous generator.

In this paper, we performed analysis of electric field, magnetic field, current density in AMF electrode using the Maxwell 3D simulation. The current distribution and magnetic field in simple models are analyzed to verify its efficiency and accuracy. In the vicinity of the slits of axial magnetic field type electrode a comparatively high axial magnetic flux density existsIn addition the validity of FEM is confirmed by performing the analyses of distribution in current density and magnetic flux density.

In this paper, a magnetic circuit of plastic magnet roller for laser printer is presented. The magnetization direction of plastic magnet is decided by the flux distribution of injection mold during the manufacturing process. The injection mold is designed and analysed to fit the design specification. The experiment showed that the flux distribution of a magnet is good agreement of the given specification.

The purpose of this paper is to find the magnetic field distribution inside the motor in order to find out if the high-Tc superconducting tapes operate stably in actual motor operation. With this gola, magnetic field distribution in a detailed model of the actual motor was analyzed through F.E.M. (Finite Element Method). As a result, it has been proved that the high-Tc superconducting tapes can withstand 4 A of current with stability. 4 A was the amount of current needed to achieve 600 A ·turns which is required by the previous simulation aimed at developing this motor. Also, it has been observed that the flux damper reduces armature reactance during the motor operation and during load changes, helping the stable motor operation. But, it was observed that the flux damper generates loss by means of leakage flux and this decreases the output of the motor by about 5%.

A magnetic position sensor is a apparatus that detect the rotating position by measuring the value of the flux density of the rotating position. In this paper, the magnetization system of the permanent magnet in the magnetic position sensor which detects the rotating position was designed. The permanent magnet was magnetized for the flux density into the hole element to be sinusoidal distribution according to the rotating position. To make the sinusoidal distribution of flux density, the magnetization values according to the position in permanent magnet were varied by adjusting the air gap between the pole of the magnetization fixture and the surface of the permanent magnet.
