This paper investigates the characteristics of cogging torque and magnetic force of a brushless DC (BLDC) motor due to imperfect magnetization of permanent magnet (PM) numerically and experimentally which results in the magnetically induced vibration. A predicted magnetization pattern of the PM of the BLDC motor, which is derived from the measured surface magnetic flux density along the PM, is applied to the finite element analysis in order to calculate the cogging torque and the unbalanced magnetic force. This research also develops the experimental setup to measure the unbalanced magnetic force as well as the cogging torque. It shows numerically and experimentally that the imperfect magnetization of permanent magnet generates the driving frequencies of cogging torque with integer multiple of slot number in addition to the least common multiple of pole and slot. It also shows that the driving frequencies of unbalanced magnetic force are integer multiple of slot number ${\pm}1$ due to imperfect magnetization of PM even in the rotationally symmetric design.

We present the design optimization of the magnetic pole and slot design options that minimize the cogging torque of permanent-magnet (PM) brushless generators for small wind turbine generators. Most small wind-turbines use direct-driven PM generators which have the characteristics of low speed and high efficiency. Small wind-turbines are usually self-starting and require very simple controls. The cogging torque is an inherent characteristic of PM generators, and is mainly caused by the generator's geometry. The inherent the cogging torque can cause problems during turbine start-up and cut-in in order to start softly and to run a power generator even when there is little wind power during turbine start-up. Thus, to improve the operation of small turbines, it is important to minimize the cogging torque. To determine the effects of the cogging torque reductions, we adjust the slot opening width, slot skewing, mounting method of magnets, magnet shape, and the opening and combinations of different numbers of slots per pole. Of these different methods, we combine the methods and optimized the design variables for the most significant design options affecting the cogging torque. Finally, we apply to the target design model and compare FEA simulation and measured results to validate the design optimization.

This paper compares the performances of permanent-magnet synchronous (PMS) and permanent-magnet vernier (PMV) machines for low-speed and high-torque applications. For comparison with the PMS machines, we consider two types of the PMV machine. The first one has surface-mounted permanent magnets (PMs) on the rotor and the other has PMs inserted on both sides of the stator and rotor. The PMS and PMV machines are designed to meet the condition of equal output power per unit volume. We analyze the magnetic fields of the machines using a two-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA). We then compare their performances in terms of the generated torque characteristics, power factor, loss, and efficiency.

It is well known that the accurate calculation of the field distribution is essential for the design of electrical machines. The analytical techniques for electromagnetic field can quickly and exactly determine airgap magnetic field distribution in electrical machines. Many analytical techniques have been investigated to predict the magnetic field distribution in PM machines equipped with permanent magnets. Using the analytical technique by transfer relations, D. L. Trumper and K. R. Davey already presented the design and analysis of linear permanent-magnet machines and induction machines, respectively. Using the transfer relations (Melcher's general methodology) to describe electromagnetic phenomena, this paper deals with the analysis on the magnetic field distribution due to PM and winding current, the induced voltage and the static torque characteristics in surface-mounted slotless type permanent magnet machine. The validity of the analysis results is confirmed by finite element (FE) analysis.

This paper presents the application of a simple neuro-based speed control scheme of a permanent magnet (PM) dc motor. To validate its efficiency, the performance characteristics of the proposed simple neuro-based scheme are compared with those of a Neural Network controller and those of a Fuzzy Logic controller under different operating conditions. The comparative results show that the simple neuro-based speed control scheme is robust, accurate and insensitive to load disturbances.

최근 반송장치 시스템의 구동원으로 전기자 분산배치를 이용한 영구자석 리니어 동기 모터가 사용되고 있다. 하지만, 전기자 분산배치를 이용한 영구자석 리니어 동기 모터는 구조상 필연적으로 단부가 존재하게 된다. 이러한 이유로 전기자의 철심과 가동자의 영구자석 사이에 단부 코깅력이 발생한다. 본 논문은 유한요소법을 이용한 2차원 수치해석을 통해 단부 코깅력을 고찰하였다. 또한, 단부 코깅력을 최소화하기 위해 가동자에 보조극을 설치한 형상을 제안하였다.

In this paper, a new permanent-magnet (PM) linear motor is proposed, in which both the magnets and armature windings are placed in the short mover, while the long stator consists of iron core only. Hence, this new PM linear motor can be called a primary permanent-magnet linear motor. It exhibits the advantages of robustness, low cost, high efficiency, high power factor, and high thrust force density. It is especially suitable for long stator applications such as urban rail transit. In this paper, the topology and operation principle of this motor are discussed in detail. The steady-state characteristics including field distributions, flux-linkage, back-EMF, phase inductance and thrust force are investigated. In addition, the technique of skewing stator teeth is adopted to improve the electromagnetic performance. Results from finite element method (FEM) verified the theoretical analysis results.

A novel cogging torque reduction algorithm is presented for 2-pole permanent magnet DC motor. While the shape of the permanent magnet is changed in the conventional method, the pole shape of the magnetizing yoke is optimized in the presented algorithm. In order to parameterize the shape of the yoke, and the distribution of the residual magnetization of the permanent magnet, the Bezier spline is used. The shape of the magnetizing yoke is optimized using the design sensitivity analysis incorporated with the finite element method and Bezier spline.

The effect of inductance for optimal design of Hybrid permanent magnet step motor is presented on this paper. A pull-out torque of Hybrid permanent magnet step motor is measured and calculated by varying stator coil inductances, and power consumption of the step motor also is calculated and compared to the measured value. The relation of developed torque to parer consumption by the changing of magnetomotive force magnitude in a rotor permanent magnet is studied, which is the essence of the step motor design.
