In this paper, the design and field analysis of the novel axial flux type permanent magnet(AFPM) motor with double stator and single rotor are investigated. The various design schemes of AFPM based on 3D finite element method are proposed. The effects of slot shapes, various magnetization of PM, and skewing on the cogging torque and average torque have been investigated in detail. From the results, we can improve the cogging torque and average torque characteristics.

As a high energy permanent magnet is commonly applied to motors so that small motors have high power capacities, it is also necessary to reduce a cogging torque which causes a noise and vibration in permanent magnet motors. The patterns of cogging torque in permanent magnet motors depend on the magnetic field distributions, so it is possible to reduce a cogging torque by designing a core shapes optimally. But it is known that an optimum design algorithm for reduction of cogging torques is too complicated and the process to get an optimized core shape is time consuming task. In this paper, new simplified core shapes are suggested to reduce a design parameters so that the core shapes to reduce a cogging torques could be obtained with simple computations. The result shows that the cogging torques of permanent magnet motors with this simplified core shapes could be reduced effectively without any loss of average torques.

This paper deals with the design process for an outer-rotor-type surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) used in continuous variable valve timing (CVVT) systems in automobiles with internal combustion engines. When the same size, outer-rotor-type SPMSMs generate larger torque and more stable than inner-rotor-type SPMSMs. For the initial design, space harmonic analysis (SHA) is used. In order to minimize the cogging torque, an optimization was conducted using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). At the end of the paper, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is performed to verify the performance of the optimum model.

This paper presents an optimization of permanent magnet (PM) in a brushless dc (BLDC) motor using the response surface methodology (RSM). Size and angle of the PM are optimized to minimize the cogging torque, while reducing the magnitude of harmonic at a dominant frequency and maintaining the operating torque. A fitted RS model is constructed by verifying the high reliability of the total variation and the variation of estimated error. The optimized design is validated by carrying out the reanalysis and comparing to the initial model using the nonlinear transient finite element analysis.

This paper presents the rotor shape optimization of an interior type permanent magnet (IPM) motor for a reduction of vibration and Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). The vibration and EMI in permanent magnet motors is generated by cogging torque ripple, radial force and commutation torque ripple. Consequently, in order to improve vibration and EMI, the optimal notches are put on the rotor pole with an arc shape proposed. The variation of vibration frequency due to the cogging torque and radial force of each model is computed by the finite element method (FEM). From the analysis result and experiment, we confirmed the proposed model has remarkably improved the vibration and EMI.

This paper is development of single-phase brushless DC motor with outer rotor for ventilation fan. Cogging torque causes the noise vibration to greatest impact on ventilation fan. Asymmetric notches are applied to tapered-teeth for cogging torque reduction of single-phase brushless DC motor. Initial model is notchless and proposed model is applied 2 asymmetric notches. The proposed method is proved motor characteristic through finite element analysis(FEA). Also, experimental results verify that the proposed model considerably reduces cogging torque and have the good sound quality in ventilation system.

Air gap flux density is obtained strictly from air gap permeance and MMF distribution using the design parameter of BLDCM when the stator slot is considered. Then the theoretical equations representing the cogging torque and BEMF are proposed. The effect of skew is described analytically, and skew effect on air gap permeance and MMF is studied. Consequently we verified analytically that skew of slots and magnets influenced on the reduction of the cogging torque and BEMF ripple, and the shape of BEMF.

Cogging torque is often a principal source of vibration, noise and difficulty of control in permanent-magnet brushless DC motors. Cogging torque can be minimized by sinusoidal air-gap flux density waveform because it is produced by the interaction of the rotor magnetic flux and angular variation in the stator magnetic reluctance. Therefore, this paper will present a design method of magnetization system of bonded isotropic neodynium-iron-boron(Nd-Fe-B) magnets in ring type with sinusoidal air-gap flux density distribution and low manufacturing cost. An analytical technique of magnetization makes use of two-dimensional finite element method(2D FEM) and Preisach model that expresses the hysteresis phenomenon of magnetic materials in order for accurate calculation.

The cogging torque in the small BLDC motors used in the DVD driving system or HDD driving system can cause some serious vibration problem. In this paper, some core shapes that reduce cogging torque are found by using reluctance network method(RNM) for magnetic field analysis and genetic algorithm(GA) for optimization. The outer rotor type BLDC motor for the DVD ROM driving system has been optimized as an sample model.

This paper presents the rotor study on the deal with the shape design with a flux barrier to minimize the cogging torque of Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor(IPMSM). In order to consider the notch effect, the torque characteristics according to the shape of notch is performed and analyzed. From the this results, we found that an optimal location and radius of the notch effectively suppresses the torque pulsation of the IPM drive. The rotor shape design also shows improvement in the average torque
