In this paper, the goal of optimization design is efficiency increase and vibration optimization. For this purpose, shape optimization design was performed using Quasi-Newton method, which is one of optimization techniques, and it was verified through finite element analysis In addition, modal analysis of the stator was performed to estimate the natural frequency. through the vibration experiment, the vibration was verified for cogging torque and RMF analysis. Finally, optimal and basic models were compared and analyzed for efficeincy characteristics.

This paper has done a three-dimensional FEM analysis of the PM claw pole stepping motor. As magnetization happens in the z-axis, which does not have a constant value, three-dimensional FEM analysis is necessary for characteristic analysis of PM claw pole stepping motors. Because it is a type of permanent magnet motor, the PM claw pole stepping motor naturally has a detent torque. This torque is known to show negative effects on motor performance. To improve motor performance, reducing the detent torque is very important during the motor design. This paper applied DOE for optimization of stator pole design of the motor. Also, we compared motor performance by applying a different type of rotor shape, dividing the permanent magnet. To verify the simulation results, an experiment was done.

This paper deals with a Double-type Transverse Flux Linear Motor which can be applied to high power system. This type can reduce overall system volume because it has a double flux path, and less number of phases and turns comparing with prototype for one phase. This machine is based on permanent magnet excitation, and the pole shape is designed to reduce attraction force between stator and mover poles. In the paper, the basic configuration of double type is introduced first, and the principle of movement is explained. After performing the characteristic analysis by 3-dimensional equivalent magnetic circuit network, the results are discussed.

This paper considers the design and performance evaluation of interior permanent magnet synchronous motors (IPMSMs). The initial design such as the sizing and shape design of the stator and rotor is performed for a given load condition. In particular, the equivalent magnetic circuit (EMC) is employed both to design the mechanical parameters of the rotor while considering nonlinear magnetic saturation effect and to analyze the magnetic characteristics of the air-gap of the motor. The designed motor is manufactured and tested to confirm the validity of the design processes and simulated results.

A disk-type 3-DOF actuator which has new principle and very simple structure is proposed. Also it utilizes the relation of bias and control fluxes produced by permanent magnets and coils, respectively, like other conventional electromagnetic actuators, but its main feature is that both the coils and permanent magnets are fixed in the stator, which makes it easy to design the shape of moving part. Operating principle is that a moving disk is driven by reaction force of Lorentz force acting on the fixed equivalent coil. Simple analytic approach and FEM analysis are performed to determine the design parameters so as to increase the driving force and distance. And some experimental results show the feasibility of the proposed actuator.

This paper introduces a Lorentz force type four-pole self-bearing motor, where the new pole arrangement of a stator is intended to function both as a synchronous PM motor and as a magnetic bearing. The Lorentz force type has some good points such as linearity of control force, freedom from flux saturation, and high efficiency unlike conventional self-bearing motors. Mathematical expressions of torque and radial force are derived to show that they can be separately controlled regardless of rotational speed and time. To verify the proposed theory, a prototype is made, where a ring-shape outer is actively controlled in two radial directions while the other motions are passively stable supposing the radial stability. Through some experiments, it is shown that the proposed scheme can provide high capability and feasibility for a small high-speed self-bearing motor.

In this paper, rotor design modification of a novel proposed machine termed the Axial Flux Doubly Fed Reluctance Machine (AF-BDFRM) is studied. The main potential advantage of AF-BDFRM is that it has larger torque and power density compared to radial flux-BDFRM. However, with the general rotor pole shape, this machine output back EMF has high THD % and high cogging torque. This paper studies the rotor design modification in the proposed AF-BDFRM to reduce the THD % in inducedd back EMF and cogging torque. Also the transient 3D finite element analysis (FEA) optimization of initial design is presented.

오프 그리드 형태의 소형풍력발전기는 도심지 또는 사람이 거주하는 지역에 설치되므로 소음, 진동, 안전성 등에 많은 문제가 야기되고 있다. 풍력발전기 내부적으로 소음 및 진동에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요소는 코깅토크로 발전기 회전자가 회전할 때 고정자 슬롯과 회전자 영구자석 사이 공극 릴럭턴스 변화에 의해 발생한다. 또한, 코깅토크는 풍력발전기의 초기 기동 풍속에 영향을 미치며, 토크리플 증가의 원인이 되어 코깅토크 저감 설계는 소형풍력발전기 설계에서 필수적으로 이루어져야 한다. 본 논문에서는 실험계획법을 진행하여 이중고정자 발전기의 영구자석 형상 최적화 설계를 통해 코깅토크를 저감 설계를 실시하였으며, 추가적으로 발전기 출력 전압 고조파 발생을 저감시켰다.

In this paper, we investigate the optimization design for a spoke type motor with the characteristics of high torque density and high-efficiency. This motor has a high output per unit volume. In order to reduce noise and vibration caused by a high cogging torque, optimization design of the rotor and stator have been conducted using both Response surface method (RSM) and Finite elements method (FEM). In this paper, we show the potential for this motor to efficiently replace existing interior permanent magnet synchronous motors (IPMSM) in a wide range of industries.

Single-phase, brushless DC (BLDC) motors have unequal air-gaps to eliminate the dead-point where the developed torque is zero. Unfortunately, these unequal air-gaps can deteriorate the motor characteristics in the cogging torque. This paper proposes a novel design for a single-phase BLDC motor with an asymmetric notch to solve this problem. In the design method, the asymmetric notches were placed on the stator pole face, which affects the change in permanent magnet shape or the residual flux density of the permanent magnet. Parametric analysis was performed to determine the optimal size and position of the asymmetric notch to reduce the cogging torque. Finite element analysis (FEA) was used to calculate the cogging torque. A more than 28% lower cogging torque compared to the initial model with no notch was achieved.
