Abstract: This paper presents a gearless wheel motor drive system specifically designed for fuel cell electric and hybrid electric vehicle propulsion application. The system includes a liquid-cooled axial flux permanent-magnet machine designed to meet the direct-drive requirements. The machine design implements techniques to increase the machine inductance in order to improve machine constant power range and high-speed efficiency. The implemented technique reduces machine spin loss to further improve efficiency. The machine design also optimizes the placement of magnets in the rotor to reduce cogging and ripple torque. An original cooling system arrangement based on the use of high thermal conductivity epoxy joining machine stator and liquid-cooled aluminum casing allows the very effective removal of machine power loss. Design details and experimental results are presented
TL;DR: In this paper, a linear permanent magnet synchronous machine is compared to the transverse flux machine in a basic design study for a wave energy converter, and the latter machine is identified as offering the best potential.
Abstract: Wave power devices traditionally use conventional rotary electrical machines for power conversion. However hydraulic systems or air turbines are required to convert the low reciprocating motion of the wave device to rotation at 1500 rpm. The concept of a direct drive system is introduced, in which a reciprocating electrical machine is driven at the same speed as the device. A linear permanent magnet synchronous machine is compared to the transverse flux machine in a basic design study for this application. The latter machine is identified as offering the best potential. Electromagnetic and electric circuit models are developed to investigate the performance of the transverse flux machine in a wave energy converter. Measures are suggested to optimise the performance of the machine.
TL;DR: In this article, the rotor, copper, and core losses of the machine as well as the inverter losses, taking the modulation type into account, were derived by considering two typical high-speed permanent magnet synchronous motor topologies driven by PAM and PWM converters.
Abstract: For variable-speed drives, the interaction of the machine and the converter is becoming increasingly important, especially for high-speed applications, mainly due to the effect of the converter modulation on the machine losses. The allocation of the losses to different components of the drive system needs to be known in order to choose the ideal machine and modulation combination. In this paper, individual models are introduced for calculating the rotor, copper, and core losses of the machine as well as the inverter losses, taking the modulation type into account. These models are developed by considering two typical high-speed permanent-magnet synchronous motor topologies (slotted and slotless machines) driven by pulse-amplitude modulation (PAM) and pulsewidth modulation (PWM) converters. The models are applied to two off-the-shelf machines and a converter operating with either PAM or PWM. The test bench used to experimentally verify the models is also described, and the model results are compared to the measurements. The results show that PAM produces a higher overall efficiency for the high-speed machines considered in this paper. However, PWM can be used to move the losses from the rotor to the converter at the expense of decreasing the overall drive efficiency. The possible benefits of these results are discussed.
TL;DR: In this article, a method focused on compensation of machine's thermal deformation in spindle axis direction based on decomposition analysis is presented, where the machine decomposition is performed with the help of specially developed measuring frame, which can measure deformation of machine column, headstock, spindle and tool simultaneously.
Abstract: One of the fundamental areas in high precision cutting is represented by the machine's thermal state monitoring. Understanding of this state gives significant information about the overall machine condition such as proper performance of cooling system as well as software compensation of machine's thermal deformation during manufacturing. This paper presents a method focused on compensation of machine's thermal deformation in spindle axis direction based on decomposition analysis. The machine decomposition is performed with the help of specially developed measuring frame, which is able to measure deformation of machine column, headstock, spindle and tool simultaneously. Compensation is than calculated as a sum of multinomial regression equations using temperature measurement. New placements of temperature measurement like spindle cooling liquid or workspace are used to improve the accuracy of this calculation. Decomposition process allows describing each machine part's thermal dynamic more precisely than the usual deformation curve usually used one deformation curve for the complete machine. The residual thermal deformation of the machine is considerably reduced with this cheap and effective strategy. The advantage is also in the simplicity of presented method which is clear and can be used also on older machines with slower control systems without strong computing power.
