This paper proposes a robust H∞ controller based on Multi-objective genetic algorithms (MOGAs) to control the active magnetic bearings (AMBs) with application to superfluid helium cryogenic centrifugal compressor (CCC). Basic weighting function formulas with seven parameters in all are suggested for H∞ controller, whose physical connections with system performance are clearly explained. Weighting...
Currently, there is significant attention being paid to the development of high-speed machines including motors and generators. In particular, permanent magnet machines are gaining more traction due to their outstanding efficiency, high power density, small size, low weight, simple mechanical construction, easy maintenance and good reliability. The higher the motor speed, the smaller the electric...
Permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM) have high torque density, efficiency, power factor and so on compared with other type of machines. PMSMs can be separated into traditional well-known distributed wounded (DW) machines and fractional slot concentrated winding (FSCW) machines [1]. FSCW machines own low cogging torque, compact structure, high power density, and convenient fabrication, etc...
A significant advantage of spoke-type interior permanent magnet (IPM) machines is the flux concentration effect of adjacent PMs, which enhances the air-gap flux density and the output capability. However, the leakage flux around the rotor inner circumference is difficult to reduce [1]-[2]. In order to ease the manufacturing process, a spoke-type IPM rotor with alternate airspace-barriers is proposed...
As wind turbines increase their power rating, the size and mass grows as well. The higher reliability is demanded in order to minimize the maintenance. Permanent magnet direct drive (PMDD) synchronous generators are a good solution since they omit the gearbox. While the large generator mass has been also a key difficult problem limiting the practical use of PMDD generator, which makes them difficult...
