Abstract:The traditional model of the electromagnetic force and torque does not take the coil corners into account, which is the major cause for the motor fluctuation. To reduce the fluctuation, a more accurate real-time computation model, which considers the influence of the coil corners, is proposed in this paper. Three coordinate systems respectively for the stator, the mover, and the corner are established. The first harmonic of the magnetic flux density distribution of a Halbach magnet array is taken into account in this model. The coil is divided into the straight coil segment and the corner coil segment based on its structure. For the straight coil segment, the traditional Lorenz force method can be used to compute its electromagnetic force and torque, which is a function of the mover position. For the corner coil segment, however, the numerical calculation method can be used to get its respective electromagnetic force and torque. Based on the above separate analysis, an electromagnetic model can be derived, which is suitable for practical application. Compared with the well-known harmonic model, the proposed real-time computation model is found to have less model inaccuracy. Additionally, the real-time ability of the maglev planar motor model and the decoupling computation is validated by NI PXI platform (Austin, TX, USA).
The replacement of steam catapults with electromagnetic ones is becoming an overwhelming trend in aircraft launch systems. Recently, the double-sided linear launcher has attracted more and more attention from researchers. This paper presents the design and analysis of the moving-magnet-type permanentmagnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM). The thrust density is the most important indicator for a powerful motor, so an analytical expression of the thrust-density coefficient is derived from basic electromagnetic force laws. Based on the analytical results, the thrust and the thrust ripple are analyzed using the finite element method in different conditions. In order to modularize easily, the ring windings have been applied in the double-sided PMLSM, and then, the design features and parameter optimization of the windings are discussed. This paper can provide references to select the suitable type of motor for the launch systems and accomplish the fundamental work for the design of a prototype.
Abstract:In the semiconductor industry, positioning accuracy and acceleration are critical parameters. To improve the acceleration speed of a motor, this paper proposes the moving-coil maglev planar motor with a concentric winding structure. The coordinate system has been built for the multiple degrees of freedom movement system. The Lorenz force method has been applied to solve its electromagnetic model. The real-time solving of the generalized inverse matrix of factors can realize the decoupling of the winding current. When the maglev height changes, the electromagnetic force and torque decreases exponentially with the increase of the air gap. To decrease the influence on control system performance by the internal model change and the external disturbance, this paper proposes an improved active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) to design the controller. This new controller overcomes the jitter phenomenon due to the turning point for the traditional ADRC, thus it is more suitable for the maglev control system. The comparison between ADRC and the improved ADRC has been conducted, the result of which shows the improved ADRC has greater robustness.
