A Reduction Method of Cogging Torque for Magnetic Gears
M. K. Rashid , A. M. Mohammed
Abstract:   (1548 Views)
Nowadays, magnetic gears (MGs) have become an alternative choice for mechanical gears because of their low maintenance, improved durability, indirect contact between inner and outer rotors, no lubrication, and high efficiency. Generally, although these advantages, MGs suffer from inherent issues, mainly the cogging torque. Therefore, cogging torque mitigation has become an active research area. This paper proposed a new cogging torque mitigation approach based on the radial slit of the ferromagnetic pole pieces of MGs. In this method, different numbers and positions of slits are applied. The best results are gained through an even number of slits which shows promising results of cogging torque mitigation on the inner rotor with a small mitigation in the mean torque on both rotors. This work is done by using Simcenter and MATLAB software packages. The inner rotor’s cogging torque has mitigated to 81.9 %, while the outer rotor’s cogging torque is increased only by 2.75 %.
