Electromechanical integrated magnetic gear

This study proposes a new type of magnetic gear, namely, the electromechanical integrated magnetic gear, that integrates the traditional field-modulated magnetic gear, drive, and control. The topology and operating principle of the electromechanical integrated magnetic gear are described in detail in this article, and the constraints of parameter design and speed ratio of electromechanical integrated magnetic gear are presented. Moreover, magnetic field distribution is analyzed with the finite element method. Subsequently, the harmonics of the magnetic field and the electromagnetic torque are calculated. The static torques on all the components are exhibited by finite element method and torque test. The effects of the design parameters on the torques and the torque densities are discussed, and the results show that electromechanical integrated magnetic gear has a high speed ratio and can generate a high torque at low speed. The maximum torques are affected by air-gap thickness and other parameters.
