Description
Fundamental principles of magnetics, electro-magnetics, and magnetic materials as applied to design and
operation of electro-mechanical devices. Applied magnetic theory: magnetic motive force, permeance, flux,
intensity, leakage. Properties of magnets and magnetic materials. Principles of operation of basic electromechanical devices and their drivers. Design of actuators and motors to meet force, torque, back EMF, and
capacity requirements. Type and dimensional synthesis and material specification for custom applications of
linear and rotary actuators, stepper motors, and DC brushless motors. Specification of poles, phases, winding
patterns, and impedance.
Day 1:
Introduction. Review of fundamental magnetics theory.
Maxwell's Equations: Faraday's Law, Ampere's Law, Gauss' Law.
Lumped parameter models. MMF. Reluctance and permeance.
Flux linkages, speedance, inductance.
Energy and co-energy conversion. Maxwell's stress tensor. Forces and torques.
Properties of permanent magnets. Magnetizing process.
Day 2:
Simple reluctance devices.
Operation and control of voice coil actuators.
Brushless motors. Torque generation, timing, and commutation
Delta and Y windings
Motor control using switched DC. H-bridge controllers.
Use of HED's and FET's.
Day 3:
Losses and efficiency. Thermal considerations.
Insulation ratings. UL standards
Permanent magnet and VR stepper motors, pull-in and pull-out torque.
Magnetic circuit equivalents and permeance based calculation of torque.
Hybrid stepper motors. Magnetic circuit equivalents.
