“…The analysis of this software is based on the so-called finite-element method (FEM). 30 This transducer was analyzed by transient analysis method in JMAG-Designer software environment. In this analysis, magnetostriction and FEM coil conditions were applied to a nickel core containing a copper coil, respectively.…”

Due to high piezomagnetic coefficient of the synthetic giant magnetostrictive materials, they are able to provide good enough force and displacements for industrial applications. Some natural materials such as nickel also exhibit magnetostrictive properties, but with poor performance, which might be improved by some electromagnetic manipulations. In this study, the effect of different coil parameters such as current, frequency, the number of coil turn, and the core lamination factor in different directions ([X or Y] and Z axes), on the performance of a nickel-core magnetostrictive transducer is investigated. Since the fluctuation of magnetostrictive force in the longitudinal direction of core (along the Z-axis) is an important parameter for generating the ultrasonic waves, the results showed that this force fluctuation decreases with increasing frequency. By increasing the lamination factor in the X direction, the fluctuation of magnetostrictive force along the Z-axis remains constant. However, the ultrasonic performance of the magnetostrictive transducer may be optimized by proper selection of lamination factor along the X-axis. The relationships between the results were investigated in more detail and presented as linear equations. Based on these equations, it was concluded that current and turn number of coil has the greatest positive impact on the magnetostrictive performance of the transducer, while increasing the frequency and lamination factor have a weakening effect.

“…For modeling three-phase AC machines including motors or generators, a variety of methods using software simulation tools, such as MATLAB/Simulink, PSIM, and PSPICE, have been studied and can be divided into two kinds of classification [23,24]. One type is mathematic equation based model [25,26] and the other one is classified as circuit component based model [27][28][29]. The problem of the equation-based model is that it cannot directly be coupled with external circuit such as the PWM inverter for integrated performance evaluation.…”

This paper presents the phase-variable modeling of a permanent magnet-assisted claw-pole alternator in PSIM simulation software tool with the performance compared with a claw-pole alternator model, which is a special case of the permanent magnet-assisted claw-pole alternator model with the rotor permanent-magnet flux constant setting equal to zero. The constructed model can be simulated as a real alternator directly connected to a diode-bridge rectifier or switch-mode rectifier circuit for the integrated power application system simulation analysis. The proposed model contains two features, one of which is that the stator and rotor windings are circuit-based. The other one feature is that the mechanical torque input is based on a mathematical function. In this model, the rotor position-dependent variable inductor is replaced by a separate voltage source according to the voltage source absorption theorem. The simulation shows that the proposed model has faster torque step response and higher power efficiency than the claw-pole alternator model. The proposed model can be employed to the application of the control design and simulation study of voltage regulation in automobiles. The simulation results with 15-V command and the load sudden change verify the correction of the proposed model.

“…In order to enhance the simulation fidelity, it is essential to use a model of SynRel drive that is as detailed as possible. In this case, a co-simulation can be used, which allows us to integrate the most suitable simulation tool for each part of the model in a multi-domain analysis [12]. The multi-domain simulation model consists of the finite element model (FEM) model of the electric motor, the power electronics inverter, and the control unit [13,14].…”

To improve the design of electric drives and to better predict the system performance, numerical simulation has been widely employed. Whereas in the majority of the approaches, the machines and the power electronics are designed and simulated separately, to improve the fidelity, a co-simulation should be performed. This paper presents a complete coupled co-simulation model of synchronous reluctance machine (SynRel) drive, which includes the finite element model of the SynRel, the power electronics inverter, the control system, and application examples. The model of SynRel is based on a finite element model (FEM) using Simcenter MagNet. The power electronics inverter is built using PLECS Blockset, and the drive control model is built in Simulink environment, which allows for coupling between MagNet and PLECS. The proposed simulation model provides high accuracy thanks to the complete FEA-based model fed by actual inverter voltage. The comparison of the simulation results with experimental measurements shows good correspondence.
