Abstract:A novel mechanical flux-adjusting permanent magnet linear eddy current brake with high performance and its nonlinear analytical model are proposed. The innovative point lies in attaching an additional mechanical magnetic adjuster directly above the interior permanent magnet bar, which can achieve flexible adjustment of the air-gap flux and improve the generation capacity of the braking force and its regulation range. Considering the importance of the analytic model in practical design, the average air-gap flux… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
