Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Permanent magnet machines are widely used in different applications, and they are the preferred topologies in applications such as automotive, aerospace, and wind energy. They offer the benefits of high torque, simple structure, reliable operation, small size, light weight, low loss, high efficiency, and the appearance and size of the motor can be flexible and changeable. With the development of electronic technology and control technology, permanent magnet machines will develop and be perfected in the direction of high efficiency and energy saving, mechatronics, high performance, special motors, and light weight.

This Special Issue focuses on recent trends in permanent magnet machines, including design, modeling, optimization, and control.

Topics of interest for publication include but are not limited to:

  1. Modeling, analysis, and design for PM machines;
  2. Advanced control algorithms;
  3. Innovative design and analysis of IPM and SPM;
  4. Analysis, design, and control of new FSPM;
  5. New structure and topology for PM machines;
  6. Fault diagnosis and fault tolerance in PM machines.

Over the past few decades, flux-switching permanent magnet (FSPM) machines have gained more attention. A novel flux-switching permanent magnet linear machine with a partitioned stator (FSPMLM-PS), which has the advantages of high thrust force density and high cost efficiency for short-stroke applications, is presented and analyzed in this article. Firstly, the twelve mover slots and seven stator poles (12s/7p) structure of FSPMLM-PS is introduced, and the fundamental principle of operation is investigated. The partitioned stator helps with the reduction in iron losses and the overall cost of the proposed FSPMLM-PS. One of the frequent issues in linear machines is the end effect, which is compensated for by setting assistant teeth at both ends of the mover. The proposed machine’s main design specifications are globally optimized through a multiobjective genetic optimization algorithm using JMAG software ver. 16.1, although the volumes of the PM and the magnetic and electric loadings are kept the same. The peak-to-peak flux linkage, thrust force, thrust ripples, and detent force are improved by 26.98%, 27.98%, 22.03%, and 68.33%, respectively, after optimization. The comparison results show that the proposed FSPMLM-PS is preferable to the conventional FSPMLM given in the literature. Under the same PM volume, the proposed machine provides 27.95% higher thrust force density. Full article
