Evaluation of the magnetization direction effects on ferrite PM brushless fractional machines

Permanent magnets are frequently adopted in small brushless machines for automotive applications. Normally anisotropic ferrites, but some research on bonded magnets is being carried on. Several types of magnetization can be proposed, involving different levels of complexity in the magnetization process. In the paper a comparison between parallel and radial magnetization is described, taking into account on one side the major complexity of the radial process and on the other the small power derating of the paralle

PM fractional machines adopting bonded magnets: effect of different magnetizations on the energetic performance

The adoption of Permanent Magnets in small brushless machines for automotive applications is becoming frequent. Some research on bonded magnets is being carried on to substitute the ferrites. In the paper the parallel and radial magnetizations are considered: the different process complexity levels are analyzed and the effects on the iron losses and the energetic performances are evaluated by means of a simulation analysis and its experimental validatio
