This research presents a topology optimization to minimize eddy current loss maintaining mechanical robustness of structure part in electrical machines A design sensitivity equation for the topology optimization is derived by employing the discrete system equations combined with the adjoint variable method. As a numerical example, frame design of a C-core actuator is performed by the proposed method.

The objective of this paper is to suggest a design topology of permanent magnet synchronous generator with 2,000kW capacities for wind turbine. The suggested topology is to provide 3 split magnet PMSG instead of single magnet, and performed an analysis of eddy current loss and iron loss for suggested type using ansoft maxwell commercial program. The simulation results of suggested magnet type show there duction of eddy current loss as 13.87kW with loadless conditions and23.48kW with rated conditions, but iron loss for rotor yoke show the in creasing trend as2.2kW with loadless conditions and 0.2kW with rated conditions. The suggested 3 split maget type is to identified as more useful for 2,000kW PMSG.
