Pohang Wind Energy Research Center (PoWER-C) is developing a 3 MW Radial Flux Permanent Magnet (RFPM) Synchronous Generator for offshore Wind Energy Converter (WEC). The blade rotor rpm is 15.7 and the gear ratio is set to be 92.93. The nominal generator rpm at the rated load is about 1459. Baseline design with surface mounted PM magnets are completed. However, there is some concern about the excessive eddy current heating in the magnets. To alleviate this problem, another design with embedded magnet is going on. With embedded magnets, the generator length should be increased to compensate the increased flux leakage. But the field fluctuation in the magnets due to the slots are greatly reduced. This means less eddy currents and lower magnet operating temperature. In this report, engineering efforts for embedded rotor is presented.

In a concentric magnetic gear, which replaces the teeth of a mechanical gear with a permanent magnet, the polar ratio of the magnet that determines the reduction ratio affects the behavior of the magnetic gear dramatically. This study analyzed the density of transmission torque, the efficiency of torque considering the solid loss, and the torque quality, including the cogging characteristics using finite element analysis. When the pole number on the driving side was changed from two to five, it was confirmed that there was an optimal pole ratio, in which the transmission torque was maximized. Because eddy current generation density is proportional to the magnetic field, the transmission efficiency also shows a similar tendency to the transmission torque density, and the efficiency is more than 95% at a low gear ratio. The cogging characteristics due to the interaction of the permanent magnets with the limited number of poles are inversely proportional to the least common multiple between the number of magnets on the drive side and the number of modulator teeth. A test model was built for the transmission torque evaluation.

This paper introduces a study on an electromagnet magnetic gear designed for gear ratio conversion. In comparison to magnetic gears using permanent magnets, this electromagnet magnetic gear exhibits lower torque density, highlighting the need for torque density improvement. To address this, the research focuses on enhancing torque density by examining the consistent orientation of each rotor's magnetization during gear ratio conversion and attaching permanent magnets accordingly. However, an issue arises due to the uneven magnetic flux density caused by the non-uniform attachment of permanent magnets, leading to an increase in torque ripple. Therefore, building upon previous studies aimed at reducing torque ripple in electromagnet magnetic gears, this research explores the optimal methods, such as pole piece bridges and fillet configurations, to mitigate torque ripple even during gear ratio conversion.

This paper introduces a 3MW embedded Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator(PMSG) for wind turbine. The generator features 313mm stator inner radius and 974mm stator length. The blade rotor angular velocity is 15.7 rpm and the gear ratio is set to be 92.93. The nominal generator rpm at rated load is about 1459. The number of poles is six and embedded in the generator rotor. Embedded permanent magnet excitation shows higher reliability, and better efficiency. Using the finite element method, electromagnetic and thermal results are simulated by ANSYS and the results are summarized in this report.

Pohang Wind Energy Research Center (PoWER-C) is developing a 3 MW Radial Flux Permanent Magnet (RFPM) Synchronous Generator for offshore Wind Energy Converter (WEC). The rotor rpm is 15.7 and the gear ratio is set to be 92.93. The nominal generator rpm at the rated load is about 1459. To reduce the switching loss in the power electronics, the maximum frequency is limited to 100 Hz. This requirement limits the number of pole to six or eight. Permanent magnet excitation is assumed for higher energy yield and higher efficiency. In this report, the requirements and the first efforts for the physics design are described.

In the paper, the permanent magnet synchronous generator of 1.5[MW] output power which is driven directly without gear system is designed by conventional magnetic equivalent circuit method and analyzed by finite element method. We analyzed the characteristics of generator like no load, rated load, short circuit condition and demagnetization of permanent magnet in order to verify the design results by magnetic circuit method. The last, the analysis results of two kinds of rotor types are compared with each other. Especially the THD(total harmonic distortion) of output voltage is examined for the comparison.

Mechanical gears driven by direct contact have problems including noise, vibration and heat. In order to, solve these problems, magnetic gears having a non-contact magnetic coupling have been proposed. Through various studies on magnetic gears, we found that losses are changed when the number of magnetic poles varies in the same gear ratio. For this reason, research team expect the iron loss of the magnetic gear and the Eddy current loss of the permanent magnet will have a certain tendency depending on the number of poles. This paper identified the magnetic gear's loss tendency according to the number of poles, and laid the basis for efficiency improvement design.

Magnetic gears have the same characteristics as mechanical gears, and each rotor does not come in contact, which is advantageous over mechanical gears in friction noise, heat generation, and maintenance. In addition, when the rotor using the coil-winding is applied, it is possible to control the output of the gear as well as to cut off its own drive in the emergency situation and to change its gear ratio. So the application of the magnetic gear is infinite. However, when the coil-winding rotor is used, cogging torque due to the attraction force between the permanent magnet and the iron core appears, which leads to an increase in the torque ripple component causing the rotor vibration. Therefore, in this paper, various shapes of the coil-winding rotor are analyzed to reduce the torque ripple of the rotor, and the optimum shape for reducing the torque ripple of the magnetic gear is presented.
