This paper proposes an effective assistant model for considering the stator slot-opening effect on air gap flux density distribution in conventional interior-type permanent magnet (IPM) motor. Different from the conventional slot-opening effect analysis in surface-type PM (SPM) motor, a composite effect of slot-opening uniquely existing in IPM motor, which additionally causes enhancement of air gap flux density due to magnet flux path distortion in iron core between the buried PM and rotor surface. This phenomenon is represented by a proposed assistant model, which simply deals with this additional effect by modifying magnetic pole-arc using an effective method. The validity of this proposed analytical model is applied to predict the air gap flux density distribution in an IPM motor model and confirmed by finite element method (FEM).

In this paper, the variation of air-gap field intensity caused by the slot-opening in interior permanent magnet (IPM) motor is investigated, which is for predicting the instantaneous magnetic field more preciously in analytical method further. It is different with the approach of dealing the slot-opening effect on the air-gap field distribution with the "relative permeance" function in surface permanent magnet (SPM) motor. The prediction of the air-gap field in IPM motor is much more complex than SPM motor. In this study, an approximate estimation method is adopted based on analyzing the changing of flux path in both the IPM rotor part and stator part, and in additional an analytical function defined as "relative pole-arc" is built. The finite element method(FEM) is used for confirming the slot-opening effect on the field prediction.

Cogging torque will affect the performance of a permanent magnet Brushless DC Motor (BLDCM), thus the reduction of cogging torque is key for BLDCM optimization. In this paper, the phase shifting of cogging torque for a fractional-slot concentrated winding BLDCM is analyzed using the Maxwell tensor method. Moreover, a 9-slot 10-pole concentrated winding BLDCM driven by ideal square waveform is studied with the finite element method (FEM). An effective method to reduce the cogging torque is obtained by adjusting the slot opening. In addition, the influences of different slot openings on back electromotive force (back-EMF), air gap flux density and flux linkage are investigated and experimentally validated using the prototype BLDCM.

메탄 연료성분이 가득 찬 축소 구획실을 대상으로 개구부에서 유입된 공기와 내부 연료의 혼합특성과 백드래프트 발생특성을 규명하기 위해 대와동모사를 수행하였다. 통상의 문 형태(Door)와 가로 형태의 문이 벽면 상단($Slot_U$), 중단($Slot_M$) 및 하단($Slot_L$)에 있는 구획실의 4가지 개구부 조건들에 대해서 검토를 수행하였다. 점화원이 없을 경우 구획실 내부로 유입되는 산소의 양과 외부로 유출되는 연료의 양은 Door > $Slot_U$ ~ $Slot_M$ > $Slot_L$의 순서로 크지만 $Slot_U$의 경우가 구획실 내부에서 연료와 산소가 전체적으로 가장 잘 혼합되었고 $Slot_L$의 경우에는 연료와 산소가 층을 이루어 혼합이 가장 잘 이루어지지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 구획실 내 산소량과 연료량으로 정의되는 총괄당량비는 구획실에서 발생하는 백드래프트의 강도와 잘 연관되지 않음을 확인하였다. 백드래프트 발생 시의 구획실 내부의 최고 압력은 혼합이 가장 잘 이루어진 $Slot_U$가 가장 높게 나타났으며 $Slot_L$의 경우에는 압력상승이 낮아 백드래프트가 발생하지 않았다. 백드래프트 발생 시 Door와 $Slot_M$ 조건에서의 최고 압력값은 $Slot_U$ 다음 순서로 나타났으며, 각 조건들의 최고압력은 백드래프트 발생순간까지의 총 열발생량과 잘 연관되어 설명될 수 있었다.

This paper presented an improved analytical method for calculating armature-reaction field in the surface-mounted permanent magnet machines accounting for opening slots. The analytical model is divided into two types of subdomains. The current of the armature is centralized in the center of the slots. The field solution of each subdomain is obtained by applying the interface and boundary conditions of the model. Two 30-pole/36-slot prototype machines with different slot-opening width are used for validation. The FE (finite element) results confirm the validity of the analytical results with the proposed model. The investigation shows that the wider the slot-opening width is, the smaller the peak value of radial and circumferential components of flux density, and the analytical armature-reaction field produced by centralized current in the slots is similar with the armature-reaction field produced by distributed current in the slots in the FE.

Statement of problem. Wear as a result of repeated closing/opening cycles may decrease the friction coefficient of screw head, threads, and other mating components and, consequently, resistance to opening gradually decreases. It may cause screw loosening, which is one of the most common failures in implant prosthesis. Purpose. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the changes on the head and thread surface of the abutment screws after repeated closing and opening through the examination of tested screws in SEM(scanning electron microscope). Materials and methods. Five species of abutments were selected (3i-three, Avana-two) respectively by two pieces. The implant fixtures were perpendicularly mounted in liquid unsaturated polyesther(Epovia, Cray Valley Inc.) with dental surveyor. Each abutment was secured to the implant fixture by each abutment screw with recommended torque value using a digital torque controller. The abutment screws were repeatedly tightened and removed 20 times with a digital controller. FESEM (field emission scanning electron microscope, Netherland, Phillips co., model:XL 30 SFEG) was used to observe changes of each part caused by repeatedly closing/opening expeiment. First, the Photomicrographs of pre-test screws provided by each manufacturer were taken. The changes of each screw were investigated after every fifth closing and opening experiment with FESEM. Scaning electron microscope photomicrographs of each screw were taken four times. Results. As the number of closing and opening was increased, the wear or distortion of hexed or squared slot that contacted with the driver tip was more severely progressed. Wear or distortion of hexed slot was more severe than that of squared slot and it was more remarkable in the titanium screw than in the gold screw. All the tested screws showed that the width in the crest of their screw thread decreased gradually as the test was proceeded. Conclusions. Conclusively, we recommend the clinical use of gold screw, a periodic exchanges of abutment screws and avoiding repeated closing/opening unnecessarily. We also suggest a more careful manipulation of the abutment screw and screw-driver and using of abutment screw with an acute-angled slot design rather than an obtuse-angled one. Finally, it is suggested that the new slot design and the surface treatment for enduring wear or distortion should be devised.

This paper investigated application of fractional-slot concentrated-winding axial flux permanent magnet machines for wind turbines. Design criteria of cogging torque and voltage regulation was firstly proposed for this kind of application. Fractional winding has small cogging torque which is highlight for wind turbines, but slot leakage inductance would increase voltage regulation, which is an important performance index of generators. By varying slot opening, cogging torque and slot leakage inductance could be adjusted. In this paper, cogging torque and inductances were calculated by both analytical and finite element methods. Voltage regulation was studied by two-axis model under unity-power-factor load and verified by transient finite element analysis.

The method of stator segmentation is generally taken to enhance the electromagnetic performance of surface-mounted permanent magnet (SPM) machine and reduce its production cost. Based on the model with single slot, the expressions of cogging torque in machine with uniform or non-uniform segmentations are deduced and the optimal combination is given. Moreover, this paper discusses a structured skewing method and put forward a novel stator structure model to reduce the cogging torque in segmented permanent magnet machine. The model can reduce the cogging torque amplitude by shifting a proper angle of slot-opening. The shifting angle formula for analysis can also be suitable for other permanent machine with segmented stator. Finally the results of finite element simulation are given to prove that the method is effective and feasible.

We present the design optimization of the magnetic pole and slot design options that minimize the cogging torque of permanent-magnet (PM) brushless generators for small wind turbine generators. Most small wind-turbines use direct-driven PM generators which have the characteristics of low speed and high efficiency. Small wind-turbines are usually self-starting and require very simple controls. The cogging torque is an inherent characteristic of PM generators, and is mainly caused by the generator's geometry. The inherent the cogging torque can cause problems during turbine start-up and cut-in in order to start softly and to run a power generator even when there is little wind power during turbine start-up. Thus, to improve the operation of small turbines, it is important to minimize the cogging torque. To determine the effects of the cogging torque reductions, we adjust the slot opening width, slot skewing, mounting method of magnets, magnet shape, and the opening and combinations of different numbers of slots per pole. Of these different methods, we combine the methods and optimized the design variables for the most significant design options affecting the cogging torque. Finally, we apply to the target design model and compare FEA simulation and measured results to validate the design optimization.

This paper deals with comparison of magnetic field distribution in LOA with slotless/slot stator. We derived magnetic field solutions in terms of vector potential and cylinderical coordinates. In particular this paper accounts for slotting effect due to stator slot opening by introducing a 2-D relative permeance function. The results of predictions from the analysis are compared with corresponding finite element analysis.
