THE TASKS Overview of present PMG s Review of patent Design of patented PMG Magnetic analysis Conduction of experiments Data analysis Plot of characteristics Calculation of parameters Conclusion 3
Overview of Present PMGs Radial-flux permanent magnet generator with Internal Rotor : Advantages : high torque/power capability, good heat conduction, cooling properties, a high efficiency and a power/weight ratio. Disadvantage: the magnets have to be implanted carefully so that the rotor does not fly apart. Applications: low and medium power, wind turbine, high power. Alxion : from 282.58 to 345.56 W/Kg at a rated speed of 1500 rpm. MOOG : from 181.33 to 213.75 W/Kg at a rated speed of 1200 rpm. As example, here is characteristics taken from the Alxion and MOOG catalogues 4
Overview of Present PMGs Radial-flux permanent magnet generator with External Rotor: Advantages: very efficient, low-cost, easy to manufacture. Applications: hard disk drives, small computer ventilation fans, some blowers, low-power applications such as wind generator. 5
Overview of Present PMGs Axial flux permanent magnet generator : The gravimetric power density of this prototype at a rated speed of 840 rpm is 117.65 W/Kg Advantages: can be designed to have a higher power/weight ratio resulting of the less core material and a higher efficiency Applications : low and medium power Such as wind turbine high power. 6

Conclusions & Recommendations 18
Conclusions & Recommendations Preliminary measured compensation of reactance is almost twice as each part of generator would separately have. Future plan for generator: Connect different types of loads for more accurate and rich analysis; Test different coil configurations; Test generator parts separately to discover the effect and describe the difference; Make a Simulink MATLAB model; Describe in equations and theory. Preliminary parameters can be modeled by a special simulation program EMS add-on for SolidWorks. 19
