Abstract

The air gap magnetic field of a magnetic coupling plays a crucial role in the examination of its static torque and eddy current losses. Precise characterization of the air gap magnetic field is essential for ensuring the accuracy of performance assessments of the magnetic coupling. This study focuses on the cylindrical magnetic coupling as the subject of investigation, employing mathematical analysis and finite element methods to evaluate and quantify the magnetic field properties. The study establishes a mathematical model of the magnetic field of a magnetic coupling based on electromagnetic field principles and the superposition theorem. An analytical formula for the magnetic flux density distribution of the air-gap magnetic field is derived. Subsequently, a three-dimensional magnetic field finite element model is created using the finite element method to numerically calculate the air gap magnetic field and validate the analytical formula. The research also explores the periodic distribution characteristics of the magnetic field in the air gap, analyzing axial differences in magnetic flux density value and direction distribution influenced by end effects.
