Abstract
In the electromagnetic design process of the outer rotor of a low-speed permanent magnet motor (LSPMM), due to the different heat dissipation conditions of the stator core and the stator winding, the selection of different magnetic loads and stator current densities will produce different temperature distributions even under the same efficiency. In the existing literature, the effects of magnetic load and current density on temperature distribution are rarely studied, which makes it difficult for designers to select optimal electromagnetic parameters to achieve better temperature performance. Therefore, in this paper, the comparison of temperature characteristics considering magnetic load and current density is conducted based on an outer rotor LSPMM. Firstly, the structure and parameters of an initial scheme of a 200 kW 56 rpm motor is determined, and the electromagnetic and temperature characteristics of the initial scheme are obtained through two-dimensional finite element analysis (2D-FEA) using Ansys Maxwell and Motor-CAD software. Secondly, by comparing the temperature and loss characteristics under different magnetic loads and different current densities, the effect of magnetic load on temperature and the effect of current density on temperature are obtained. Furthermore, four different schemes are proposed, and the loss and temperature characteristics of the four schemes under rated load are also compared to obtain the comprehensive effects of magnetic load and current density on temperature. Next, a final scheme is determined based on the above analysis, and the temperature characteristics of the final scheme and the initial scheme are compared to verify the validity of the conclusions. Finally, a prototype is built and tested to verify the feasibility of the conclusions. For LSPMM design, the results and several measurements provided in this paper can help researchers to choose a better optimization scheme to achieve good temperature performance.
