Abstract

Magnetic gears (MGs) have gained increasing attention due to their sound performance in high torque density and low friction loss. Aiming to maximize the torque density, topology design has been a popular issue in recent years. However, studies on the optimization comparisons of a general MG topology pattern are very limited. This paper proposes a Taguchi-method-based optimization method for a general MG topology pattern, which can cover most of the common types of radially magnetized concentric-surface-mounted MGs (RMCSM-MGs). The Taguchi method is introduced to evaluate the influence of each parameter in MGs. Moreover, the parameter value range is re-examined based on the sensitivity analysis results. The genetic algorithm (GA) method is adopted to optimize the topology pattern in the study.
