Transmission Performance of Halbach Array Cylindrical Permanent Magnet Governor

A novel cylinder permanent magnet governor (CPMG) with Halbach segmentation is proposed in this paper. In order to improve the transmission performance of the CPMG, different permanent magnet (PM) arrangement methods are adopted. To achieve a fair comparison result, all the PMs are of the same size. The main magnetic fluxes are considered to obtain a comprehensive equivalent magnetic circuit model of the CPMG with Halbach array and analytical output torque that is calculated. The analytical method of transmitted torque for CPMG is then presented. Additionally, the effect of the average output torque of CPMG under parameters of the thickness of the copper rings, the slip rate and the effective coupling of the copper rings are investigated. Finally, the prototype platform is ready for testing on the field. The results were consistent with the results of the simulation, and the error was kept within the range of 5%. This research can provide a theoretical and practical reference for the optimal design of the transmission characteristic of CPMG.
