Permanent Magnet Motor Design Series: Effects of Magnet Segmentation on Permanent Magnet Motor Performance

Segmentation of magnet is a well-known technique to avoid manufacturing issues of permanent magnet motors with large magnets. It is also useful to reduce the eddy current loss inside the magnets. Despite its advantages, this technique may affect the performance of the machine.
Join this webinar to learn how magnet segmentation affects machine performance using EMWorks 2D and multi-configuration feature of SOLIDWORKS.

In this webinar, we will explore

• the effects of magnet segmentation on cogging torque, back EMF, average torque,and torque ripple of the permanent magnet machine. 
• how to use the multi-configuration feature of SOLIDWORKS to simulate and compare different designs in EMWorks 2D.
