Numerous research papers have reported that the PMLG has several distinct advantages including high efficiency, i.e., >90%, small air gap, and a small size. In addition, PMLG is environmentally friendly as it emits no CO2 and consumes no fossil fuel. However, there are several challenges and hurdles that must be overcome including demagnetization of the permanent magnets due to temperature rise, and high cogging force which can produce noise and vibration.
Based on our experience simulating PMLG using the popular EMWorks’ virtual prototyping software EMS, we will offer you several design tips and recommendations, in this webinar.
