- Abstract
- Permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSGs) with high output density per unit volume are becoming widespread in wind-power generation systems. Among them, spoke-type PMSGs are more challenging to magnetize than other PMSGs, owing to their structural characteristics. Magnetization performance is critical because it is directly related to the demagnetization and mass productivity of permanent magnets, and load performance is reduced when non-magnetization occurs due to the low magnetization performance. Additionally, the starting performance is crucial in wind turbines and is influenced by the cogging torque of the PMSG. This is because starting a wind turbine with a large cogging torque is more challenging. Therefore, this study proposes a spoke-type PMSG rotor shape design for low capacity wind turbines that considers magnetization and cogging torques. We analyzed the principle of magnetization and the factors influencing magnetization performance, and designed a rotor shape with improved magnetization performance. Additionally, we applied an asymmetric rotor barrier structure to reduce the cogging torque and analyze the performance of the final model using finite element analysis. We analyzed the temperature saturation during the operation of the final model using a thermal network method and validated the irreversible demagnetization accordingly.
