APPLICATION OF PHASE CURRENT LOOPS FOR MODELING THE HARMONIC MAGNETIC FIELD OF A MAGNETOELECTRIC GENERATOR

The model of electromagnetic field of a magnetoelectric generator with a smooth cylindrical rotor and surface-mounted permanent magnets is investigated. Permanent magnets are interpreted using complex amplitudes of a system of current loops with harmonic currents. The aim of the study is to develop a mathematical model for calculating the harmonic magnetic field of a magnetoelectric generator with permanent magnets by replacing the permanent magnets with phase current loops with complex current amplitudes and to investigate its adequacy. Three variations of model representation of permanent magnets placed on the surface of the magnetic core are utilized. Depending on the model representation of permanent magnets, two dynamic generator models and two harmonic models have been developed. For each model, equations of the electromagnetic field are written. An example of a three-phase scheme of current loops of the rotor for modeling the electromagnetic field of the magnetoelectric generator with complex amplitudes of currents is presented. Comparison of the magnetic field induction, current, voltage, and electromagnetic torque is performed with three variations of magnet width relative to the pole pitch.
