Review on Research and Development of Magnetic Bearings

This paper reviews the research advancements and development in magnetic bearings. Firstly, from the technical principle, the design differences and application areas of active magnetic bearings, permanent magnetic bearings and hybrid structures are clarified. At the key technology level, focusing on electromagnetic design optimization, control strategy innovation and power-driven energy management, the breakthrough points of multi-physics coupling modeling, vibration suppression and energy efficiency improvement are revealed. Through the analysis of its engineering cases in the fields of high-speed motors, flywheel energy storage, aerospace and so on, the feasibility and economy of the technical scheme are verified. Further, the technical bottlenecks that need to be broken through are pointed out. For the future trend, this paper suggests that integration of interdisciplinary high-precision modeling, intelligent control algorithm and miniaturized integrated design should be deeply integrated to promote the large-scale application of magnetic bearing in frontier fields. This paper provides theoretical reference and engineering practice guidance for the technology iteration and cross-field integration of magnetic bearings.

Abstract

This paper reviews the research advancements and development in magnetic bearings. Firstly, from the technical principle, the design differences and application areas of active magnetic bearings, permanent magnetic bearings and hybrid structures are clarified. At the key technology level, focusing on electromagnetic design optimization, control strategy innovation and power-driven energy management, the breakthrough points of multi-physics coupling modeling, vibration suppression and energy efficiency improvement are revealed. Through the analysis of its engineering cases in the fields of high-speed motors, flywheel energy storage, aerospace and so on, the feasibility and economy of the technical scheme are verified. Further, the technical bottlenecks that need to be broken through are pointed out. For the future trend, this paper suggests that integration of interdisciplinary high-precision modeling, intelligent control algorithm and miniaturized integrated design should be deeply integrated to promote the large-scale application of magnetic bearing in frontier fields. This paper provides theoretical reference and engineering practice guidance for the technology iteration and cross-field integration of magnetic bearings.
