Ideal electro-magnetic energy conversion

Information

The electro-magnetic energy conversion is given by Ampere's law and Faraday's law respectively:

    V_m = i * N
    N * dΦ/dt = -v

V_m is the magnetomotive force that is supplied to the connected magnetic circuit, Φ is the magnetic flux through the associated branch of this magnetic circuit. The negative sign of the induced voltage v is due to Lenz's law.

The flux linkage Ψ and the static inductance L_stat = |Ψ/i| are calculated for information only. Note that L_stat is set to |Ψ/eps| if |i| < eps (= 100*Modelica.Constants.eps).

Modelica.Magnetic.FluxTubes.Basic.LeakageWithCoefficient Modelica.Magnetic.FluxTubes.Basic.LeakageWithCoefficient

Leakage reluctance with respect to the reluctance of a useful flux path (not for dynamic simulation of actuators)

Information

Differently from the flux tube elements of package Shapes.Leakage that are calculated from their geometry, this leakage reluctance is calculated with reference to the total reluctance of a useful flux path. Please refer to the Parameters section for an illustration of the resulting magnetic network. Exploiting Kirchhoff's generalized current law, the leakage reluctance is calculated by means of a coupling coefficient c_usefulFlux.

Attention:

This element must not be used for dynamic simulation of electro-magneto-mechanical actuators, where the shape of at least one flux tube element with reluctance force generation in the useful flux path changes with armature motion (e.g., air gap). This change results in a non-zero derivative dG_m/dx of those elements permeance G_m with respect to armature position x, which in turn will lead to a non-zero derivative of the leakage permeance with respect to armature position. This would generate a reluctance force in the leakage element that is not accounted for properly. Shapes.Force.LeakageAroundPoles provides a simple leakage reluctance with force generation.

Extends from FluxTubes.Interfaces.PartialLeakage (Base class for leakage flux tubes with position-independent permeance and hence no force generation; mu_r=1).

Modelica.Magnetic.FluxTubes.Basic.EddyCurrent Modelica.Magnetic.FluxTubes.Basic.EddyCurrent

For modelling of eddy current in a conductive magnetic flux tube

Information

Eddy currents are induced in a conductive magnetic flux tube when the flux changes with time. This causes a magnetic voltage drop in addition to the voltage drop that is due to the reluctance of this flux tube. The eddy current component can be thought of as a short-circuited secondary winding of a transformer with only one turn. Its resistance is calculated from the geometry and resistivity of the eddy current path.

Partitioning of a solid conductive cylinder or prism into several hollow cylinders or separate nested prisms and modelling of each of these flux tubes connected in parallel with a series connection of a reluctance element and an eddy current component can model the delayed buildup of the magnetic field in the complete flux tube from the outer to the inner sections. Please refer to [Ka08] for an illustration.
