Presents applied theory and advanced simulation techniques for
electric machines and drives
This book combines the knowledge of experts from both academia and the
software industry to present theories of multiphysics simulation by
design for electrical machines, power electronics, and drives. The
comprehensive design approach described within supports new applications
required by technologies sustaining high drive efficiency. The
highlighted framework considers the electric machine at the heart of the
entire electric drive. The book also emphasizes the simulation by design
concept--a concept that frames the entire highlighted design
methodology, which is described and illustrated by various advanced
simulation technologies.
Multiphysics Simulation by Design for Electrical Machines, Power
Electronics and Drives begins with the basics of electrical machine
design and manufacturing tolerances. It also discusses fundamental
aspects of the state of the art design process and includes examples
from industrial practice. It explains FEM-based analysis techniques for
electrical machine design--providing details on how it can be employed
in ANSYS Maxwell software. In addition, the book covers advanced
magnetic material modeling capabilities employed in numerical
computation; thermal analysis; automated optimization for electric
machines; and power electronics and drive systems. This valuable
resource:
- Delivers the multi-physics know-how based on practical electric
machine design methodologies
- Provides an extensive overview of electric machine design optimization
and its integration with power electronics and drives
- Incorporates case studies from industrial practice and research and
development projects
Multiphysics Simulation by Design for Electrical Machines, Power
Electronics and Drives is an incredibly helpful book for design
engineers, application and system engineers, and technical
professionals. It will also benefit graduate engineering students with a
strong interest in electric machines and drives.
