The paper presents a fast and accurate algorithm to reconstruct the magnetization model of parallelepiped magnet (parts of a Halbach magnet array) or the Halbach magnet array used in an electromagnetic acoustic (EMAT) transducer. The model accuracy is validated against measurements of the magnetic flux distributions above surface of block magnets or Halbach magnet array using 2D/3D theoretical formula to compute magnetic flux distribution, validated by 2D/3D FEM simulations, and based on a non-uniform distribution of reconstructed magnetization model (using only main magnetization component). The illness of inverse reconstruction model is controlled through very small enough increments steps in an adaptive iterative algorithm but large enough increments to assure faster reconstruction, and converging to the same magnetization model of magnet blocks or Halbach array magnet, independent of the initial magnetization values.

This paper presents magnetic flux analysis of E-Core Hybrid Excited FSM with various rotor pole topologies. The stator consists of three active fluxes sources namely armature coil, field excitation coil and permanent magnet, while the rotor consists of only stack of iron which is greatly reliable for high speed operation. Initially, coil arrangement tests are examined to validate the operating principle of the motor and to identify the zero rotor position. Then, performances of 6S-4P, 6S-5P, 6S-7P and 6S-8P E-Core HEFSMs such as flux path, flux linkage, cogging torque and flux distribution are observed. As conclusion, 6S-5P and 6S-7P designs have purely sinusoidal flux waveform and less cogging torque suitable for high torque and power motor.

AbstractIn this paper the lamination effect on the model of a power transformer’s core with stacked E-I structure is analyzed. The distribution of the magnetic flux in the laminations depends on the stacking method. In this work it is shown, using a 3D FEM model and an experimental prototype, that the non-uniform distribution of the flux in a laminated E-I core with alternate-lap joint stack increases substantially the average value of the magnetic flux density in the core, compared with a butt joint stack. Both the simulated model and the experimental tests show that the presence of constructive air-gaps in the E-I junctions gives rise to a zig-zag flux in the depth direction. This inter-lamination flux reduces the magnetic flux density in the I-pieces and increases substantially the magnetic flux density in the E-pieces, with highly saturated points that traditional 2D analysis cannot reproduce. The relation between the number of laminations included in the model, and the computational resourses needed to build it, is also evaluated in this work.

Abstract Since it is difficult to directly measure the transient stress of a steam turbine rotor in operation, a rotor stress field reconstruction model based on deep fully convolutional network for the start-up process is proposed. The stress distribution in the rotor can be directly predicted based on the temperature of a few measurement points. First, the finite element model is used to accurately simulate the temperature and stress field of the rotor start-up process, generating training data for the deep learning method. Next, data of only 15 temperature measurement points are arranged to predict the stress distribution in critical area of the rotor surface, with the accuracy (R2-score) reaching 0.997. The time cost of the trained neural network model at a single case is 1.42s in CPUs and 0.11s in GPUs, shortened by 97.3% and 99.8% with comparison to finite element analysis, respectively. In addition, the influence of the number of temperature measurement points and the training size are discussed, verifying the stability of the model. With the advantages of fast calculation, high accuracy and strong stability, the fast reconstruction model can effectively realize the stress prediction during start-up processes, resulting in the possibility of real-time diagnosis of rotor strength in operation.

Corrosion is among the most critical factors leading to the failure of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Less work has been devoted to nondestructive tests (NDT) to detect the corrosion degree of steel bars. The corrosion degree was investigated in this paper using an NDT method based on self-magnetic flux leakage (SMFL). First, a mathematic model based on magnetic dipole model was settled to simulate the SMFL of a V-shaped defect caused by corrosion. A custom 3-axis scanning device equipped with a magnetometer was used to scan the SMFL field of the 40 corroded steel bars. Experimental data obtained by scanning the 40 steel bars showed that the BZ curve of SMFL was consistent with the theoretical model analysis. Inspired by the qualitative analysis of the results, an index “K” based on a large number of experimental data was established to characterize the corrosion degree of steel bars. The experimental index “K” was linearly related to the corrosion degree α of steel bars. This paper provides a feasible approach for the corrosion degree NDT, which is not affected by the magnetization history and the initial magnetization state of steel bars.
