Novel Generalised Notch Filter for Harmonic Vibration Suppression in Magnetic Bearing Systems

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Leopoldo Rossini, Guzmán Borque Gallego

Magnetic bearings represent an important alternative to conventional ball bearings for applications that require very low noise and vibrations. The absence of contact and friction between rotor and stator parts, combined with the use of active vibration co ...

Efficiency Optimisation of Slotless Magnetic Bearing Machines

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Leopoldo Rossini, Guzmán Borque Gallego

Efficiency is one of the key performance indexes in the design of electric motors. When considering fully active magnetic bearing machines, this aspect gain further relevance due to the necessity of actively controlling all the remaining degrees of freedom ...

Magnetic and Mechanical 3-D Modelling of a 15 T Large Aperture Dipole Magnet

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Luca Bottura, Douglas Martins Araujo

In 2018, two structures have been proposed with the goal of replacing the magnetEDIPOthat stopped operating in 2016. These two solutions were designed to generate a field of 15 T on an aperture of 100 x 150 mm2 at 4.2 K by using Nb 3Sn superconducting Ruth ...

Design of Compact Bearingless Disc Drive Systems

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Juan Patricio Tomás Peralta Fierro

Inflating costs and emerging applications are spawning interests toward smaller and faster electric drives. The challenges of miniaturization make magnetic bearings more appealing, as they provide intrinsic high-speed capability and need virtually zero-mai ...

Novel Optimized Shape and Topology for Slotless Windings in BLDC Machines

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Adrien Jean-Michel Thabuis, Guillaume Paul-André Burnand

Slotless windings are commonly used in small size high-speed electrical brushless dc machines. Unlike slotted windings, forced to follow the direction of slots, slotless windings can be freely arranged in the airgap. This represents several opportunities f ...

On-line micro-vibration measurement method for Lorentz-type magnetic-bearing space actuators

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Leopoldo Rossini, Guzmán Borque Gallego

A novel, cost-effective, real-time and on-line method for measuring the generated micro-vibrations and iden- tifying the forces in a magnetic bearing space actuator is proposed. For its validation, an actively-controlled electrodynamic (Lorentz-type) magne ...

Current Control Strategy for Dynamic Winding Reconfiguration of Slotless Brushless DC Motors

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Florian Louis Copt

Depending on the winding configuration, the intrinsic characteristic of a motor differs. By reconfiguring the winding, it becomes possible to increase the torque–speed limitation of a motor. Current proposed methodologies for dynamically reconfiguring the ...

Magnetic Bearing Reaction Wheel Micro-vibration Signature Prediction

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Leopoldo Rossini, Guzmán Borque Gallego

This article presents an analytical micro-vibration model for magnetic bearing reaction wheels (MBRWs) based on a rotordynamics model combined with the active control loop. This model is validated employing a fullyactive Lorentz-type MBRW demonstrator and ...
