摘要:
A system and method for heating ferrite permanent magnets in an electrical machine is disclosed. The permanent magnet machine (10) includes a stator assembly (12) and a rotor assembly (14), with a plurality of ferrite permanent magnets (32) disposed within the stator assembly or the rotor assembly to generate a magnetic field that interacts with a stator magnetic field to produce a torque. A controller (22) of the electrical machine is programmed to cause a primary field current to be applied to the stator windings to generate the stator magnetic field, so as to cause the rotor assembly to rotate relative to the stator assembly. The controller (22) is further programmed to cause a secondary current to be applied to the stator windings to selectively generate a secondary magnetic field, the secondary magnetic field inducing eddy currents in at least one of the stator assembly and the rotor assembly to heat the ferrite permanent magnets.

摘要:
An internal permanent magnet machine 10 includes a rotor assembly 12 having a shaft 18 comprising a plurality of protrusions 22 extending radially outward from a main shaft body 24 and being formed circumferentially about the main shaft body 24 and along an axial length of the main shaft body 24. A plurality of stacks of laminations 30 are arranged circumferentially about the shaft to receive the plurality of protrusions 22 therein, with each stack of laminations 30 including a plurality of lamination groups arranged axially along a length of the shaft and with permanent magnets 34 being disposed between the stacks of laminations 30. Each of the laminations 30 includes a shaft protrusion cut formed therein to receive a respective shaft protrusion 22 and, for each of the stacks of laminations 30, the shaft protrusion cuts formed in the laminations of a respective lamination group are angularly offset from the shaft protrusion cuts formed in the laminations in an adjacent lamination group.
