Magnetic Field Analysis Software 【μ-E&S Vector Magnetic Property Analysis / Development Case Studies】
A small high-output motor developed by Professor Masato Enokizono of the Institute of Vector Magnetic Characteristics Technology, capable of continuous operation at 10,000 RPM with a diameter of approximately 10 cm and air cooling.
Introduction of the article published in the March 22nd edition of the Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun. Development centered around Professor Masato Enokizono (Specially Appointed Professor at Nippon Bunri University, Emeritus Professor at Oita University, Visiting Professor at RWTH Aachen University) who conceived the "Vector Magnetic Property Analysis" technology. *The article can be found at the following links: 1) Vector Magnetic Property Technology Research Institute http://www.vector-magtec.jp/index.html 2) Mutec HP news https://www.mutec.org/ - Induction motors are used in various industries; they are simple, robust, resistant to harsh environments, low-cost, and maintenance-free. - For higher output, larger sizes are needed, and even small sizes can achieve high output with high-speed rotation, but core heating is an issue. - Currently, electromagnetic steel sheets are about 300μm thick; thinning them helps suppress heating, and this time, a practical 80μm steel sheet has been invented. - Thin steel sheets are difficult to laminate, so they will be mass-produced using a winding lamination method. A dual-type rotor that sandwiches the rotor from both sides will further increase torque. - EV synchronous motors generate a lot of heat in the coils, and magnets are sensitive to heat, requiring water cooling systems; the developed induction motor uses air cooling, and low output can be integrated into four wheels. - A new choice technique that overturns the common belief that "induction motors are impossible!" The challenges for high-speed operation include coil winding, processing ultra-thin electromagnetic steel sheets, and low friction for the rotating shaft. We aim for practical application through joint research with manufacturers specializing in these technologies.
