Abstract

An eccentric harmonic magnetic gear (EHMG) with Halbach array is proposed in this paper. According to the theory of magnetic field modulation and one-side effect, the permanent magnets (PMs) on the inner rotor and outer stator are arranged in a Halbach array. The PMs of inner rotor are divided into three segments per pole, and the PMs on the outer stator are divided into two segments per pole. The proposed EHMG with 15 pole pairs on inner rotor PMs and 16 pole pairs on outer stator PMs is established. The finite element analysis (FEA) is used for simulating the proposed model. The corresponding magnetic field and static torque of the EHMG are calculated. Compared with the conventional EHMG, the results show that the torque density of the proposed EHMG is substantially improved.
