Research on optimal design of surface permanent magnet synchronous generator

Abstract

The more fossil energy is used, the less this energy source will become because it is not an infinite energy and it pollutes the environment, so there is a need for solutions with new and infinite energy sources such as wind energy. This paper designs and focuses on optimizing a floating magnet synchronous generator (SG) for a wind power generation system using finite element analysis (FEA) with ANSYS Maxwell software. This generator is compared with other types of generators such as squirrel cage induction generator (SCIG), wound rotor induction generator (WRIG), SG, doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG), and switched reluctance generator (SRG). Throughout the analysis and design process, the paper emphasizes the significant benefits of surface-mounted permanent magnet (SPM) motors in increasing efficiency and reliability while reducing supply costs. The research results of the paper aim to demonstrate that SPM can meet the needs of high efficiency and low cost in the industrial and civil fields. The results of this study by the authors will provide new contributions to serve as a basis for the design, manufacture, calculation and control of Halbach permanent magnet (Halbach PM) electric machines based on optimization techniques such as genetic algorithms (artificial intelligence) and sustainable optimization (for electrical equipment).
