For example, magnetic induction of Neodymium magnet at 80C is 90% at 100C, and reduced magnetic induction does not recover at temperature above 80C. Then cooling of permanent magnet was assumed in the previous comment.<br /><br />By the way, China have successfully developed PMSM for submarine last year [3]. <br /><br /><br />[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remanence<br />Remanence or remanent magnetization or residual magnetism is the magnetization left behind in a ferromagnetic material (such as iron) after an external magnetic field is removed. It is also the measure of that magnetization.<br /><br />[2] http://www.shinetsu-rare-earth-magnet.jp/e/design/words/t_c_b.html<br />The thermal coefficient of remanence generally has a negative value and the smaller the absolute value, the less the change of the remanence with temperature<br /><br />[3] http://xjp.52hrtt.com/web/news_info.do?id=G1508913314551<br />(China's submarines test one of the world's top equipment, 2017-10-26 12:27)<br /><br />Regards<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19245896.post-15592071567810380882018-02-15T16:48:02.321+11:002018-02-15T16:48:02.321+11:00Hi Anonymouses [at 12/2/18 1:46 PM and 15/2/18 12:...Hi Anonymouses [at 12/2/18 1:46 PM and 15/2/18 12:11 AM]<br /><br />Thanks for the info and links.<br /><br />I must admit I'm no expert on such highly technical matters.<br /><br />Cheers<br /><br />PetePetehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02624742078679760819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19245896.post-66553410488217534652018-02-15T00:11:04.804+11:002018-02-15T00:11:04.804+11:00Hi Pete

Its feature is silence and low friction.<br /><br />(2)Bell-shaped rotor with permanent magnet<br />Magnet is fixed on metal (blue colored). Green part of rotor is fixed on shaft.<br /><br />(3)Stator core<br />Stator is fixed on its housing. Stator core is water-cooled using two blue tubes. <br /><br />(4)Shaft<br />Only left side of shaft supports heavy bell-shaped rotor, but, left end of shaft is supported by sleeve bearing (1). Right end of shaft is supported by floating bearing (through lubricant oil?), because weight distribution of rotor on the right side is small. To reduce peripheral velocity of floating bearing, diameter of right side of shaft is smaller than that of left side. <br /><br />(5)Integrated converter<br /> Converter housing is fixed in stator housing. Converter and stator is connected by electritial wires (omitted) through rectangular hole of converter housing. In this figure, water cooling is omitted. But, I think inner cylindical surface (and circular surface) is water cooled to absorb heat from permanent magnet.<br /><br />Regards<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19245896.post-80354608678929262862018-02-12T13:46:28.893+11:002018-02-12T13:46:28.893+11:00Hi Pete

Judging from diameter of pipes or tubes for water cooling, volumetric flow rate of PERMASYN seems to be smaller than that of MAGTRONIC [1, 2].<br /><br />[1] https://www.naval-technology.com/contractors/electrical/jeumont-electric/<br />In Sorpene submarine, silver pipe line connected three flanges for fuid (air, liquid) transport is on side wall of the motor. This silver pipe line is for water cooling. Diameter of pipe is bigger than tubes for water cooling in PERMASYN [2]. <br /><br />[2]http://www.ew.tu-darmstadt.de/media/ew/vortrge/greenenergyconversion/gec_8.pdf , page 8/20, left hand side picrue. 4 tubes for water cooling are set on the upper front of the motor.<br /><br />[3]Ibid, page 8/22.

I think in MAGTRONIC, elementary module comprises stator at least one sub-assembly, at least one rotor sub-assembly and at least one casting element connected to the stator sub-asssembly, the said sub-assemblies being dispose coaxially. PERMASYN comprises inverter, rotor and stator being dispose concentricly from the shaft to the inner surface of motor cylinder. SMC-8s comprise seem to two rotors on the shaft and stators on the inner surface of motor cylinder.<br /><br />Features of these motors should be understood to make correct choice of PMSMs.<br /><br />Regards<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19245896.post-67845483932825414842018-02-10T23:25:41.890+11:002018-02-10T23:25:41.890+11:00Dear Pete,

Figure [1] shows tandem connected motors with significantly increased size. As large output is expected for tandem motor and exchange of Nd motor is difficult, heat restistant Nd magnent, which is slightly less maximum energy product (key figure of performance for PMSM) but shows less thermal degradation, may be suitable for large or nuke submarine. Hot water from bearing or magnent is transported by small motor, which is vibreation source, to heat exchanger for cooling. Aslo heat radiation through large fin on motor surfaces are adopted [1-5]. Mountings of PERMASYN and MAGTRONIC are different each other [5] which may affect anti-vibration feature. Water cooling pipes seem to be set on the side of motor, but in PERMASYN pipes are set in front/ back side of motor?<br /><br /><br />[1]http://www.jeumontelectric.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/JE-Marine.pdf<br />(Power and propulsion system), page3/6, right hand side pictute “Generation and propulsion in a submarine”<br /><br />[2]Ibid, page 3/6, right hand side picture “Combined test of Scorpene propulsion motor”<br /><br />[3]Ibid, page 4/6, right hand side picture “PM synchronous propulsion motor”<br /><br />[4]https://www.jeumontelectric.com/actualites/le-premier-des-six-sous-marins-indiens-scorpene-debute-ses-essais-en-mer/?lang=en (FIRST INDIAN SCORPENE-CLASS SUBMARINE BEGINS SEA TRIALS).

Before correction
The SMC-8 main motor co...Hi Pete<br /><br />Before correction<br />The SMC-8 main motor consists of two rotors and two bearings. The SMC-8 main motor’s maximum output is 6 MW. If two small main motors (eg. 4 MW each or total?), each consisting of a single and smaller rotor and two bearings, are connected in tandem, the load on each bearing would be significantly reduced, improving the durability of motors.<br /><br /><br />After correction and addition<br />The SMC-8 consists of two rotors and three bearings (two journal bearings which support the cylindrical rotating shaft at bow and stern sides, and one thrust bearing in which support axial load caused by propulsion at stern side). The SMC-8’s maximum output is 5.9 MW.<br /><br />In tandem motor consisted of two motors (four jounal bearings, one thrust bearing), load at each journal bearing will reduce than single motor (two jounal bearings, one thrust bearing) with same output, because weight of rotor per unit journal bearing reduces. Disadvantages of tandem motor are unchanged thrust load, increased size of motor, increased number of vibration sources (increased number of bearings) and so on. Tandem motor may be applicable for large convensional submarine or nuclear submarine.<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
