description | Because of the complexity of the structure and magnetic circuit of the micro claw-pole stepper motor, it is difficult to analyze this kind of motor quickly and accurately. Therefore, it takes a lot of time to accurately model and use the three-dimensional finite element analysis method to accurately analyze the motor. Regarding the three-dimensional finite element method, the equivalent magnetic circuit method analysis is fast, but the accuracy is not high. In order to better study the performance of this kind of micro claw-pole motor and reduce the cost of optimization time, this paper adopts the method of combining the equivalent magnetic circuit method and three-dimensional finite element analysis to analyze the static torque characteristics of the micro permanent magnet claw-pole stepper motor. Firstly, the equivalent magnetic circuit method is used for theoretical analysis, the air-gap flux equation is deduced, and the relationship between the electromagnetic torque and the geometric parameters of the motor is deduced. Then, the three-dimensional finite element simulation results are substituted into the relevant formulas defined by the equivalent magnetic circuit method to obtain a more accurate electromagnetic torque. Finally, through the comparison and analysis of the experimental data, simulation data, and theoretical calculation values, the error rate of the derived motor torque is within 8.5%. The micromotor studied in this paper is optimized, and the holding torque is increased by 12.5% under the premise that the braking torque does not change much. The simulation calculation time is effectively shortened, the analysis difficulty is reduced, and the calculation accuracy is high. It is shown that the method combining the equivalent magnetic circuit method and the three-dimensional finite element analysis method is suitable for preliminary design research and optimization calculation of the micro claw-pole stepper motor. |
