The Role of Neodymium-Iron-Boron in Relation to Other Materials for Permanent Magnet Machines with Embedded Rotor Magnets

  • Chapter
Concerted European Action on Magnets (CEAM)

Abstract

The performance of permanent magnet machines excited by neodymium magnets is assessed by comparison with samarium cobalt and ferrite magnets. Both 4 pole and 6 pole machines have been constructed using the ‘high field’ configuration developed and patented by the Liverpool group. The characteristics of a drive system involving an ultrasonically modulated inverter and a permanent magnet machine are demonstrated.
