VENUES

Venue change

Unfortunately due to the on-going political situation in Serbia we have taken the difficult decision not to take MMA to Serbia this year as planned. We apologise for any incovenience caused by this change at this time, and we very much hope to hold MMA in Serbia in the near future.

Transfer of Complex Polarization Distributions in Permanent Magnets to Customers
by Thomas Schliesch of MAX BAERMANN GMBH

Some specific manufacturing methods for permanent magnets, as those as injection molding, often lead to complex distributions of inherent parameters like remanent polarization or recoil permeability. Knowledge about those distributions can be crucial for the magnet’s customers when doing their own simulations and predictions about the performance of the final application. Examples are simulations of complex magnets in electrical machines, magnetic sensors or magnetic couplings. In many cases it can be difficult to do a direct transfer of data from the magnet’s manufacturer to the end customer due to the use of different simulation systems or by restrictions by the customer’s software. The presentation will start with descriptions of how related distributions of magnetic parameters can be gained by adequate simulations at the manufacturer’s site. It will then explain the various ways how sufficient transfer of data to the customer’s end can be performed. When not using same simulation systems by the magnet producer and the customer, a transfer by use of discrete local distributions can be an option. Unfortunately, many commercial software packages have problems with implementing respective distributions by element or volume-wise changing of material data. As a solution, sometimes heuristic models provide sufficient results, but often with poor accuracy. Instead of that, many numerical packages can handle distributions of inherent magnetic parameters like the polarization vector by mathematical equations. So, the talk will provide various attempts for mathematical approximations to feed respective software systems with magnetic distributions of periodic as well as non-periodic kind. A variety of simulations of different sorts of magnets will be presented together with comparative measured data.
