Abstract

In order to expand the application field of magnetic bearings, this article studies a novel radially isolated active magnetic bearing (IAMB) system in which the stator and the rotor are separated by a layer of metal isolation sleeve. Aimed at the shortcomings of existing modeling methods, a distributed magnetic circuit model (DMCM) was proposed based on the magnetic field segmentation theory for IAMBs. Considering material nonlinearity and leakage flux, the flux distributions of the isolation sleeve and air gap are calculated accurately. Finally, the 3D finite element model (3D FEM) and experimental platform were built to verify the feasibility of the IAMB and the correctness of the DMCM.
