Parametric analysis and optimized torque characteristics of a coaxial magnetic gear based on the subdomain analytical model

This paper presents the torque calculation and parametric analysis of a coaxial magnetic gear (CMG). We obtained analytical magnetic field solutions produced by permanent magnets based on a magnetic vector potential. Then, the analytical solutions for magnetic torque were obtained. All analytical results were extensively validated with nonlinear two-dimensional finite element analysis. Finally, using the derived analytical magnetic torque solutions, we carried out parametric analysis to determine the influence of the design parameters on the CMG’s behavior.
