Summary for: FluidBarrierRotor < SynRotorBase

Class summary

FluidBarrierRotor Fluid barrier rotor.

A synchronous reluctance (SynRM / SynRG) rotor template, with the barriers defined according to the fluid approach, i.e. the barrier edges following the flux lines as they would flow in a solid homogeneous rotor of linear material.

Dimensions:

• leff : stack length
• p : number of pole-pairs
• Rout : outer radius
• Rin : shaft radius

Barrier dimensions:

• w_guide : array of flux guide thicknesses at the symmetry axis, starting from the innermost (closest to shaft) one
• w_barrier : array of barrier thicknesses at the symmetry axis, or a single scalar for uniform thicknesses.
• w_bridge_out : approximate thickness of the iron bridge between the flux barrier and the rotor OD. Either a scalar value or an array of size numel(w_guide).
• barrier_fillet_radius : Maximum allowed value for the radius of the fillet between the barrier and the outer bridge.

Materials:

• rotor_core_material : Core material
• rotor_stacking_factor : Rotor stacking factor
• shaft_material : shaft material

The barriers are constructed with the FluidBarrier package, with FluidBarrier.FluidBarrierConstructor.
