Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of magnetic bearing performance testing technology, and in particular to a high-speed magnetic bearing loss testing platform and testing method. Background Technology

[0002] Magnetic bearings, as an advanced support technology characterized by non-contact, frictionless operation, high speed, and high precision, have shown great application potential in high-end equipment fields such as aerospace, high-speed motors, energy and power, and precision machine tools. However, during high-speed rotation, magnetic bearings themselves generate various power losses. These losses not only reduce system efficiency but also lead to bearing temperature rise, directly affecting the rotor's dynamic characteristics and the system's operational stability and reliability. Therefore, accurate measurement, analysis, and separation of the various losses in magnetic bearings are crucial prerequisites for bearing optimization design, performance evaluation, and engineering applications.

[0003] Existing magnetic levitation bearing loss testing methods and devices have many limitations and cannot meet the requirements of high-speed and high-precision testing. These limitations are mainly reflected in the following aspects: 1. The test conditions are singular and cannot simulate the real environment: Traditional tests are usually carried out under normal pressure, which cannot effectively separate and quantify the wind friction loss that dominates at high speed. This results in a significant distortion of the "total loss" measured under normal pressure, failing to accurately reflect the true loss characteristics of the bearing in closed or vacuum environments. Secondly, loss separation is difficult, and measurement accuracy is low. Commonly used copper loss measurements often rely on direct calculation using formulas, neglecting the high-frequency AC copper loss caused by the skin effect and proximity effect. Furthermore, the winding resistance changes with temperature, introducing substantial calculation errors. There is a lack of effective means to measure copper loss online during operation. Thirdly, the iron loss components of magnetic levitation bearings are complex, including rotor and stator iron losses, and are closely related to the bias magnetic field strength. Conventional methods struggle to effectively separate rotor and stator iron losses without shutting down the machine or altering the structure, and further subdivide axial and radial stator iron losses, failing to achieve precise separation of iron loss components. Fourthly, there is a lack of comprehensive testing platforms. Existing test benches have relatively limited functions, often focusing on measuring a single type of loss. There is a lack of a comprehensive experimental platform that integrates vacuum environment simulation and simultaneous monitoring of multiple environmental parameters, leading to cumbersome testing procedures, poor data correlation, and difficulty in comprehensively and systematically evaluating the loss performance of magnetic levitation bearings.

[0004] Therefore, it is essential to provide a high-speed magnetic levitation bearing loss test platform and testing method that can effectively separate and quantify the wind friction loss that dominates at high speeds by providing an adjustable vacuum environment, accurately reflect the real loss characteristics of the bearing in a closed or vacuum application environment, and facilitate the further separation of copper loss and iron loss from the total loss. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the present invention proposes a comprehensive testing platform and testing method for high-speed magnetic levitation bearing loss, which can change the vacuum level of the component in which the magnetic levitation bearing under test is located and quantify the wind friction loss through the change in vacuum level.

P i Vacuum degree serial number i =1, 2, ..., m and wind friction loss under normal pressureP w0 Based on this, the wind friction loss under various vacuum levels is calculated. The change in total loss is used as the change in wind friction loss at a fixed speed. The change in wind friction loss is fitted with a power function to the vacuum level at a single speed. Then, the speed is changed, and the change in wind friction loss is fitted with a power function to the vacuum level at different speeds to construct an expression for wind friction loss at any speed and vacuum level. S3: Separate DC and AC copper losses; obtain the resistance of each winding of the axial magnetic levitation bearing and the two radial magnetic levitation bearings through heating tests. R tj The active power consumed by each winding is obtained as the total copper loss of each winding, and the effective values ​​of current and voltage for each winding are recorded.

[0013] Preferably, step S2 includes the following: S21: First, at a fixed rotational speed n 0 drives the spindle to run, measuring the total loss under normal pressure. P 0; then maintain a fixed rotation speed. n Keeping the vacuum level constant (0), varying the vacuum level and measuring different vacuum levels. p vi = p v1 , p v2 … p vm Total loss P 1, P 2, ..., P m At this point, the change in total loss is equal to the change in windage loss Δ. P i Fixed speed n Any vacuum degree below 0 p vi The wind friction loss at normal pressurep v0 Corresponding wind friction loss P w0 Subtract △ P i ; to obtain any vacuum degree p vi Wind friction loss and current vacuum level p vi Data pairs constructed from sequence values ​​( p vi , P w ( p vi By fitting the data, we can obtain the results at a fixed rotational speed. n The power function expression under 0; S22: Change the current rotational speed to obtain multiple different rotational speeds. n 1, n 2, ..., n k Repeat step S21 for each rotational speed. n k Each of these yields a corresponding power function expression. By rewriting the power function, we can obtain the wind speed loss under arbitrary vacuum and rotational speed. P w .

[0014] Preferably, in step S3, the resistance of each winding of the axial magnetic levitation bearing and the two radial magnetic levitation bearings is obtained through a heating test. R tj It uses an adjustable DC regulated power supply, a high-precision ammeter, and a high-precision voltmeter to measure the initial temperature. T Apply 10% of the rated current to any winding at 0°C and measure the initial resistance. R 0.

T , R t The resistance-temperature relationship of the current winding is obtained by fitting the data using the least squares method. Temperature and resistance data pairs are obtained for each winding and fitted using the least squares method to obtain the resistance-temperature relationship of each winding.

[0015] Preferably, in step S4, by configuring different axial and radial bias currents, the functions of axial bias current and rotor loss, and the functions of radial bias current and rotor loss, are obtained under a certain vacuum degree and rotor speed. The axial stator iron loss and radial electronic iron loss are then calculated respectively, and the stator iron loss is obtained by adding the axial electronic iron loss and the radial stator iron loss. This is done under the same rotational speed and the same vacuum degree, given different bias currents. i p The corresponding free deceleration test was conducted to obtain a set of data points ( i p1 , P r1 ), ( i p2 , P r2 ), ... ( i pn , P rn ), P r ={ p r1 , p r2 ... p rn} represents the corresponding total rotor loss, and the total rotor loss is fitted as a power function using data points. P r ( i p The expression for ) is given; then for the axial bias current. i pt and radial bias current i pa By fitting the equation in power function form, the functions of radial bias current with respect to rotor loss are obtained as follows: P r ( i pa and the function of axial bias current with respect to rotor losses. P r ( i pt Setting the radial bias current to 0, the total rotor loss is then obtained. P r ( i pa If =0), then the radial stator iron loss is: P AsFe = P r ( i p )- P r ( i pa=0); Let the axial bias current be 0, then the axial stator iron loss P TsFe = P r ( i p )- P r ( i pt =0); stator iron loss is obtained through addition. P sFe = P AsFe + P TsFe .

[0016] The present invention provides a high-speed magnetic levitation bearing loss testing platform and testing method, which has the following advantages compared with the prior art: 1. By placing a vacuum chamber and multiple temperature sensors on the test platform, the operating status of the bearing can be obtained more synchronously. The vacuum chamber effectively isolates the external environment, and the impact of wind friction loss can be quantified by the change in vacuum degree, thereby improving the measurement accuracy of wind friction loss.

[0017] 2. Further, through heating tests and resistance-temperature relationship fitting, not only DC copper loss was considered, but also AC copper loss caused by factors such as high-frequency harmonics was separated, which is particularly important for bearing design in high-frequency applications.

[0018] 3. By changing the bias current and observing its effect on rotor losses, the axial and radial stator iron losses are calculated separately, ultimately yielding the total stator iron loss and rotor iron loss. This method provides an effective means for a deeper understanding of the distribution of iron losses in magnetic levitation bearings. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] Some methods and devices for testing the losses of magnetic levitation bearings have many limitations, making it difficult to meet the requirements of high-speed and high-precision testing. For example, the test conditions are singular and cannot simulate the real environment: traditional tests are usually carried out under normal pressure, which cannot effectively separate and quantify the wind friction loss that dominates at high speeds; commonly used copper loss measurements are mostly calculated directly using formulas, but they ignore the high-frequency AC copper loss caused by the skin effect and proximity effect, and the winding resistance changes with temperature, introducing a large calculation error; the iron loss components of magnetic levitation bearings are complex, including rotor iron loss and stator iron loss, and are closely related to the bias magnetic field strength. Conventional methods are difficult to effectively separate rotor iron loss and stator iron loss without stopping the machine or changing the structure; existing test benches have relatively simple functions, often focusing on the measurement of a certain type of loss, and lack a comprehensive experimental platform that integrates vacuum environment simulation and simultaneous monitoring of multiple environmental parameters.

[0023] In view of this, such as Figure 1 As shown, on one hand, the present invention provides a high-speed magnetic levitation bearing loss test platform, including a vacuum chamber, a support unit, a drive unit, a magnetic levitation bearing unit, and a measurement unit; The vacuum chamber is used to configure a vacuum test environment; the vacuum level inside the vacuum chamber is adjustable to simulate the effects of wind friction loss under different vacuum levels. A support unit is used to carry the drive unit, magnetic levitation bearing unit, and measurement unit, and to send them into the vacuum chamber; A drive unit is disposed on the end face of the support unit away from the ground. The movable end of the drive unit is connected to the magnetic levitation bearing unit and is used to transmit torque to the magnetic levitation bearing unit. The measurement unit, located in the magnetic levitation bearing unit, is used to acquire detection signals of vacuum degree, displacement, temperature and rotation speed, and also evaluates the wear status of the magnetic levitation bearing unit through a built-in loss separation algorithm.

[0024] The aforementioned high-speed magnetic levitation bearing loss test platform has a reasonable structure and high integration. It can be used for the performance verification of high-speed magnetic levitation bearings, and can reliably separate and calculate wind friction loss, copper loss and iron loss. It has high measurement accuracy and a wide range of applications.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the vacuum chamber includes a chamber 2, with a fixed door 1 at one end and a movable door 8 at the other end. The chamber 1 provides a vacuum environment. The chamber 2 is a cylindrical cavity structure. The fixed door 1 is bolted to the chamber 2 and has a connection port for connecting to a vacuum pump. The movable door 8 is movably connected to the chamber 2 via a cylindrical pin, forming an openable passage. In a preferred embodiment, symmetrical support legs are provided on both sides of the chamber 2 to maintain the stability of the chamber 2's attitude and position.

[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, the support unit includes two slide rails 3, a test bench 7, and foldable support legs 23. The two slide rails 3 are arranged parallel and spaced apart inside the chamber 2, extending along a direction parallel to the central axis of the chamber 2. The foldable support legs 23 are provided at the end of the test bench 7 away from the chamber to maintain the horizontal state of the test bench 7. Both the foldable support legs 23 and the end of the test bench 7 near the chamber are provided with pulleys 4, which are rolledly connected to the slide rails 3. The extending direction of the two slide rails 3 is parallel to the axis of the chamber 2.

[0027] Since the test bench 7 is always inserted into the chamber 2 at one end first, a foldable support leg 23 is only provided at one end. The foldable support leg 23 in the stored state can ensure that the test bench 7 is level. The pulley 4 is connected to the slide rail 3 in a rolling manner, which can ensure that the support unit can be smoothly put into or removed from the chamber 2.

[0028] Similarly, Figure 1 As shown, the drive unit includes a motor mounting platform 5 and a drive motor 6. The motor mounting platform 5 is fixedly connected to the end face of the test bench 7 that is away from the ground. The drive motor 6 is mounted on the motor mounting platform 5 and fixedly connected to it. The drive motor is used to drive the magnetic levitation bearing unit to rotate. The drive motor 6 and the motor mounting platform 5 are connected by bolts.

[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, the magnetic levitation bearing unit includes a main shaft 10, an axial magnetic levitation bearing 18, two protective bearings, and two radial magnetic levitation bearings. The main shaft 10 is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 6. The axial magnetic levitation bearing 18 is located on the side of the test bench 7 away from the drive motor 6, and the central axis of the axial magnetic levitation bearing 18 is collinear with the central axis of the main shaft 10. Two radial magnetic levitation bearings are spaced apart on the main shaft 10, i.e. Figure 1 Marks 11 and 13 in the figure are the first radial magnetic levitation bearing and the second radial magnetic levitation bearing, respectively; the two protective bearings are the first protective bearing and the second protective bearing, namely marks 9 and 15 in the figure, which are respectively set on the outer side of the non-adjacent end faces of the two radial magnetic levitation bearings and connected to the test bench 7. The central axes of the two radial magnetic levitation bearings and the central axes of the two protective bearings are all collinear with the central axis of the main shaft 10.

[0030] The measurement unit includes a vacuum sensor 22, several displacement sensors, several temperature sensors, and a speed sensor 21. Vacuum sensors 22, speed sensors 21, one displacement sensor, and several temperature sensors are configured at different positions on the side end face of the axial magnetic bearing 18. Several displacement sensors and several temperature sensors are configured along the circumference of both radial magnetic bearings. In this embodiment, a total of nine displacement sensors, 19 temperature sensors, one vacuum sensor, and one speed sensor are configured to acquire relevant operating parameters of the axial magnetic bearing 18 and the two radial magnetic bearings, thereby providing data support for the loss separation algorithm.

[0031] In addition, such as Figure 5 As shown, the present invention also provides a testing method for a high-speed magnetic levitation bearing loss testing platform, comprising the following steps: S0: Configure the high-speed magnetic levitation bearing loss test platform described above; vacuum sensors 22, speed sensors 21, first displacement sensors 20, first temperature sensors 16, and second temperature sensors 18 are arranged at different positions on one side end face of the axial magnetic levitation bearing 18, and a third temperature sensor 19 is arranged on the other side end face. The temperature sensors are located at the winding of the axial magnetic levitation bearing 18; four second displacement sensors 14 and eight fourth temperature sensors 12 are arranged at the circumferential winding of the first radial magnetic levitation bearing 11; four second displacement sensors 14 and eight fourth temperature sensors 12 are also arranged at the circumferential winding of the second radial magnetic levitation bearing 13. Start the drive unit and maintain the air gap between the rotor and stator of the axial magnetic levitation bearing and the two radial magnetic levitation bearings at 10-50μm; the measurement unit has a built-in loss separation algorithm.

[0032] S1: Obtain the total loss under normal pressure; at the target speed. n Below, the total loss is read directly using a dynamometer.P Including wind friction loss P w Iron loss of axial magnetic bearings and two radial magnetic bearings P Fe and copper loss P Cu Total loss P Its composition is as follows: Total loss P The reading can be obtained directly from the dynamometer at the stator power supply.

[0033] S2: Measuring and separating wind friction loss; first, given atmospheric pressure and a fixed speed. n Total loss at 0 P 0, then the support unit, drive unit, magnetic levitation bearing unit, and measuring unit are sent into the vacuum chamber to change the vacuum level inside the chamber and obtain the result at a fixed rotation speed. n 0 and different vacuum levels p vi = p v1 , p v2 … p vm Total loss P 1, P 2, ..., P m Obtain the reduction in total loss Δ under various vacuum levels. P i , i =1, 2, ..., m and wind friction loss under normal pressure P w0 Based on this, wind friction loss is calculated at various vacuum levels. The change in total loss is used as the change in wind friction loss at a fixed speed. The change in wind friction loss is fitted with a power function to the vacuum level at a single speed. Then, the speed is changed, and the power function fitting is repeated for the change in wind friction loss and vacuum level at different speeds to construct an expression for wind friction loss at any speed and vacuum level.

[0034] Wind friction loss P w The main cause is that when the rotor rotates at high speed, it undergoes viscous friction with the surrounding air, which also generates eddies and wakes. The higher the speed, the more obvious the loss.

[0035] like Figure 6 As shown, step S2 includes the following: S21: First, at a fixed speed n 0 drives the spindle to run, measuring the total loss under normal pressure. P 0; then maintain a fixed rotation speed. nKeeping the vacuum level constant (0), varying the vacuum level and measuring different vacuum levels. p vi = p v1 , p v2 … p vm Total loss P 1, P 2, ..., P m subscript i The vacuum degree sequence number is used. At this point, the change in total loss equals the change in windage loss. A constant rotational speed is fitted. n Wind friction loss expression at 0 P w ( p vi , n 0).

[0036] Here, the vacuum gauge reading is observed when it remains essentially constant for half a minute, with fluctuations not exceeding 10 Pa. The maximum value is recorded as the current vacuum level. p v sequence values p v1 , p v2 , ..., p vm For example, 20000Pa, 10000Pa, 5000Pa, ...; obtain the total loss under the corresponding vacuum level. P 1, P 2, ..., P m Assuming normal pressure p v0 Corresponding wind friction loss P w0 =△ P max Since iron loss and copper loss remain essentially constant under constant rotational speed and magnetic field conditions, the reduction in total loss is equivalent to the reduction in windage loss Δ. P i = P 0- P i , P 0 represents a fixed rotational speed. n Total losses measured at 0 and normal pressure. P i The total loss is calculated under different vacuum levels. i =1,2,..., m At a fixed speed n Any vacuum degree below 0 p viThe expression for wind friction loss is as follows: P w ( p vi )= P w0 -△ P i ; to obtain any vacuum degree p vi Wind friction loss and current vacuum level p vi Data pairs constructed from sequence values ​​( p vi , P w ( p vi By fitting the data, we can obtain the results at a fixed rotational speed. n The expression for the power function under 0: P w ( p v, n 0)= K n0 ×( p v ) b , K n0 For the fitting coefficients, b This is the exponential term.

[0037] S22: Then change the speed, such as 80,000 rpm, 60,000 rpm, ... for each speed. n k A set of fitting coefficients was obtained for each. K nk The data pairs consisting of rotational speed and fitting coefficients ( n k , K nk Power function fitting is performed to construct the final expression for wind friction loss.

[0038] Change the current rotational speed and repeat step S21 to obtain multiple different rotational speeds. n 1, n 2, ..., n k The rotational speed here is obtained through a speed sensor. When the rotational speed reaches the target value and the fluctuation range does not exceed 5 rpm, the speed is considered stable. For each rotational speed... n k All can get the corresponding k Group fitting coefficients K nk and exponential terms b kTake the average of multiple exponential terms. , the fitting coefficient term K nk Rewritten as rotational speed n The power function is obtained K nk = K'•n c ; K’ For coefficient terms, c A general variable for the current rotational speed n The exponential term; combining the contents of steps S21 and S22, we obtain the final expression for wind friction loss: This expression allows us to obtain the windage loss at any vacuum level and rotational speed. P w This allows wind friction loss to be separated from total loss.

[0039] S3: Separate DC and AC copper losses; obtain the resistance of each winding of the axial magnetic levitation bearing and the two radial magnetic levitation bearings through heating tests. R tj The active power consumed by each winding is obtained as the total copper loss of each winding, and the effective values ​​of current and voltage for each winding are recorded. The copper loss of each winding includes DC copper loss and AC copper loss; based on the effective values ​​of current and resistance of each winding... R tj Calculate the DC copper loss of each winding; from the DC copper loss in the total copper loss of each winding, obtain the AC copper loss of each winding.

[0040] The heating test consisted of the following steps: using an adjustable DC regulated power supply, a high-precision ammeter, and a high-precision voltmeter, at the initial temperature... T At 0 degrees Celsius, at the initial temperature T When a very small DC current, such as 10% of the rated current, is applied to any winding at 0°C, the initial resistance at the reference temperature is measured as follows: R 0; then slowly increase the DC current, allowing the coil to heat up spontaneously through the Joule effect. To ensure safety, set the absolute upper limit of the winding temperature to 125℃; stop increasing the current when the temperature reaches 120℃. Ensure the winding temperature change rate is less than 0.5℃ / minute before measuring the winding temperature. T and the current voltage of the winding U and current I Calculate the resistance at the current temperature. R t = U / I Several temperature resistance data pairs were obtained at different winding temperatures. T , R tBy fitting the data using the least squares method, the resistance-temperature relationship of the current winding is obtained. ,in α is the temperature coefficient of resistance.

[0041] For other windings, repeat the above measurement process and fit similar resistance-temperature relationships. Then, write all the resistance-temperature relationships uniformly as follows: subscript j Indicates the first j One winding, T j , T 0j The first j The current temperature and reference temperature of each winding.
