Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a stator yoke portion is introduced to provide magnetization regulation, then the flexibility of torque adjustment is improved, but the permanent magnet magnetic field leakage increases and the utilization rate of the permanent magnet magnetic field decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent removes the stator yoke portion from the motor structure, extracting the problematic component that caused magnetic field leakage. This extraction eliminates the source of energy loss while preserving the essential magnetization regulation function through alternative design means, thereby resolving the contradiction between torque flexibility and magnetic field utilization.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the stator structure into modular components including armature teeth and modulating teeth, allowing independent optimization of each segment. This segmentation enables effective magnetic field regulation without requiring a continuous stator yoke, reducing magnetic leakage while maintaining torque adjustability through the modular tooth structures.
2Ease of manufacture
If the spatial locations of armature winding and permanent magnet units are not optimally allocated, then the manufacturing process is simpler, but the torque density cannot be maximized
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs preliminary computational optimization to determine the optimal spatial allocation of armature windings and permanent magnets before manufacturing. By performing design-stage optimization using algorithms that consider multiple objectives simultaneously, the patent achieves maximum torque density while maintaining manufacturing feasibility, resolving the contradiction between simplicity and performance.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent systematically varies key design parameters including winding pitch, magnet pole positions, and tooth dimensions to optimize the spatial relationship between armature windings and permanent magnets. Through parameter optimization, the patent achieves high torque density while maintaining practical manufacturability by identifying parameter combinations that balance performance and fabrication complexity.
3Measurement precision
If computational optimization is performed without reducing the number of variables, then the optimization accuracy is maintained, but the computational complexity and time consumption increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the optimization problem into hierarchical levels, separating design variables into different categories such as geometric parameters, magnetic parameters, and winding parameters. This segmentation allows the optimization algorithm to process variables in organized groups, reducing computational complexity while maintaining comprehensive optimization accuracy through systematic multi-level variable management.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transforms the optimization problem by changing parameters into dimensionless forms or grouping them into composite parameters that reduce the total number of independent variables. This parameter transformation maintains the essential optimization relationships while significantly reducing computational complexity, enabling accurate optimization to be performed more efficiently.
