Module:DP,DS,LS2013-02-28
Smaller size and higher output are being demanded of the motors used for applications such as air conditioning compressors. One production technique for achieving this is a higher lamination factor in divided cores. The stress caused by press-fitting a divided stator core into a frame is known to increase iron loss in a motor if magnetic steel sheet is used for the core.
Iron loss is affected by magnetic flux density and stress. Specifically, it increases in areas of high magnetic flux density with high frequency, and in areas of high stress. Further, the stress caused by press fitting has its own distribution, and is particularly large in the core and back yoke. So, in order to evaluate the iron loss with good accuracy, it is necessary to correctly obtain the magnetic flux density distribution, time variations, and stress distribution.
This Application Note presents how to use the Press Fit condition to model an analysis of the stress from fitting a core to a frame, and then obtain the iron loss density of an IPM motor under no load, with and without accounting for the stress.

Module:DP,DS,LS2013-01-28
The laminated structure of a core in a SPM motor can be sustained using press-fitting or shrink fitting. The press-fitting stress needs to be accounted for in the iron loss evaluation because the stress caused by press-fitting is known to increase the iron losses when a magnetic steel sheet is used for the core of the motor.
An iron loss is generated by the magnetization field in displacement with a steel sheet. The size of the iron loss is dependent on the iron loss properties of a steel sheet. The iron loss characteristics of a steel sheet deteriorates by stress from press fit coupling. The stress generated by the press fit coupling is distributed in areas in which the section in the back yoke becomes large. In order to evaluate the iron loss with good accuracy, it is necessary to obtain the stress distribution for the magnetic flux, time variation, and steel sheet with accuracy.
This note presents the use of the press fit condition to model a core and frame and obtains iron loss density for when the generated stress is used and not used.

Module:DP,DS,LS2013-01-28
A magnetic steel sheet is used for the iron core in a motor. A frame is shrunk into a stator core in order to sustain the laminated structure and to improve the strong joint between the frames. It is know that a compressive stress is generated during the shrinking process which increases the iron loss process. Therefore, it is important to account the affects of stress during iron loss evaluation. Therefore, it is important to account the affects of stress during iron loss evaluation.
An iron loss is generated by the magnetization field in displacement with a steel sheet. The size of the iron loss is dependent on the iron loss properties of a steel sheet. Iron loss characteristics of a steel sheet deteriorates when there is stress in shrinkage. The stress generated by the shrinkage is distributed in areas in which the section in the back yoke becomes large. In order to evaluate the iron loss with good accuracy, it is necessary to obtain the stress distribution for the magnetic flux, time variation, and steel sheet with accuracy.
This note presents an analysis to obtain the iron loss density of an SPM motor both including and not including the stress caused by shrink fitting.
