Abstract:To improve the energy dissipation efficiency of a planar eddy current damper (PECD), the compactness and material utilization of typical configurations of single-layer PECD and multilayer one were compared, and the optimal configuration and magnetic circuit of multilayer PECD were further developed and improved.Based on the test results of damping performance of a single-row multilayer PECD prototype, the accuracy of the 3D electromagnetic field finite element steady state analysis method was verified to predict PECD equivalent damping coefficient. Effect laws of magnetic field gap between permanent magnet and conductor copper plate, fixed material, spacing and arrangement of permanent magnets on multilayer PECD’s equivalent damping coefficient were obtained with simulation analysis to propose the optimal configuration and magnetic circuit for multilayer PECD.The results showed that compared with single-layer PECD, the energy dissipation efficiency of multilayer PECD is significantly improved and its structure is more compact;magnetic field gap,and permanent magnets’ fixed material, spacing and arrangement have significant effects on PECD equivalent damping coefficient, and there are optimal parameters for magnetic field gap, magnetic pole arrangement and spacing between adjacent permanent magnets; the optimal configuration and magnetic circuit of multilayer PECD have following features: magnetic field gap is as small as possible; non-magnetic conductive materialis used to fix permanent magnets; permanent magnets on the same side are arranged as an array; along PECD moving direction, magnetic poles between adjacent permanent magnets are arranged opposite with a spacing being 0.2 time of permanent magnet size in the same direction; along the direction perpendicular to PECD moving direction, magnetic poles between adjacent permanent magnets have the same polarity and their spacing is as small as possible.
