A Simulation Method for a Motor Design Based on Magnetic Resonance Coupling Technology

This paper presents how a novel magnetic resonant coupling motor constructed without any iron core or permanent magnet can be simulated and link to its physical phenomenon. Unrelated to general operational principle of existing conventional electric motors, the application of resonant wireless power transfer system using magnetic resonance coupling technology is the key feature of the motor presented. The paper presents how the design concept of the motor could be simulated from an established modeled topology in an advanced finite element analysis tool. Even though simple in design, the motor presents challenges in analytical modeling and analysis which makes the simulation process and methods used key issues to consider.
