Research on the Material Characteristics and Loss Calculation Method of Cryogenic Permanent Magnet Motor Stator for LNG Pump

Abstract

This paper explores the applicability of cryogenic permanent magnet motor stator materials for LNG pumps. First, this study selected four kinds of silicon steel sheets for motor stators tested at room temperature and ultra-low temperature and obtained the magnetization characteristics and loss characteristics of the four silicon steel sheets at room temperature and ultra-low temperature. Then, through a comparative analysis of experimental data, the applicability of silicon steel sheet material in an ultra-low-temperature environment was verified. Finally, the improved methods of the basic iron loss model of silicon steel sheets and the basic iron loss model of motors were proposed, and the accuracy and feasibility of the improved models were verified.
