ANALYSIS OF MECHANICAL WORE IN ELECTROMAGNETIC MOTORS

The relationship between magnetic field energy and mechanical work is determined using the energy conservation law in differential form. It is shown that integral work is equal to the magnetic field energy incr ease only when the current is constant during motion. The possibility of obtaining a maximum value of the integral energy efficiency by mean s of maintaining a constant magnetic field is proved. Practical recomm endations are given for improving the integral mechanical work of elec tromagnetic motors with shell-type magnetic systems. Copyright (C) 199 6 Elsevier Science Ltd.
