Le néodyme appartient à la série des lanthanides se trouvant dans le tableau périodique. Il est le composant clé des aimants permanents Nd2Fe14B implantés dans différents appareils électroniques mais aussi dans appareils dis « écologiques » comme les éoliennes, les voitures ou vélos électriques. De nos jours seulement 1 % du néodyme présent dans les déchets électroniques est recyclé. De fortes tensions géopolitiques ainsi que la croissance rapide de la demande pour ce type d’aimants conduisent à d’importantes spéculations et fluctuations sur le prix du néodyme aggravées par l’appauvrissement annoncé de la ressource.Depuis quelques décennies, plusieurs procédés de recyclage du néodyme ont été développés au niveau des laboratoires sans avoir été utilisés à l’échelle industrielle. Les procédés existants ont plusieurs désavantages comme un grand nombre d’étapes avant d’obtenir le produit final ou encore l’utilisation de grandes quantités de produits chimiques.Le but de ces recherches est le développement d’un procédé pyrochimique pouvant être une alternative à ceux déjà existants. Ce procédé permettrait de récupérer le néodyme sous sa forme métallique en seulement une étape. Pour atteindre cet objet, il a fallu élaborer un réacteur pouvant résister à de hautes températures ainsi qu’aux sels fondus pouvant être corrosifs selon leur composition. Par la suite, les propriétés électrochimiques du néodyme ont été étudiées dans différents sels fondus à base de chlorures et de fluorures afin trouver la configuration optimale pour l’extraction du néodyme contenu dans les aimants permanents.Nous avons ainsi prouvé qu’il était possible d’extraire le néodyme sous sa forme métallique contenu dans de vieux aimants permanents en une seule étape durant une électrolyse. / Neodymium belongs to the lanthanide’s serie of the period system and is the key component of the permanent magnets Nd2Fe14B which are implemented in electronic devices and “green” technologies like wind turbines or electric cars and bicycles. Nowadays, only one percent of the neodymium in electronic scraps is recycled. Due to the geopolitical considerations and a strong increase of the use of permanent magnets, there is an impoverishment of the raw material resources leading to an instable market.Since some decades, few recycling processes have been developed on a lab scale without any upscaling to the industrial scale. The existing processes have several drawbacks like multiple steps to obtain the final desired product. This means that these methods have a long process time or use a large amount of chemical productsThe aim of this research was the development of a pyrochemical process, which could be an alternative to the existing recycling processes in order to extract neodymium from electronic scraps with less steps, a smaller amount of chemical products and a higher recovery rate of the rare neodymium. For this purpose a special reaction chamber has been created which resists to the severe experimental conditions induced by the use of high temperatures and corrosive molten salts. Moreover the electrochemical behaviour of neodymium in different chloride- and fluoride-based molten salts was studied in order to find the most appropriated setup.We could prove that the pyrochemical method could be the solution to recover neodymium from the old permanent magnets under its metallic form in just one single reaction step during an electrolysis.

In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden die Zusammenhänge zwischen der magnetischen Mikrostruktur und der Ausrichtung der Kristallite, sowohl in Sintermagneten als auch in feinkristallinen, warmumgeformten Magneten auf Nd2Fe14B- und Pr2Fe14B-Basis, untersucht. Die EBSD-Technik (electron backscatter diffraction) wurde für Sintermagnete und für feinkristalline, warmumgeformte Magnete auf Nd2Fe14B-Basis erstmals erfolgreich eingesetzt, um eine quantitative Texturanalyse durchzuführen. Die Polfiguren des hoch texturierten Sintermagneten bzw. warmumgeformten Magneten zeigen eine stark ausgeprägte [001] Fasertextur. Aus dem Vergleich von REM-, EBSD- und Kerr-Untersuchungen an ein- und derselben Probenoberfläche der Sintermagnete konnte quantitativ gezeigt werden, wie die Domänenstruktur von der individuellen Orientierung der Nd2Fe14B-Körner abhängt. Die Domänenstruktur der hoch texturierten Sintermagnete weist auf eine starke magnetostatische Wechselwirkung zwischen den Kristalliten hin. In den Heißpresslingen und in den warmumgeformten Magneten auf Nd2Fe14B-Basis und Pr2Fe14B-Basis wurden Wechselwirkungsdomänen mittels Magnetkraftmikroskopie nachgewiesen. Die Wechselwirkungsdomänen, deren Größe stark vom Umformgrad abhängt, sind immer größer als die einzelnen Kristallite. Die Bildung der Wechselwirkungsdomänen wurde auf magnetostatische Wechselwirkung zwischen den Kristalliten zurückgeführt, was mit Hilfe der Wohlfarth-Analyse der Remanenzverhältnisse bestätigt werden konnte. Die magnetische Mikrostruktur der warmumgeformten Magnete wurde mit einem Modell, das auf der Bildung von Ketten magnetischer Momente (parallel zur Kettenachse) beruht, beschrieben. Unterhalb der Temperatur des Spinumorientierungsüberganges der Nd2Fe14B-Phase weisen die Sintermagnete rechteckige Domänenmuster auf. Diese magnetische Mikrostruktur wird durch eine spezifische Verteilung der Domänenwände in Bezug auf Änderungen der magnetischen Anisotropie ausgebildet. Im Gegensatz dazu ändern sich die Wechselwirkungsdomänen in dem warmumgeformten Magneten nicht, was auf die starke magnetostatische Wechselwirkung zwischen den Kristalliten zurückgeführt wurde. / In this work, the correlation between magnetic domain structure and grain alignment in sintered and die-upset magnets, based on Nd2Fe14B and Pr2Fe14B compounds, is investigated. For the first time, EBSD (electron backscatter diffraction) has been successfully applied to conduct a quantitative analysis of the texture of sintered and die-upset Nd2Fe14B magnets. Pole figures of the highly textured sintered and die-upset magnets show a strong [001] fiber texture. By a comparison of SEM, EBSD and Kerr images of the same surface of sintered magnets it was possible to correlate the domain structure of individual grains to their orientation. The domain structure of the highly textured sintered magnet indicates to the presence of a strong magnetostatic interaction between individual grains. Interaction domains have been studied in hot-pressed und die-upset magnets based on Nd2Fe14B and Pr2Fe14B compounds by MFM. The lateral expansion of interaction domains is always larger than grain size and depends from the degree of deformation. The formation of interaction domains is attributed to magnetostatic interaction between individual grains, which has been confirmed by a Wohlfarth’s analysis of the remanence ratio. The magnetic domain structure of die-upset magnets can be described by a model, based on the formation of chains of magnetic moments parallel to the chain direction. Below the spinreorientation temperature of the Nd2Fe14B phase, sintered magnets show a rectangular domain structure. This domain structure is formed by a specific domain wall distribution corresponding to changes of the magnetocrystalline anisotropy. In contrast to this, the interaction domains in the die-upset magnets show no changes below the spinreorientation temperature, what can be also ascribed to the magnetostatic interaction between individual grains.

Micromirror scanners are the most significant of the micro-optical actuator elements with applications in portable digital displays, automotive head-up displays, barcode scanners, optical switches and scanning optical devices in the health care arena for external scanning diagnostics and in vivo scanning diagnostics. Recent development in microscanning technology has seen a shift from conventional electrostatic actuation to electromagnetic actuation mechanisms with major advantages in the ability to produce large scan angles with low voltages, remote actuation, the absence of the pull-in failure mode and the acceptable electrical safety compared to their electrostatic counterparts. Although attempts have been made to employ silicon substrate based MEMS deposition techniques for magnetic materials, the quality and performance of the magnets are poor compared to commercial magnets. In this project, we have developed novel low-cost single and dual-axis polymer hard magnetic micromirror scanners with large scan angles and low power consumption by employing the hybrid fabrication technique of squeegee coating to combine the flexibility of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and the superior magnetic performance of fine particle isotropic NdFeB micropowders. PCB coils produce the Lorentz force required to actuate the mirror for scanning applications. The problem of high surface roughness, low radius of curvature and the magnetic field interaction between the gimbal frame and the mirror have been solved by a part PDMS-part composite fabrication process. Optimum magnetic, electrical and time dependent parameters have been characterized for the high performance operating conditions of the micromirror scanner. The experimental results have been demonstrated to verify the large scan angle actuation of the micromirror scanners at low power consumption.

Thesis (MScEng)--Stellenbosch University, 2013. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Slip-synchronous permanent magnet generators (SS-PMG) is a recently proposed direct-grid connected direct-drive generator topology for wind power applications. It combines a permanent magnet synchronous generator and a slip permanent magnet generator through a common permanent magnet rotor. In this study the possibility of using an eddy current coupling as the slip permanent magnet generator is investigated. The eddy current coupling has the attractive advantage of completely removing cogging and load torque ripple, which are known problems in the SS-PMG. However, the analytical modelling of the eddy current coupling is complex. Three different topologies are considered for the eddy current coupling. A finite element model is presented for the eddy current coupling. It is shown that 2D finite element methods are inaccurate compared to 3D finite element methods when solving eddy currents in eddy current couplings. In order to test the accuracy of the finite element modelling of a large eddy current coupling a prototype slip rotor is designed to operate with an existing permanent magnet rotor. Two topologies are optimally designed and compared for the slip rotor, using 3D finite element transient simulations. One of the designed topologies is used for the construction of the prototype slip rotor. The manufactured eddy current coupling allows for comparison between the 3D finite element simulations and measured results, which shows an excellent correlation. Based on observations of the 3D finite element simulations an analytical approximation of the eddy current coupling is proposed for low slip frequencies. It is shown that the analytical model is very dependent on the accurate modelling of the eddy current paths in the slip rotor, something that is difficult to determine accurately. An approximation is made, again based on 3D finite element simulations, which allows the accurate modelling of the current paths for different axial lengths. The analytical model is used for rapid design optimisation of both the slip rotor and permanent magnet rotor of the eddy current coupling, for two different eddy current coupling topologies. The optimised eddy current coupling design with the best results is compared to existing slip permanent magnet generator technologies. The eddy current coupling is shown to have the potential to be a feasible alternative to existing slip permanent magnet generator topologies for application in slip-synchronous permanent magnet generators. It has excellent torque versus slip behaviour, and no cogging or load torque ripple. However, the manufacturing and assembly process of the proposed slip rotor has to be improved for the eddy current coupling to be a realistic competitor to the existing slip permanent magnet generator technologies. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die glip-sinkroon permanente magneet generator is ʼn direk-aangedrewe wind generator wat direk aan die krag netwerk gekoppel kan word. Dit kombineer ʼn permanente magneet sinkroon generator en ʼn permanente magneet glip generator deur middel van ʼn gemeenskaplike permanente magneet rotor. In hierdie studie word die moontlike gebruik van ʼn werwelstroom skakel as plaasvervanger vir die permanente magneet glip generator ondersoek. Die werwelstroom skakel het geen vertandings of las draaimoment rimpeling nie, wat bekende probleme vir die glip-sinkroon permanente magneet generator is. Die analitiese modellering van die werwelstroom skakel is egter nie eenvoudig nie. Daar word drie verskillende topologieë oorweeg vir die werwelstroom skakel. ʼn Eindige element model word ontwikkel vir die werwelstroom skakel. Dit word bevind dat 2D eindige element analise onvoldoende is vir die berekening van werwelstrome in die werwelstroom skakel, en gevolglik word 3D eindige element modelle gebruik in hierdie studie. Om die akkuraatheid van die eindige element model te beproef word ʼn prototipe glip rotor optimaal ontwerp deur middel van eindige element analise. Die glip rotor vorm saam met ʼn bestaande permanente magneet rotor ʼn werwelstroom skakel. Vir hierdie ontwerp word twee werwelstroom skakel topologieë gebruik, en met mekaar vergelyk. Die topologie wat beter presteer word gebruik vir die vervaardiging van die glip rotor. ʼn Vergelyking van die gemete waardes van die vervaardigde werwelstroom skakel en die resultate van die 3D eindige element simulasies dui daarop dat die 3D eindige element modellering ʼn baie goeie voorspelling van die werklikheid is. ʼn Analitiese model vir die werwelstroom skakel onder lae glip toestande is ontwikkel deur gebruik te maak van observasies uit die 3D eindige element simulasies. Die analitiese model is baie afhangklik van die modellering van die werwelstrome se stroompaaie, iets wat moeilik is om akkuraat te bepaal. ʼn Benadering word gemaak wat die akkurate modulering van die stroompaaie moontlik maak vir verskillende aksiale lengtes. Die analitiese model word dan gebruik vir vinnige optimering van die werwelstroom skakel se ontwerp vir twee verskillende werwelstroom skakel topologieë. Die geoptimeerde ontwerp wat die beste resultate toon word vergelyk met bestaande permanente magneet glip generators. Dit word gewys dat die werwelstroom skakel die potensiaal het om ʼn uitvoerbare alternatief tot die permanente magneet glip generator te wees, vir gebruik in glip-sinkroon permanente magneet generators. Die werwelstroom skakel toon baie goeie draaimoment teenoor glip gedrag, en het geen vertandings of las draaimoment rimpeling nie. Voordat die werwelstroom generator ʼn realistiese kompeteerder teenoor die bestaande glip-sinkroon tegnologie is, moet daar verbeterde vervaardigings maniere gevind word vir die voorgestelde glip rotor.

Measuring and controlling the torque in rotating systems is essential to prevent disruptions, damage, wear and other kinds of damage that the machine may suffer due to overexertion in particular axis. However, make this measurement in full operation of the machine / system is not a simple task, mainly because of the needing of extract information under rotating shaft. Currently they are used measurements with elements attached to the shaft that require electrical power and also transmit data, either through slip rings, transformers or telemetry systems. Thus, this work proposes the use of magnets coupled to the shaft and a magnetic field measuring system with hall effect sensors. The relative movement between the magnets resulting from deformation due to twisting will increase or reduce the intensity of the magnetic field. By measuring the intensity of resultant field, it is possible to determine the radial deflection of the shaft. The acquisition system has computer interface developed in Labview. Static and dynamic tests were carried out in the laboratory in order to validate the technique developed and compare the instrument developed with techniques already widespread in the industrial environment. The results showed the efficiency of the technique and point to the applications of this dynamic torque wrench by Hall effect. / O presente trabalho tem como objetivo o desenvolvimento de um transdutor de torque em eixos girantes através de uma nova abordagem, usando ímãs de neodímio e sensor de efeito Hall. Medir e controlar o torque em sistemas rotativos é essencial, para prevenir rupturas, danos, desgastes e demais avarias que a máquina possa sofrer devido ao esforço excessivo em determinado eixo. Contudo, realizar essa medição em plena operação da máquina/sistema não é uma tarefa simples, devido principalmente à necessidade de se extrair informações sob eixo em rotação. Atualmente são utilizados sistemas de medição com elementos fixados ao eixo que necessitam de alimentação elétrica e também transmitir dados, seja por meio de anéis coletores, transformadores ou sistemas de telemetria. Assim, neste trabalho é proposto o uso de ímãs acoplados ao eixo e um sistema de medição de campo magnético com sensores de efeito hall. O movimento relativo entre os ímãs devido a deformação decorrente da torção, irão aumentar ou reduzir a intensidade do campo magnético. Ao medir a intensidade desse campo resultante, será possível determinar a deformação radial do eixo. O sistema de aquisição conta com interface computacional desenvolvida em Labview. Foram realizados ensaios estáticos e dinâmicos, em laboratório com o intuito de se validar a técnica desenvolvida e comparar o instrumento desenvolvido com técnicas já difundidas no ambiente industrial. Os resultados mostraram a eficiência da técnica e apontam para as aplicações deste torquímetro dinâmico por efeito Hall.
