Analysis and design of a magnetic bearing

Magnetic bearings have recently begun to be employed in rotating machinery for vibration
reduction, elimination of oil lubrication problems and prevention of failures. This thesis presents an analysis and design of an experimental model of a magnetic suspension system. The magnetic bearing, its control circuit and the supported object
are modeled. Formulas are developed for the position and current stiffness of the bearing and the analogy with a mechanical system is shown. The transfer function is obtained for the control and experimental results are presented for the double pole one axis magnetic support system. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Electrical and Computer Engineering, Department of / Graduate
