Moreover, the force modeling of the magnetic levitation system, including the axial thrust-force permanent magnet bearing (PMB) and the active magnetic bearing (AMB), is conducted, and results indicate that the magnetic forces could stably levitate the flywheel (FW) rotor.
In order to complete accurate control of the magnetic levitation system, the data acquisition (DAQ) board can collect the displacement variations of the FW rotor on five DoFs, and then the main control system developed on a DSP chip and an FPGA chip can finish the signal processing and code programming.
Moreover, the magnetic levitation system, including an axial thrust-force PMB, an axial AMB, and two radial AMB units, could levitate the FW rotor to avoid friction, so the maintenance loss and the vibration displacement of the FW rotor are both mitigated.
As a vital energy conversion equipment, the flywheel energy storage system (FESS) [, , , , ] could efficiently realize the mutual conversion between mechanical energy and electrical energy. It has the advantages of high conversion efficiency [6, 7], low negative environmental impact [8, 9], and high power density [10, 11].
However, the mechanical bearing is used as a supporting method of the FW rotor. In literature [29, 30], an FW rotor with 5440 kg and 2 m diameter was used in a FESS, and a combined 5 degrees of freedom (DoFs) AMB was applied to levitate the FW rotor in axial and radial axes.
In general, the flywheel rotor is suspended by the journal bearings, which is a low-cost suspension method [17, 18], but vibration and shock could affect the stability and lifespan of the FESS at high rotating speeds.
