An Analysis of Permanent Magnet Eddy Current Braking System

Abstract

In the operation of any machinery the most primary safety system is the braking system. The most basic designs of the braking system involve the conversion of kinetic energy to heat energy by friction. This is accomplished by friction between two rubbing surfaces. These brakes pose several problems i.e. significant wear, fading, complex and slow actuation etc. This paper is an attempt to solve these problems, where a contactless magnetic brake has been developed by using a metals disc which will conduct eddy currents generated by magnets and the same is analyzed by using COMSOL software.
