    On the monoblock vs segmented magnets, I would recommend using magnaview film to see if the magnet is segmented inside of the external plating. The other thing to check is the electrical conductivity of the magnet to see if they added anything to the magnet that would reduce the electrical conductivity before sintering it. Both methods could be used to reduce eddy currents.

      As I understand it, rare-earth magnets use sintered material (not poured into a mold in a liquid state). So perhaps a nonconductive binder (instead of sintering) is possible, in which case there would be no eddy losses on any axis. (The counterpoint is that such a structure would not benefit from being plated...so this may not be the case.)

      @@satoshimanabe2493 the plating is typically alternating layers of nickel an copper and while I agree that eddy currents may be generated in the plating it is very difficult to build up eddy currents into very thin conductive sheets. I have spent a lot of time using induction power to evaporate metal in a vacuum chamber and bulk blocks are much easier to get thermal power into than thin conductive sheets. This is also why laminations are used. Lastly the plating would still be essential as Neodynimum based magnets are highly succeptialbe to moisture based corrosion.

    Great video, thank you so much for putting this for free!
    Some thoughts on the non segmented magnets: First of all, yes there are eddy current losses in the magnets but they are quite small compared to iron and copper losses. Still they can be problematic since they are the heat source in a temperature sensitive part. One problem with the segmentation is that you will lose some torque because of having less magnet material in the rotor. This will make the motor a bit less efficient. I think that this loss of efficiency could be more than the additional eddy current losses. However, these eddy current losses are mainly due to the current harmonics caused by the PWM. This means that you can drastically influence the magnet losses by the PWM. Maybe Tesla optimized their PWM in order to reduce the magnet losses for not having to segment the magnets.

    I think the magnets issue is so that tesla intentionally makes the motor hotter so that it can use that heat to keep the battery warm in colder weather. It is really the only motor that is running most of the time and especially on the highway. So, there is a lot of heat loss in colder climates. Basically, they don't have to add a heater, but then they can modulate the cooling for hotter climates, or even shift the work to the induction motors. I am just guessing, but I'm usually right.

    • @neilfromclearwaterfl81
      @neilfromclearwaterfl81 26 дней назад +4

      It's an interesting solution but... The tiny pin may prevent a small problem from quickly becoming a bigger one however at the power and torque levels involved once that bearing gets grabby its going to spin unless the operator notices the change in sound when it starts to fail and has it serviced expeditiously. Time will tell whether having that pin tear loose causes more damage than it prevents. Hopefully the MTBF of those bearings exceeds the half to one million mile operational life expectation of the vehicle.
      I can see that spring loaded pin failing and causing damage similar to other implementations using spring located pins that we've had for some time in pneumatic and hydraulic tools. If the damage isn't too catastrophic sometimes I've been able to just clean up the seating area and drill a new hole for the locating pin and spring while other times its weld and machine a new surface or replace that part of the housing depending on the cost of the part and the value of the unit or perhaps the cost of the downtime. Like Sandy said:. so anyways... ;>

    Induction and PM synchronous motors sharing stator design is good, but not new - Tesla has done that since their first PM motor, in the Model 3. Like the Model 3, the axial lengths are different, to suit different flux density and power requirements. Long before Tesla, Remy (now BorgWarner) offered their HVH series (which is also bar-wound with hairpins) with a choice of induction or PM rotors using exactly the same stator. It's good to see Tesla continuing this practice, and finally catching up to use bar winding.

      @rwhirsch Yes, but I think the reasons might not be instantly obvious. Is it simply cost savings? And is that simply to make the cars more affordable? Or cheaper to run? Or durability? Or better performance? And is that more power or greater efficiency? Tesla has greater integration in their engineering teams than anyone else, and I will bet there are many conversations that go, "Hey! I gained X% more something!" to which another engineer says, "Did you consider XYZ?" ...."Oh shit! Back to the drawing board" From which they end up with a third option that solves both problems. This is why I don't think many manufacturers are going to catch up all that quickly. Would love to see how the latest Mach-E compares to the first version. In particular the thermal management was a dog's breakfast. Even Ford admitted they missed an awful lot of details on the Mach-E generally.

    The segmented magnets make great sense if the truck is only operating in hot climates.
    But Tesla uses motor inefficiencies to generate heat to put into the heat pump that keeps the battery and cab warm.
    It may well be that when they run the calculations, the extra heat is required more often and the solid batteries allow this to be generated faster and at less electrical cost.
    Rapid warm up and keeping the battery warm is very important. Not to mention creature comfort.

    Munro, are we sure there are significant eddy currents in a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor?
    The whole point of the word Synchronous is that the magnetic pole from the stator is rotating in phase with the rotor’s permanent magnetic field poles.
    If there is significant pole slipping (relative movement between stator and rotor) then I think there is a problem in design or control systems.
    Relative movement between the field and conductor is required for an eddy current.

    • @kazedcat
      @kazedcat 26 дней назад +3

      We know heating is a problem that is why they opened up the end plate to get oil in. So there must be significant heating losses happening in the rotor near the magnets. Otherwise it would be much easier to fabricate the rotor all sealed up.

    • @imconsequetau5275
      @imconsequetau5275 25 дней назад

      The magnetic field is still passed from pole to pole in the stator. Even when three or so poles overlap per winding, there is some field fluctuation passing through the rotor. So it's like amplitude modulation.

    More than just the non-segmented magnets, having that rotor end plate run to the rotor OD would generate unnecessary eddy current losses since they would be exposed to some of the magnetic flux from the stator field. In terms of the magnets, I'd be surprised if Tesla weren't on top of the gains segmented magnets can offer and I'd suspect they were not that significant, especially since the magnetic flux at part load operation is pretty modest compared with full torque so the losses would be not huge for most of the time.
