Optimal Design of Angular Displacement Sensor with Shared Magnetic Field Based on the Magnetic Equivalent Loop Method

摘要

Angular displacement sensor with shared magnetic field has strong environmental adaptability and high measurement accuracy. However, its 3-D structure is multi-pole double-layer structure, using time stepping finite element method (TSFEM) to optimize the structure is time-consuming and uneconomical. Therefore, a magnetic equivalent loop method (MELM) is proposed to simplify the optimal design of sensors. By reasonably setting the node position, the mechanical structure parameters, winding coefficients and input voltage of the sensor are integrated into a mathematical model to calculate of the induced voltage. The calculation results are compared with the simulation results, and a sensor prototype is made to test the optimized effect of the MELM.
