Plateforme de conceptiond’actionneurs :méthodes et outils pour lepré-dimensionnement d’actionneurs

摘要

Contactors and relays are used in many devices for monitoring and remote controlling. Mostof them are equipped with electromagnetic actuators, which are produced in large quantities. The environmentalrequirements on efficiency and energy consumption have become more and more strict. Thedesign of these actuators is therefore an important issue. This thesis focuses on the development of adesign platform dedicated to the pre-sizing of electromagnetic actuators. This platform is based on theimplementation of very fast and sufficiently accurate modeling methods. The first part is devoted to theresolution of linear and nonlinear magnetostatic equations by the coupling between boundary integralmethod and reluctance network method. The evaluation of global quantities such as the magnetic fluxflowing through a coil and the force is investigated. The results are validated on a rotating bistable relay.The second part concerns the multi-physics simulation of the component in its environment by takinginto account the mechanical and electrical aspects. A feasibility study by optimization is performed bothfor the component alone and for the whole component-system. Finally, a general modeling method isproposed with the presentation of an original and efficient coupling between the finite element methodsand boundary integrals.
