MANATEE v1.05.04 is available
The release 1.05.04 of MANATEE is now available!
This new release introduces the following features :
- Possibility to introduce a non-zero DC current component
- Possibility to inject harmonic currents in DQ frame
- DFIM control with specified power factor and mechanical power for wind turbine application
- Effect of boundary conditions (clamped, simply supported, free) on analytical calculation of natural frequencies
- Possibility to run a sensitivity analysis on a variable speed simulation
This release also includes the beta version of the complete GUI (simulation and machine setup).
- GUI main project page
You can find the complete changes list of this new version on our website.
Zoom on MANATEE feature
plot_VS_Fr_spectrogram (resp. plot_VS_Ft_spectrogram) allows to draw a spectrogram (spectrum at variable speed) of radial (resp. tangential) magnetic forces for each wavenumber. This allows to identify which type of magnetic force wave is present at a given speed and frequency.
In this example of a squirrel cage induction machine with Zs=36, Zr=28 and p=3, one can see that the odd wavenumber spectra do not contain any force wave; in particular, there is no unbalanced magnetic pull. One can see that the largest force waves are r=0 and r=2p=6. Two force waves of wavenumbers r=2 and r=8 can be also noted close to 2 kHz at 3500 rpm.
- Radial force harmonics spectrogram
- plot_VS_Fr_spectrogram
Alternatively, one can also draw the spectrogram of a given wavenumber using plot_VS_Fr_spectrogram_order. This time, the spectrogram contains negative frequencies that account for the different propagation directions of magnetic force waves.
- Radial force spectrogram of spatial order +/- 2
- plot_VS_Fr_spetrogram_order
