The Impact of Coil Winding Angle on the Force of DC Solenoid Electromagnetic Actuator

Anotace: This paper presents the research on the influence of coil parameter on the force of DC electromagnetic actuator. The coil parameter discussed in the paper is the angle between the windings. The research method is based on analyzing the magnetic path of DC electromagnetic actuator and on comparison of analytically obtained results with the numerical simulation results. Transient numerical simulation of DC electromagnetic actuator has been performed on the 2D axial-symmetric model using the Finite Element Method (FEM). The main contribution is the coil winding angle impact on the force of DC electromagnetic actuator. The results showed that, by reducing the coil winding angle, it is possible to increase the electromagnetic force, reduce the coil dimensions, and thus the dimensions of electromagnetic actuator.
