Selection of Soft Magnetic Composite Material for Electrical Machines using 3D FEA Simulations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper analyzes the impact of Soft Magnetic Composite (SMC) material properties on the losses and efficiency of electrical machines and presents a method for SMC grade selection. Three electric machines are simulated using 3D Finite Element Analysis (FEA): radial flux, axial flux and transverse flux Permanent Magnet (PM) machines. The core losses in SMC parts are calculated using a hybrid method that includes the joule loss of the induced 3D eddy currents in the SMC stator core as well as geometry-independent losses calculated by analytical equations based on toroid tester data. The results show that the selection of SMC material solely based on one given material property such as, permeability, core loss or resistivity results in suboptimal motor performance. On the other hand, the simulation results show that an SMC material with balanced properties achieved the highest efficiency and best overall performance. Finally, an SMC core with balanced properties was developed and tested in a toroidal measurement setup.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
