WIND TURBINE MAGNETS
High-performance Magnets for Wind Energy Systems
In wind turbines, permanent magnets are vital to the generator itself. They would mainly contribute by helping the wind turbine be more efficient in converting mechanical energy to electrical energy due to a consistent magnetic field produced. Using permanent magnets working with the rotor eliminates the complications of external power supplies or the excitation system used in most traditional electric motors. This allows for improving the general efficiency of the engine.
Challenges in Wind Turbine Magnet Environments
- High-temperature resistance: Magnets must have exceptional high-temperature resistance since wind turbines often operate in regions with alternating high and low temperatures. Our SMCO-made wind turbine magnets do not significantly lose their magnetic capabilities even at temperatures as high as 200°C.
- Corrosion Resistant: Wind turbines are often erected in challenging outdoor settings subjected to corrosive conditions and dampness. Because SMCO magnets are inherently very corrosion-resistant, air moisture and humidity will not affect their magnetic function. Despite neodymium magnets’ poor resistance to corrosion, surface coatings like zinc or nickel may successfully prevent corrosion.
- Durability: Since wind turbines usually have a 20-year lifetime, the magnets must be more robust and have consistent magnetic characteristics over extended usage periods. Our wind turbine magnets’ performance promotes wind turbines’ long-term, effective functioning since they are designed to resist prolonged mechanical and environmental stress without significantly losing their magnetic qualities.
