Development and testing of high-reliability and high-efficiency motors for aerospace applications is becoming a key dependency for the introduction of the More/All Electric Aircraft.The project will develop real-time imaging of motor flux density characteristics, addressing an industry requirement for a scanner that can be modified to arbitrary stator/armature diameters. Research will focus on flux measurement control, scan rate of flux sensors and advanced post-processing techniques. The principal project output will be a marketable electro-magnetic flux scanner (EMFIS) which is unique in offering a linear response across a broad field range (pT-T) due to the use of an innovative graphene sensor.An ability to interrogate the 2D/3D field characteristics of electric motors and other electromagnetic (EM) devices would offer significant tangible benefits throughout the design, manufacturing and qualifying process. There are currently no solutions for mapping the magnetic field produced by an energised stator or armature in 2D or 3D. Imaging the field configuration directly would lead to an inherently marketable scanner and push the aerospace sector towards lighter, more reliable and higher efficiency motors.EMFIS development would generate manifold benefits, visualisation of the flux characteristics of an EM device for the first time (currently only possible with FEA simulations) would offer unprecedented insight into magnetic saturation, facilitating substantially improved motor efficiencies and power densities through enhanced design and allowing un-rivalled reverse-engineering and fault-finding services to be developed.The technology would also lead to real-time health monitoring services through the use of embedded sensors, due to the robust nature of graphene and the small device footprint sensors could be integrated into aerospace motors, adding significant value to existing motor products.

用于航空航天应用的高可靠性和高效率电机的开发和测试正在成为引入更多/全电动飞机的关键依赖。该项目将开发电机磁通密度特性的实时成像，满足行业对可修改为任意定子/电枢直径的扫描仪的需求。研究将集中在通量测量控制、通量传感器的扫描速率和先进的后处理技术。主要项目成果将是一款适销对路的电磁通量扫描仪 (EMFIS)，由于使用了创新的石墨烯传感器，该扫描仪在宽磁场范围 (pT-T) 内提供线性响应，其独特之处在于。询问电动机和其他电磁 (EM) 设备的 2D/3D 磁场特性的能力将在整个设计、制造和鉴定过程中带来显着的切实好处。目前尚无用于以 2D 或 3D 形式绘制通电定子或电枢产生的磁场的解决方案。直接对现场配置进行成像将产生本质上具有市场价值的扫描仪，并推动航空航天领域转向更轻、更可靠和更高效率的电机。EMFIS 的开发将产生多方面的好处，首次实现 EM 设备磁通特性的可视化（目前只能通过 FEA 模拟实现）将提供对磁饱和的前所未有的洞察力，通过增强的设计和改进，促进大幅提高电机效率和功率密度。 允许开发无与伦比的逆向工程和故障查找服务。由于石墨烯的坚固性，该技术还将通过使用嵌入式传感器提供实时健康监测服务，并且小型设备占用空间传感器可以集成到航空航天电机中，从而为现有电机产品增加显着的价值。
