Abstract
The paper presents an optimization procedure for eddy current brakes, considering both copper and solid iron rotors. The rotor geometry optimization has been performed based on analytical solutions and 3D finite elements combined to sensitivity analysis technique. Optimum dimensions of copper parts and solid iron slots have been investigated.
