Abstract
Topology optimization is one of the mathematical methods for finding the optimal structure of electrical machinery. Because topology optimization can make a design with much higher degree of freedom in terms of structure than other optimization methods, there is a possibility for achieving a completely new shape that is not limited to the conventional model. The optimized structure is strongly dependent on the characteristic function which is an explicit function with respect to the design variable. To identify the practical topology in which the gray scale elements do not exist as much as possible, Heaviside function is suitable to suppress the generation of gray scale. In this paper, Heaviside function is applied to the IH equipment problem, and both influences of the difference between single and multiple design domain and the difference of the constraint value of the magnetic body volume on optimal solution are particularly investigated.
