The article analyzes the parameters of various configurations concentrated windings for application in high-power geared and direct drive wind generators. It is specified that the concentrated windings advantages over distributed ones can be fully realized by choosing the right values of pole pairs and the slots number. It is shown that the choice of the winding should take into account not only the highest winding factor, but also to the star of slots for the analysis of the harmonic contents of the magnetomotive force (MMF) and electromotive force (EMF), cogging torque and load torque pulsation. Windings with performance conditions Z=12+6k, 2p=Z ±2, k=0,1,2,3,…having an odd number of pole pairs are recommended for high-power wind generators.

Low-power machines were commonly considered as the main application field of concentrated windings. However, a lot of paper have recently been published, which address both the theory of these windings and specific cases of their application for large synchronous machines. The article presents an analysis of the parameters of concentrated windings having various configurations intended for use in high-power gear and gearless wind generators. In assessing the winding, not only the high winding factor value was taken into account, but also the star of slot EMFs, harmonic spectra of the MMFs and EMFs, the cogging torque component and torque pulsation under load, as well as emerging losses. It is shown that the well-known advantages of concentrated windings over distributed windings can be fully realized by choosing the appropriated numbers of slots and poles.

Purpose – Due to high electromagnetic torque at low speed, vernier machines are suitable for direct-drive applications such as electric vehicles and wind power generators. The purpose of this paper is to present an exact sub-domain model for analytically predicting the open-circuit magnetic field of permanent magnet vernier machine (PMVM) including tooth tips. The entire field domain is divided into five regions, viz. magnets, air gap, slot openings, slots, and flux-modulation pole slots (FMPs). The model accounts for the influence of interaction between PMs, FMPs and slots, and radial/parallel magnetization. Design/methodology/approach – Magnetic field distributions for slot and air-gap, flux linkage, back-EMF and cogging torque waveforms are obtained from the analytical method and validated by finite element analysis (FEA). Findings – It is found that the developed sub-domain model including tooth tips is very accurate and is applicable to PMVM having any combination of slots/FMPs/PMs. Originality/value – The main contributions include: accurate sub-domain model for PMVM is proposed for open-circuit including tooth-tip which cannot be accounted for in literature; the model accounts the interaction between flux modulation pole (FMP) and slot; developed sub-domain model is accurate and applicable to any slot/FMP/PM combinations; and it has investigated the influence of FMP/slot opening width/height on cogging torque.

Numerous unexplained failures of rotating machinery by nonsynchronous shaft whirling point to a possible driving mechanism or source of energy not identified by previously existing theory. A majority of these failures have been in machines characterized by overhung disks (or disks located close to one end of a bearing span) and/or high power and load torque. This paper gives exact solutions to the nonlinear differential equations of motion for a rotor having both of these characteristics and shows that high ratios of driving torque to damping can produce nonsynchronous whirling with destructively large amplitudes. Solutions are given for two cases: (1) viscous load torque and damping, and (2) load torque and damping proportional to the second power of velocity (aerodynamic case). Criteria are given for avoiding the torquewhirl condition.
