Purpose The purpose of this paper is to compare the methods of calculating the parameters of air-cored stator flux permanent magnet generator and to compare these results with the measurements of the designed and manufactured generator. The generator is to be designed for operation in a wind power plant. Design/methodology/approach An analytical method and 2D and 3D finite element methods (FEMs) were used to calculate the parameters of the coreless permanent magnet axial generator. The analytical method and 2D FEM were applied to individual cross-sections through the air gap of the machine. After the design and construction of the generator and measuring station, the results of calculations and measurements were compared. Findings The results of investigated calculation methods and measurements were found to be mutually compatible. Analytical methods and 2D FEM required proper interpretation of the results when comparing them with the 3D FEM. The results of the measurements and calculations showed the usefulness of the generator for operation in a wind power plant. Originality/value Full comparison of results of 2D and 3D calculations with the results of the measurements on the machine model confirmed the usefulness of fast 2D methods for the analysis of coreless generators. The results differed by the effects of leakage inductance of windings’ front connections. The application of an axial generator designed with the described methods in a wind turbine showed its proper operation.

<p>This paper aims to design and simulate an Electrical Permanent Magnet Generator (EPMG) for rural area wind power plant. The generators available in the market mostly are a kind of high speed induction generator which requires high rotational speed and an electricity to generate a magnetic field. In this project, a radial flux generator is designed to have a low speed rotation using permanent magnet type Neodymium Iron Boron (NdFeB). Software used for designing is Finite Element Method (FEM) Magnet software basis. The model also examined with Simulink/Matlab environment. Extensive modifications are applied to get optimum result by changing generator diameter, number of coils, the copper wire diameter, number of poles, and used slots. The simulation results obtained generator speed 500rpm, the average series voltage is 145 Vrms, the generator requires 18cm diameter, number of turn for each coil is 55, diameter of the copper wire used is 0.6mm, and number of poles is 8 pairs and 12 unit slots.</p>

- In conventional power system, synchronous generator which characterized by high-speed operating condition has been widely implemented. However, those high-speed synchronous machines are not suitable for a power plant powered by renewable energy (RE) due to uncertain feature of renewable resources. To overcome this problem, an electrical machine with low-speed characteristic is required for ensuring stable operation and maintaining output power of the RE based distribution generation (DG) unit. In this paper, a low-speed permanent magnet synchronous generator (LS-PMSG) is designed and implemented. To realize low-speed operation capability, the multi-stages permanent magnet synhcronous machine is proposed. The multi-stages machine equipped with two stators and three rotors construction. From the experimental results, it was monitored that output voltage of single rotor of the designed machine was 35 V. Moreover, to increase the output voltage to 50 V, those three rotors can be connected in series.
