This paper presents general design considerations of a partitioned stator switched flux hybrid magnet memory machine (PS-SF-HMMM). The armature windings and permanent magnets (PMs) are placed on two separate stators, respectively, in the PS-SF-HMMM, and thus both high torque density and wide flux regulation capability can be obtained. The topology and working principle of the machine are introduced briefly first, and then different magnet arrangements and stator/rotor pole combinations are investigated. In addition, various design parameters are optimized based on finite element (FE) methods. Finally, a prototype is fabricated to experimentally validate the FE results.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to propose a novel axial field flux-switching machine with sandwiched permanent magnets. It is one of the most efficient machines which is appropriate for high-torque and low-speed direct-drive applications. The proposed model is equipped with an advanced phase-group concentrated-coil winding to obtain a unity displacement winding factor. Two configurations of the proposed motors with 6-stator-slot (S)/10-rotor-pole (P) and 12S/19P are investigated. These two structures are compared with optimized a conventional axial-field flux-switching permanent-magnet (CAFFSPM) machine. Unity displacement winding factor increases the back-EMF and electromagnetic torque. Moreover, the prototype 12S/19P motor is built to verify the design. Design/methodology/approachThe torque equation is obtained and the dimensions of the two proposed motors are determined. Some specific design issues, including the stator/rotor pole sandwiching pole angle, the stator tooth angle and the rotor pole angle have been optimized to minimize the cogging torque while maintaining the high torque density by means of response surface methodology (RSM) and 3-D finite element model of the machine. FindingsTo improve the performance, especially at high torque density, low cogging torque and high level of fault-tolerant capability, the 12S/19P axial field flux-switching sandwiched permanent-magnet (AFFSSPM) motor is proposed. Based on the optimized design, a prototype of the 12S/19P AFFSSPM motor is fabricated and tested. It is found that the experimental results validate the 3-D finite element method (FEM) simulation results. Originality/valueThe AFFSSPM motor is one of the most efficient motors, but the 12S/19P AFFSSPM motor with sandwiched permanent magnet and unity displacement winding factor has not been specially reported to date. Thus, in this paper, the authors report on optimal design of a novel axial flux-switching sandwiched permanent-magnet machine for electric vehicles and fabricate a prototype of the 12S/19P AFFSSPM motor.

Simulation Results

In this paper, a novel dual-stator permanent magnet machine (DsPmSynM) with low cost and high torque density is designed. The winding part of the DsPmSynM adopts phase-group concentrated-coil windings, and the permanent magnets are arranged by spoke-type. Firstly, the winding structure reduces the amount of copper at the end of the winding. Secondly, the electromagnetic torque ripple of DsPmSynM is suppressed by reducing the cogging torque. Furthermore, the dynamic performance of DsPmSynM is studied. Finally, the experimental results are compared with the simulation results.

Electric machines with high torque density are needed in many applications, such as electric vehicles, electric robotics, electric ships, electric aircraft, etc. and they can avoid planetary gears thus reducing manufacturing costs. This paper presents a novel axial-radial flux permanent magnet (ARFPM) machine with high torque density. The proposed ARFPM machine integrates both axial-flux and radial-flux machine topologies in a compact space, which effectively improves the copper utilization of the machine. First, the radial rotor can balance the large axial forces on axial rotors and prevent them from deforming due to the forces. On the other hand, the machine adopts Halbach-array permanent magnets (PMs) on the rotors to suppress air-gap flux density harmonics. Also, the Halbach-array PMs can reduce the total attracted force on axial rotors. The operational principle of the ARFPM machine was investigated and analyzed. Then, 3D finite-element analysis (FEA) was conducted to show the merits of the ARFPM machine. Demonstration results with different parameters are compared to obtain an optimal structure. These indicated that the proposed ARFPM machine with Halbach-array PMs can achieve a more sinusoidal back electromotive force (EMF). In addition, a comparative analysis was conducted for the proposed ARFPM machine. The machine was compared with a conventional axial-flux permanent magnet (AFPM) machine and a radial-flux permanent magnet (RFPM) machine based on the same dimensions. This showed that the proposed ARFPM machine had the highest torque density and relatively small torque ripple.

Purpose – The paper purposes a novel SFPM machine topology with radial and circumferential permanent magnets (PMs). The paper aims to discuss this issue. Design/methodology/approach – In order to reduce the flux leakage in the stator-outer region and consequently achieve higher magnetic material utilization in switched flux permanent magnet (SFPM) machine, a novel topology with radial and circumferential PMs is proposed. This topology (SFRCPM) has the same structure as conventional SFPM (CSFPM) machine except of the additional set of radially magnetized PMs located around the back iron and surrounded by a laminated ring frame. Using finite element analysis (FEA) the influence of the design parameters on the performance is investigated in order to obtain an effective optimization procedure. Internal and external rotor SFRCPM machines with either NdFeB or ferrite magnets are investigated, optimized and compared with the CSFPM machine having the same size, copper loss and stator/rotor pole combination. Findings – It is concluded that comparing SFRCPM with its CSFPM machine counterpart, internal rotor SFRCPM machine can achieve high PM flux-linkage per magnet volume, however reduced slot area leads to low output torque, whereas external rotor SFRCPM machine can produce higher torque and torque per magnet volume. Originality/value – This paper proposes a novel SFPM machine topology.

Underwater Propulsion

Permanent magnet couplings (PMCs) are widely used in underwater propulsion because it can solve the deep-sea sealing problem effectively. In this paper, a new type of conical permanent magnet coupling (CPMC) is proposed, which is able to match the tail shape of the underwater vehicle and make full use of the tail space to increase pull-out torque capability. Based on the three-dimensional finite element method (3D-FEM), the electromagnetic characteristics of an initial model for CPMC are analyzed. In order to facilitate the design and optimization of CPMC, an equivalent three-dimensional (3D) analytical method for the pull-out torque calculation is presented, and its accuracy is verified by comparison with the 3D finite element results. Finally, the influence of design parameters such as half-cone angle, pole pair, pole arc coefficient and permanent magnet thickness on maximum pull-out torque and torque density of CPMC is analyzed, and a preliminary optimization model is obtained.

The Magnetic Field

This paper presents finite-element analysis (FEA) of the magnetic field of a magnetic gear mechanism. An external type magnetic gear mechanism, which consists of two identical magnetic gears with sector-shaped permanent magnets, is introduced first. Then, the magnetostatic field distribution and transmitted torque of the magnetic gear mechanism are simulated by a commercial FEA package Ansoft/ Maxwell. Next, the effects of design parameters, including the air-gap length, the number of magnetic pole pairs, and the height of permanent magnets, on the maximum transmitted torque are discussed. The results of this work are beneficial to the design of magnetic gear mechanisms.

This paper discusses about design of hollow-rotor Brushless DC (BLDC) motor. A conventional BLDC motor has more leakage flux circling at the end of the permanent magnet that will limit torque. To overcome this problem, a new BLDC model known as hollow-rotor is proposed. The objective of this research is to design a hollow-rotor motor that will have higher torque density compared to conventional BLDC motor using Finite Element Method (FEM). In addition, performance analysis of the proposed hollow-rotor has also been carried out. For validation, the result of FEM is compared with the measurement result. It shows that, the simulation result has good agreement with the measurement result. For comparison, hollow-rotor shows higher torque density compared to conventional BLDC motor. As a conclusion, this paper provides guidelines and analysis in designing high torque hollow-rotor motor.
