This paper presents a new structure of permanent magnet flux switching machine (PMFSM) with multiple different sizes of rotor pole width. A robust single piece salient rotor is used to modulate and switch the flux linkage polarity in the armature winding and become the fundamental mechanism of these types of machines. The methodology of two-dimensional (2-D) finite element analysis (FEA) is used to evaluate the electromagnetic performance of coil test including flux line distributions, three phase flux linkage, cogging torque as well as induced emf. The resulting performances are analysed based on the variety of rotor pole width to meet the requirement of direct drive propulsion of Electric Vehicles (EVs).

<p>This paper discusses the performance of three and five-phase double stator slotted rotor permanent magnet generator (DSSR-PMG). The objective of this research is to propose  five-phase DSSR-PMG structure that could minimize output voltage ripple compared to three phase. In this research Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is used to simulate the characteristic of the three and five-phase permanent magnet generator at various speeds. The characteristic of back-EMF, flux linkage, cogging torque and flux density for three and five-phase configurations is presented. As a result, five-phase DSSR-PMG shows a lower cogging  torque and voltage ripple compared to three-phase. The cogging torque for five-phase is 80% lower than three-phase DSSR-PMG and the ripple voltage (peak to peak) of back-EMF in five-phase is 2.3% compared to the three-phase DSSR-PMG which is 55%.</p>

A three phase, electrical excitation flux-switching (EEFS) brushless ac machine is proposed, its electromagnetic performance, viz., the phase flux-linkage and back-EMF waveforms, the torque density, the electromagnetic torque, and the torque-current characteristic, are evaluated based on finite element analysis. An EEFS machine exhibits sinusoidal flux-linkage and back-EMF waveforms. Compared with a hybrid excitation flux-switching (HEFS) machine, when de-excitation at fault is needed, the torque density of EEFS machine is ~20% larger than that of a HEFS machine with the same armature and field current copper loss.

Field excitation flux switching machines (FEFSMs) in which their torque performance generated by interaction between armature and field excitation (FE) coils have been widely designed and developed for various applications. In this regard, FEFSM with salient rotor is considered the most suitable candidate for high speed applications because of their advantages of flux controllability, and robust due to single piece of rotor structure. However, the existing FEFSM with overlapped armature and FEC windings lead to increment of copper loss, motor size and material cost. In addition, the declination of torque and power densities due to high rotor weight needs to be improved. In this paper, performance comparisons of four FEFSM topologies particularly emphasis on non-overlap armature coil and FEC windings placed on the stator with segmental rotor are investigated. The performances, including flux linkage, back-emf, flux strengthening, flux line, flux distribution, cogging torque, torque and power of the proposed motor are analysed and compared using 2D finite element analysis (FEA) thru JMAG Designer version 15. As a result, segmental rotor has produced shorter flux paths, while non-overlapping windings has reduced the copper consumption. Finally, the best combination of stator slot-pole configurations is 12S-6P which provide high flux linkage, high torque and power of 0.0412 Wb, 0.77 Nm and 0.26 kW, respectively.

This paper presents a novel topology of dual airgap radial flux permanent magnet vernier machine (PMVM) in order to obtain a higher torque per magnet volume and similar average torque compared to a conventional PMVM machine. The proposed machine contains two stators and a sandwiched yokeless rotor. The yokeless rotor helps to reduce the magnet volume by providing an effective flux linkage in the stator windings. This effective flux linkage improved the average torque of the proposed machine. The competitiveness of the proposed vernier machine was validated using 2D finite element analysis under the same machine volume as that of conventional vernier machine. Moreover, cogging torque, torque ripples, torque density, losses, and efficiency performances also favored the proposed topology.

This paper discusses the design and analysis of a high-harmonic injection-based field excitation scheme for the brushless operation of wound field synchronous machines (WFSMs) in order to achieve a higher efficiency. The proposed scheme involves two inverters. One of these inverters provides the three-phase fundamental-harmonic current to the armature winding, whereas the second inverter injects the single-phase high-harmonic i.e., 6th harmonic current in this case, to the neutral-point of the Y-connected armature winding. The injection of the high-harmonic current in the armature winding develops the high-harmonic magnetomotive force (MMF) in the air gap of the machine beside the fundamental. The high-harmonic MMF induces the harmonic current in the excitation winding of the rotor, whereas the fundamental MMF develops the main armature field. The harmonic current is rectified to inject the direct current (DC) into the main rotor field winding. The main armature and rotor fields, when interacting with each other, produce torque. Finite element analysis (FEA) is carried out in order to develop a 4-pole 24-slot machine and investigate it using a 6th harmonic current injection for the rotor field excitation to both attain a brushless operation and analyze its electromagnetic performance. Later on, the performance of the proposed topology is compared with the typical brushless WFSM topology employing the 3rd harmonic current injection-based field excitation scheme.

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.

Permanent magnet synchronous hub motors (PMSHMs) have been gradually introduced into the applications of electric vehicles. In order to output more torque, many researchers turned their research direction to six-phase motors. Because it is composed of two sets of three-phase windings, there will be interference between the windings, affecting the performance of the motor. In order to improve the steady and dynamic-state performance of permanent magnet six phase synchronous motor, a predictive torque control method based on multi vector model is proposed in this paper. Finally, experimental results show the effectiveness of this method.
