Optimal Design of an Outer-rotor Flux-switching Permanent Magnet Motor for High Speed Operation

Flux Switching Permanent Magnet Motor using Segmented Outer Rotor Structure for Electric Scooter

Flux switching motor is a type of electric machine that locates both flux source and armature windings on the stator leaving its rotor a simple piece of iron. This machine was developed by combining the toothed stator structure of induction machine and the toothed rotor structure of switched reluctance machine together. Furthermore, it has three types of flux sources which include permanent mag...

A Novel High-Performance Field-Weakening Control for Axial Flux-Switching Permanent-Magnet Motor

By combining the field-weakening control principle of a new axial flux-switching permanent-magnet motor (AFFSSPM) with the space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) and maximum torque per voltage (MTPV) control principle, a novel field-weakening control strategy for AFFSSPM is proposed in this paper. In the first stage of the field-weakening, the difference between the reference voltage updat...

A Novel Modular-Stator Outer-Rotor Flux-Switching Permanent-Magnet Motor

A novel modular-stator outer-rotor flux-switching permanent-magnet (MSOR-FSPM) motor is proposed and studied in this paper. Structure, operation and design principles of the MSOR-FSPM motor are introduced and analyzed. Considering that the combination of different pole number and slot number has a great influence on the motor performance, the optimum rotor pole number for the 12-stator-slot MSO...

Optimal Design of Axial Flux Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor for Electric Vehicle Applications Using GAand FEM

Axial Flux Permanent Magnet (AFPM) machines are attractive candidates for Electric Vehicles (EVs) applications due to their axial compact structure, high efficiency, high power and torque density. This paper presents general design characteristics of AFPM machines. Moreover, torque density of the machine which is selected as main objective function, is enhanced by using Genetic Algorithm (GA) a...
