This paper deals with the magnet pole shape design for the minimization of cogging torque in permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM). New shapes of permanent magnet are proposed. The magnet shape is modeled analytically by a set of stacked and well dimensioned layers relatively to the height and opening angle. The final shape of magnet is configured by using three models in view of obtaini...

A variety of techniques exist for reducing the cogging torque of conventional radial flux PM machines. This paper presents an application of two cogging torque minimization techniques in which the permanent magnets are skewed in a conventional manner and the stator slots are closed with soft magnetic composite material. The comparative analysis of the different motor designs regarding the coggi...

Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Generators (PMSGs) exhibit high efficiency and power density, and have already been employed in gearless wind turbines. In the gearless wind turbines, due to the removal of the gearbox, the cogging torque is an important issue. Therefore, in this paper, at first, design of a Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Generator for a 2MW gearless horizontal-axis wind turbine, acco...
