Design of High Performance Flux Switching PM Machines with Concentrated Windings

摘要

This paper presents a procedure for determining the winding layout for the design of high performance flux switching permanent magnet (FSPM) machines with concentrated windings. Three winding configurations, namely, single-layer, double-layer and multilayer windings are illustrated. A comparison of the electromagnetic performance of the three winding configurations is made using finite element analysis. It may provide a useful reference to be considered in the FSPM machine design.
