Double-Stator PM Machine With 3rd Order Current Harmonic Injection

摘要

A double-stator PM machine having: an outer stator generating an outer electromagnetic field dependent on an outer three-phase supply current; an inner stator generating an inner electromagnetic field dependent on an inner three-phase supply current; a PM rotor rotated by the outer and inner electromagnetic fields between the outer and inner stators; and a control arrangement controlling the outer and inner supply currents. There is an electrical connection between neutral points of the outer and inner stators. The control arrangement is configured for controlling the outer and inner to supply currents such that there is a relative angle shift of 30° between the outer and inner supply currents and such that a third order current harmonic component is circulated between the outer and inner stators.
