Performance Analysis of 12S-10P HEFSM with Various Flux Bridges

Abstract:

Flux switching machine (FSMs) with several advantages of robust rotor structure, high reliability, high efficiency and high torque density have been develop in recent years. Among several types of FSM, HEFSM gives extra advantage at variable flux capabilities suitable for higher load conditions. However, the developed C-Type has a problem of separated stator core which lead to difficulty in manufacturing design as well as flux leakage to the outer stator. In order to solve the problem, iron flux bridges have been introduced to the stator core. Because of that, the separated stator core becomes the single piece of core. In this paper, various topologies of iron flux bridges is introduced and overviewed. Performances of torque at various flux bridge is analyzed and compared. This analysis is verified by Finite Element Analysis (2D-FEA).
