Abstract
This paper proposes a new high-temperature superconductor (HTS) dual-rotor flux-switching machine for direct-drive wind energy conversion. The key is to adopt dual-rotor structure to improve utilizations of the HTS excitation field and the machine space, thus achieving a high power density. Also, the HTS excitation can easily achieve flexible flux regulation to keep armature voltage constant under time-varying wind speeds. The operation principle, with emphasis on the effect of relative position of both rotors on the magnetic circuits, is described in details. And the initial machine design, especially the split ratio optimization, has been done. By using the finite element analysis, the machine performances are analyzed, and its validity is verified.
