Abstract

An electric machine topology characterized by single tooth winding in both stator and rotor is presented. The proposed machine is capable of operating as a direct drive double fed wind generator (DDDF, D3F), because it requires no gearbox. A wind turbine drive built around a D3F generator is cheaper to manufacture, requires less maintenance and has a higher energy yield than its conventional counterparts. The all tooth wound generator of a D3F turbine has a superb volume utilisation and lower stator I2R losses due to its extremely short end windings, efficient cooling and reduced active length. Both stator and rotor of a D3F generator can be manufactured in segments, which simplifies its assembly and transportation to the site, and makes its production cheaper.
