Abstract

The windings of coreless axial flux permanent-magnet machine (CAFPM) are exposed to the rotor magnetic field, where each back electromotive force (EMF) harmonic is induced not only by several different spatial field harmonics but also by the winding distribution. In order to reduce the time harmonics of back EMF for CAFPM with non-overlapping winding, one new winding structure with non-uniform distributed coils is proposed in this paper, in which the coils are arranged in a non-uniform way with annular distribution in the stator. Firstly, the relationship between uniform and non-uniform distributed windings is analyzed based on the phasor diagram of each coil EMF, and the analytical expression of back EMF under non-uniform distributed windings is established. Secondly, key performance indexes under different working states, like no-load, are investigated by three dimensional (3-D) finite element analysis (FEA). Finally, comprehensive experiments are carried out to verify related theoretical analysis, which demonstrate that the non-uniform distributed windings can effectively reduce the time harmonics and increase the working efficiency.
