Abstract
This paper introduces a new conflguration for a two phase fleld assisted hybrid switched reluctance generator, which can operate in motoring mode as well. This concept allows higher output power production compare to standard SRG. The proposed novel generator consists of two magnetically independent stator and rotor sets (layers), where each stator set includes four salient poles with windings wrapped around them, while the rotor comprises of two salient poles with difierent arc lengths and no windings. There is a stationary reel, which has the fleld coils wrapped around it and is placed between the two-stator sets. In this format, the developed magnetic fleld from the stator poles travels to the rotor then to the rotor shaft and flnally completes its path via the generator housing. To evaluate the generator performance, two types of analysis, namely the numerical technique and the experimental study have been utilized. The analysis is carried out for the machine in self exited generator mode as well as fleld assisted mode. In the numerical analysis, the flnite element analysis is employed, whereas in the experimental study, a proto-type generator has been built and tested.
