Abstract

In this study, a torque enhancement principle for a stator permanent-magnet (PM) Vernier machine with a consequent pole structure is proposed. The novelty of the manuscript is the explanation of how stator PM Vernier machines benefit from consequent pole structure. Although a similar concept of stator PM Vernier machines with a consequent pole structure has been investigated in previous studies, a clear torque enhancement principle was absent. The keys to torque enhancement are the decrement of nonworking harmonics and increment of working harmonics. To demonstrate these phenomena, the torque contributions from the harmonics were calculated. Subsequently, the performances of the conventional machine and consequent pole machine were compared to verify the enhancement principle. The electromagnetic performances, including the back electromotive force and torque, were compared. The results show that the stator PM Vernier machine benefits significantly from torque enhancement using the consequent pole structure, and the torque enhancement principle was verified.
