Abstract
Compared with the conventional permanent magnet (PM) machines, the flux-switching permanent magnet (FSPM) machine exhibits higher torque ripple due to its special doubly salient structure and high air-gap flux density, leading to the deterioration of smooth operation. In this article, the output torque ripple suppression methods of FSPM machines from both rotor and stator sides are proposed with the aid of general air-gap field modulation theory. According to harmonic modulation mechanism, air-gap PM field can be modified by revising harmonic content of rotor and stator modulation functions and, consequently, three concepts, including cos-shaped edge rotor (CSER), cos-shaped edge stator, and double cos-shaped edge, are proposed and implemented to suppress the output torque ripple due to the cogging torque and electromagnetic torque ripple of FSPM machines. Finally, finite-element analysis and experiments are conducted to verify the proposed approaches. The results reveal that the CSER method exhibits the most effective suppression effect.
