Abstract

Using a consequent pole structure has been common in radial flux machines, and no axial flux machine with a consequent pole structure has been produced so far. This article aims to design an example of an axial flux generator with a simple structure that will reduce magnet consumption, cogging torque, and manufacturing cost without changing the nominal specifications. The proposed generator has a double-sided structure with a sector coil and poles. N identical poles (with only N sequence and iron poles between them) are installed on the rotor and the stator is placed between the rotors. The stator consists of coils that are wrapped concentrically around the teeth. The three-dimensional finite-element numerical methods have been used to evaluate the proposed generator's characteristics. The simulation results of the proposed generator show that the intended goals have been well achieved.
