The aim of this paper is to present the structure of a new flux switching synchronous machine with hybrid excitation. This machine uses the flux switching principle where all the active parts are located on the stator. The rotor is only a salient passive rotor and can be robust and made with a low cost technology. This new machine can be supplied with electricity by means of a traditional three phase voltage converter or can be associated with a diode rectifier. The hybrid excitation is an association of permanent magnets and a wound exciter.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
