In this paper, the cogging torques were calculated for 1kw double-sided axial flux permanent magnet (AFPM) generator with different stator core pole arrangements. The generator is composed of 18 stator pole and 24 rotating field magnets on each side. The cogging torques of the generator with three types of arrangements of stator poles were calculated using 3D finite element method and the optimum core shape was determined to minimize the cogging torque.
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.
