This paper reviews the modularity techniques in the stator manufacture of permanent magnet machines for different applications. Some basic concepts of modular machines are firstly introduced. Modular machines for several typical applications are then described in details, including domestic appliances, automobiles and electric vehicles, more electric aircrafts and civic applications, wind power generators, etc. Besides, the influence of manufacture tolerance gaps and flux barriers on the electromagnetic performance is discussed.
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.
