Design Optimization of a Direct-Drive Electrically Excited Synchronous Generator for Tidal Wave Energy

Abstract: In the field of marine renewable energies, the extraction of marine currents by the use of tidal current turbines has led to many studies. In contrast to offshore wind turbines, the mass minimization is not necessarily the most important criterion. In that case, Direct-Drive Electrically Excited Synchronous Generators (EESG) can be an interesting solution in a context where the permanent magnet market is more and more stressed. In the particular case of a tidal turbine, the electric generator operates at varia… Show more

“…The airgap flux density created by the magnets is represented in Figure 1b. Under each pole, its magnitude is obtained from Ampere's law [22]. It can be written as a Fourier series, where each harmonic component, B h f (θ, θ r ) , of odd rank, h, is expressed as follows:…”

“…As a result of the optimization, an improvement was made at about 18% in mass. 19 In another study, magnet pole arc, magnet thickness, air-gap length, slot opening and stator inner radius parameters of the PMSM were determined as optimization parameters. High efficiency, high torque, low cogging torque, and low total harmonic distortion were determined as objective functions.…”
