In this paper, a DC-link structure feasible for integration with the circumscribing polygon modular integrated drives is proposed. The proposed DC-link structure combines both the DC-link capacitors and the busbar together and integrates them with the machine and the converter modules without increasing the outer diameter of the integrated machine/converter structure. A generic design methodology for the proposed DC-link structure is provided and applied on a reconfigurable fifteen stator coils concentrated winding axial flux machine for all its possible phase configurations. The design methodology presented in this paper involves the determination of the required DC-link capacitance and the multi-physics design of the bus-bar. The parasitics of the bus-bar part of the proposed DC-link structure are evaluated using electromagnetic FEM models and their influence on the DC-link waveforms is evaluated. Due to the expected high ambient temperature inside an integrated drive, electromagnetic and CFD models are developed for the proposed DC-link structure to evaluate the loss density and the temperature distribution of the bus-bar to ensure reliable operation. An experimental setup is built to validate the design methodology.
