Abstract
In this paper, a dual-rotor slotless axial-flux permanent magnet (AFPM) motor with equidirectional toroidal winding (ED-TW) is proposed and compared with the AFPM motor with traditional toroidal winding (T-TW) with the same dimensions, number of coils and poles. Different from the T-TW, only the positive sides of coils of the ED-TW are left on one side of the stator core, the return sides of the coils are all removed to the other side of the stator core. Firstly, the structure and operation principle of the two motors are introduced and analyzed. To clarify the features of the ED-TW, the synthetic electromotive force (EMF) vector and armature reaction field of the ED-TW and T-TW are studied. Secondly, the main size equations of the AFPM motors with toroidal windings are presented. Subsequently, the electromagnetic characteristics of the AFPM motors with ED-TW and T-TW are analyzed and compared based on the three-dimensional finite element method (3D-FEM). The comparison results indicate that the AFPM motor with ED-TW has superiority in torque density and efficiency. Finally, a prototype of the AFPM motor with ED-TW is manufactured and tested, which validates the feasibility of the proposed motor and the correctness of the analysis of the 3D-FEM.
