Abstract
This paper presents a two-dimensional analytical model for brushless double-rotor flux-switching permanent magnet machines (BDRPFSPMM) with yokeless stator recognized as a type of partitioned-structure flux-switching permanent magnet that is an appropriate machine to be employed as the electric motor in industry. The most salient advantages of the proposed machine are low iron loss due to volume of iron in stator and high space of stator slot for winding. The radial and tangential components of the magnetic flux density due to permanent magnets and armature currents in each active domain of the machine, electromagnetic torque, self- and mutual inductance, unbalanced magnetic force (UMF), and local traction are calculated based on the subdomain method. Teethes on both rotor and stator structures are effective on magnetic quantities, so interactions of rotor and stator saliency are considered. The method is general for the magnetic field calculation with any combination of rotor- and stator-pole number. To validate the proposed model, the analytical outputs are compared with those obtained from the finite element method (FEM).
