Abstract

Nowadays, axial flux permanent magnet generators have been widely used in practice, such as: electric vehicles, renewable energy (e.g., wind energy, submersible energy), because they have advantages of the high working efficiency, high power density and low noise. In particular, its structure is simple in comparison with normal generators. Moreover, the structure of these generators is usually a type of disc, with the larger diameter rotor. Thus, it is very suitable for electric drives of the high torque and low speed. Otherwise, in order to increase the power supply, it can be used the multi-disc making more stages together. In this research, the main dimensions of the two generators have been successfully computed and analytically designed and the influence of armature reactions of axial flux permanent magnet generators with different loads is proposed via a finite element method.
