2025 January - 54 articles

Cover Story: This paper investigates the electromagnetic performance of radial-flux dual-rotor permanent magnet (DRPM) machines with series (SDRPM) and parallel (PDRPM) magnetic circuits, considering various slot/pole number combinations, stator winding configurations, and machine dimensions. The results show that the PDRPM machine with a tooth coil (TC) winding achieves superior PM utilisation compared to the PDRPM with a toroidal winding (TW) and the SDRPM with a TC winding across different slot/pole combinations. The TW-PDRPM is optimal for large-radius, short-axial-length applications due to its reduced end-winding length, whereas the TC-PDRPM is better suited for small-radius, long-axial-length applications. Additionally, the TC-SDRPM exhibits improved performance with increased outer radius and axial length. View this paper
