This paper presents the influence of several structural factors and parameters involved in the design of Claw Pole Transvers Flux Permanent Magnet Machines (TFPMs) on their internal voltage. Knowing the influence of each factor is very important for an effective process of design and optimization for these machines. In this paper by using the complete design algorithm of Claw Pole TFPM, only one parameter is changed at a time and its influence on the internal voltage is analyzed. Output torque is also studied, because the internal voltage has effect on both the average and the ripple of output torque. The most important factors and parameters which are considered are: 1) number of poles; 2) length of air gap; 3) ratio of magnet arc to flux concentrator arc in each pole of rotor; 4) shape of pole shoe of stator and 5) area of rotor pole covered by stator pole. Due to geometrical complexities of TFPMs, analytical methods fail to describe the behavior of these machines. For this reason, in this paper finite element analysis is used both in the design and analysis of TFPMs.

This paper proposes a linear sandwiched switched flux permanent magnet (LSSFPM) machine and two double-sided linear switched flux permanent magnet (LSFPM) machines havingtoroidal windings. Bothmachines are optimized and then compared with the conventional 6-slot/5-pole LSFPM machine. It is found that the proposed machines exhibithigher magnet usage efficiencies than the conventional LSFPM machine, and the double-sided machines show shorter end-windings, which are benefited from toroidal windings. The performance, including back-EMF, cogging force and average thrust force, are analyzedby two-dimensional (2-D) finite element analysis (FEA).

A new type of transverse flux permanent magnet motor with surface-type permanent magnet rotor structure and silicon steel stator structure was designed. According to the new structure of transverse flux permanent magnet motor, the operating principle of the motor was given. The relationship among motor output torque, torque density, magnetic poles and winding parameters are deduced, and a reasonable method of designing motor size parameters was proposed. A three-dimensional finite element model of the motor was created and the model grid division was done using ANSYS finite element analysis software. According to different winding current values and different positions of stator and rotor, the motor magnetic flux density distribution, the output torque and inductance parameter were given through calculating the three dimensional finite element models. Finite element analysis results show that the new motor structure is reasonable.

This paper proposes a design method for the flux modulation poles (FMPs) formed on the stator of surface-mounted permanent magnet vernier machines (SPMVM) considering the winding configurations. In three types of the SPMVM with the different winding configurations, the FMP shapes to maximize the output torque are optimized by employing the analytical equations for the magneto-motive force (MMF) due to the windings, permeance, and flux density in the air-gap. Then, the validity of the optimal shapes for the FMPs is verified by the finite element analysis. It is found that the optimal FMP shapes are designed differently in the three types of the SPMVM and increase the output torque by different ratios according to the winding configurations. In addition, the experimental results for the prototype show that the proposed method can optimally design the FMP shape by analyzing mathematically the effects of the winding configuration and the FMP shape on the output torque of the SPMVM.
