THE MAGNETIC ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF NEW TYPE AXIAL FLUX SWITCHED

In this study, a new SRM structure with lower flux than high torque and conventional winding structure is proposed in Switched Reluctance Motors (SRM). Unlike conventional SRM motors, the winding are not directly rolled over poles in the new structure. Windings are placed to somewhere closer to rotor as three layered and isolated from one another. Rotor poles which will move on both sides of each phase winding have been created. Thus, the flux created in phase windings completes its circle from stator poles and rotor poles axially. With this feature, it is different from conventional SRMs and named as axial flux switched reluctance motor (AF-SRM). The 3D magnetic analysis and parametric analysis of the proposed motor geometry have been realized in ANSYS Maxwell program. The prototype of the proposed structure has been made and experimental results and simulation results have been compared
