Design and Comparison of Outer Rotor Bonded Magnets Halbach Motor With Different Topologies

The outer rotor Halbach cylinder motor is designed for hybrid electric vehicle application. The Halbach cylinder is made of bonded magnet and hence the design presented is high torque density motor with low remanence magnet. Different slots poles combinations for double layer tooth coil winding is also evaluated to find the best combination. The Halbach cylinder motor is also compared with different other motor topologies. The outer rotor Halbach motor has the highest torque compared to other topologies over the whole speed range. Variations of inductance and flux linkage of different topologies are also studied and are presented in the articl
