A Novel Dual-Consequent-Pole Transverse Flux Motor and Its Analytical Modeling.

In this article, a novel dual-consequent-pole transverse flux motor and its analytical model are proposed. Differ from existed transverse flux machines, the proposed motor owns core-tooth-to-magnet types of the consequent-pole configuration on both stator and rotor. This unique motor configuration improves the no-load permanent magnet flux linkage interlinking with armature winding, thus leading to an enhanced torque density. The structure and working principle of the proposed motor are introduced as the first half part. Then, based on the combination of equivalent magnetic circuit method and subdomain method, an analytical modeling method is proposed to estimate the electromagnetic performance of the proposed motor. The parameters of the equivalent magnetic circuit model, e.g., the magnetomotive force and reluctances are calculated based on the subdomain model technique, considering the influence of the cores’ saturation and the axial end effect during calculation. Based on the magnetic field distribution result, the electromagnetic performance is estimated. The analytical results are verified by both the finite-element method and the prototype experiment.
