description | Abstract The recently introduced Ring Winding Axial Flux Permanent magnet Motor (RW‐AFPM) is inspired by the yokeless structure of Yokeless and Segmented Armature (YASA) AFPMs and the partitioned‐phases configuration of transverse flux motors. Its potential application for rim‐driven electric ships propulsion has been examined in the previous studies and, here, it will be studied for ultra‐light direct‐drive electric boats. Owing to their specific structural features, the relatively large cogging torque of RW‐AFPMs seems to be a significant challenge for such applications. On the other hand, as investigated in previous studies, cogging torque reduction methods, such as conventional skewing, seem unsuitable for this type of machine. Thus, this paper will address the cogging torque issue via a comprehensive pole shape analysis. The results will be useful for all kinds of partitioned‐phases topologies that have high specific torque capability but suffer from large cogging effects. All analyses are performed via 3D‐FE models, the accuracy of which is pre‐verified through experiments. |
