Magnet Shape Optimization of Two-Layer Spoke-Type Axial Flux Interior Permanent Magnet Machines

In this paper, the two-layer spoke-type (TLST) axial flux interior permanent magnet (AFIPM) machine is proposed. Simple flux barriers are added to optimize the air gap flux density, in which way there is no need to change the surface of the rotor. The optimization principle is revealed and the advan...
