  1. 1. CFD Simulations of Velocity and Temperature Distributions of the AuraGen Axial Flux Machine

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Huanyu Chen; [2022]
    Keywords : CFD simulation; Induction machine; Temperature distribution; Velocity distribution; CFD-simulering; Hastighetsfördelning; Induktionsmaskin; Temperaturfördelning;

    Abstract : Axial flux induction machines are attractive solutions for electric vehicle applications nowadays. Thanks to their high torque density and no need for rare-earth material for permanent magnets, axial flux induction machines are the most used electric machine type with good performance and low prices.

  2. 2. Development of Test Rig and Experimental Evaluation of Hydrostatic Bearings for an Axial Flux Machine

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Amir Avdic; Kishore-Babu Vejendla; [2022]
    Keywords : viscous losses; hydrostatic bearing; hydrodynamics; thin oil film.; Viskösa förluster; generator; hydrostatiska lager; hydrodynamik; tunn oljefilm.;

    Abstract : A novel electric machine design, similar to an axial flux machine, incorporates hydrostatic bearings to increase efficiency and stability of said machine. In this thesis, the feasibility of a hydrostatic solution is explored and evaluated by development, manufacturing, and assembly of a test rig, as well as running experimental tests with it.

  3. 3. Electromagnetic Sizing of Axial-Flux Induction Machines and Experimental Validation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Leonardo Colombo; [2021]
    Keywords : Sizing algorithm; Double-stator axial-flux machines; Finite-element method; Material identification.; Dimensioneringsalgoritm; Dubbel statoriska axiella flödesinduktionsmaskiner; Finita-element metoden; Material-identifieringsprocedurer;

    Abstract : With a rising drive towards greener means of transportation, electrical machines for propulsion are becoming a scientific field of major interest. In particular, part of the research studying these devices focuses its efforts on axial-flux machines, which compared to radial-flux machines can offer a better length-to-diameter ratio and higher torque arm for similar ratings.

  4. 4. Design and Simulation of a Slotless Aircored PM Synchronous Generator

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Bakhtiyar Asef Hasnain; Ademir Hodzic; [2020]
    Keywords : Slotless; Aircored; PM; Permanent Magnet; PMSG; Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator; SPMSG; COMSOL; FEMM; FEM; Solidworks; Fusion 360; Axial Flux Generator;

    Abstract : This thesis is a study on an unconventional slow speed direct drive permanent magnet (PM) generator. Unlike a standard permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) which has the copper coils wound around iron teeth, the work in this thesis will present a generator where the copper coils are directly mounted on the stator which eliminates the slots and teeth in the generator.

  5. 5. Analytical Approach to Understanding the Tooth Height Variations of the Stator in an Axial Flux Machine and its Impact on the Airgap

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Louise Lövgren; [2019]
    Keywords : Stator; axial flux machine; Höganäs; Soft Magnetic Composites; SMC; Somaloy; flatness; tooth height; airgap; crimping; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Höganäs AB is developing an axial flux machine, where an even airgap between the stator and rotor is a vital parameter when designing a well functioning machine. It is believed that the stator is the component that introduces the biggest variations to the airgap, and that is why the stator is the object of investigation for this thesis. READ MORE
