Abstract

This paper presents a novel topology of a dual-rotor hybrid excitation motor (DRHEM), which combines outer permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) and inner doubly salient electromagnetic motor (DSEM). The structure and combination criterion of the DRHEM are introduced and studied. A new type of intermediate stator structure has been adopted and fixed in the form of stator fasteners. The electromagnetic field of the motor is analyzed, and optimization methods are proposed for reducing the cogging torque and superimposing the back electromotive force. Furthermore, to verify the theoretical analysis, experimental tests are conducted, and the torque-speed and output power-speed characteristics are compared under various speeds conditions. The results verify the electromagnetic design well.
