Abstract

This paper proposes a novel hybrid reluctance machine with zero-sequence current and dual-layer slot PMs excitation. Dual slot PMs are utilized to evoke DC-saturation-relieving and flux modulation effect, respectively. By introducing zero-sequence current excitation acting as invented DC field source, extra DC field winding can be removed. Moreover, the flux can be flexibly controlled through regulating zero sequence current for the machine speed range extension. In this paper, the machine configuration, DC-saturation-relieving principle, and flux modulation principle are introduced. In addition, the usage of dual-layer slot PMs and zero sequence current ratio are considered to obtain optimal torque performance. By using finite element analysis, the overall electromagnetic performance of the proposed machine is evaluated, including flux-linkage, no-load back-EMF, as well as steady torque with different zero-sequence currents. Further, the excellent flux regulation ability of zero-sequence current is verified, which can extend the speed range of proposed machine for electric vehicle propulsion.
