Abstract

Permanent magnet vernier machines (PMVMs) are recognized as the most promising candidates for high-torque direct-drive applications. However, their market penetration is hindered by the low power factor. This paper aims to address the low-power-factor challenge, by employing the concept of low-coupling winding. As compared with two conventional PMVMs, the proposed PMVM with low-coupling winding exhibits a substantially improved power factor. To objectively evaluate the potential of the proposed PMVM, a comprehensive comparison between the proposed PMVM and the conventional permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) is conducted. The no-load back-EMF, output torque, power factor, core losses, and efficiency are compared under various operating conditions, encompassing the entire torque-speed range. The strengths and weaknesses of the PMVM are analyzed, and the most promising application scenarios are suggested. Finally, a prototype of the proposed PMVM is fabricated to validate the analysis and comparison results.
