Abstract
In this paper, a novel magnetic gear integrated brushless permanent magnet machine is studied. The main merit of the machine is that the torque produced by the stator windings can be transmitted between the low-speed rotor and the high-speed rotor through the modulation of ferromagnetic pole pieces; hence it can output a large torque at a low speed. The operating principle of the machine is discussed and its steady-state and transient performances are analyzed using circuit-field-motion coupled time-stepping finite element method. Detailed analysis about its gear ratio, cogging torque, core losses, and power factor are reported. Theoretical analysis agrees well with the FEM computation results.
