Abstract

A three-dimensional analytical modeling of the magnetic field of the stator-ironless axial flux permanent magnet (AFPM) machine under open-circuit condition is presented in this paper. It involves the analytical solution of the governing field equations in the region between back-irons in the cylindrical coordinate, in which the magnets are assumed to be axially magnetized and have constant relative recoil permeability. The proposed modeling method is applied to a specific AFPM machine, and the analytical results are in good agreement with those of three-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA).
