Abstract

This chapter lays the basis for the rest of this thesis. A thorough analysis is first performed on the MMF produced by different FSCW configurations, based on which, FSCW stators are classified into “classes” and “categories”, each of them with their own distinct features. Lumped equations are then proposed for different stator categories. The harmonic winding factors of the different FSCW stator categories are then formulated based on which the flux linkages and back-EMFs are calculated. A case-study is then investigated to evaluate the application of the proposed equations in the selection process for the most appropriate slot and pole combination for application-oriented FSCW stators.
