This paper aims to proposes a new topology of axial flux permanent magnet hysteresis motor with a single-disc rotor.
In this paper, first, the main equations of the permanent magnet hysteresis motor with a single-disc rotor design are presented. Then, the permanent magnet hysteresis motor with single-disc rotor has been precisely simulated by finite element method using the Preisach model (for modeling semi-hard material). Subsequently, the diameters of the permanent magnet and semi-hard material have been optimized by sensitivity analysis in finite element method.
By adding a ring magnet to axial flux hysteresis (semi-hard magnetic material) motor, ability to increase torque in steady state is provided. In the starting state, the semi-hard material produces torque while in the steady state, the torque is produced by both the semi-hard material and the permanent magnet. The results show that due to the proper combination of the permanent magnet and semi-hard material, and choosing optimum diameters for them, the resultant torque is desirably high for both steady and starting states.
