Abstract

This paper deals with a structural optimization to maximize the no-load flux control capability of a double excitation synchronous machine (DESM). The air-gap flux in this machine type can be regulated by controlling the field currents. In this paper, this curve in the no-load condition is referred to as the flux control range (FCR). Maximizing the gap between the minimum-flux and maximizing the maximum-flux points of this curve is targeted to improve the controlling effectiveness of the field windings, and reduce field winding’s copper losses. This gap is affected by two factors: the magnetic saturation and thermal limits of the machine. Thermal analyses are rarely focused for the DESM type in the literature. The contribution of this paper is to maximize the FCR gap taking into account the thermal limitation. In addition, a general guide for the DESM design will be also discussed.
