Abstract

In this paper, the design and performance analysis of a high-efficiency permanent-magnet synchronous wave generator (PSWG) are presented. A systematic approach for the design of the outer rotor was proposed as a prototype model. The magnetic field, magnetic circuit characteristics, electrical characteristics of the generator, and optimal design parameters such as the pole–arc ratio and shoe outer length were determined using the Taguchi method, finite-element analysis (FEA) software, and rotor skewing techniques. The proposed six series and six parallel-connection winding configurations can provide an evenly distributed current for practical applications. A PSWG was designed and fabricated according to the proposed methodology. According to the experimental results by implementing the optimized design, the efficiencies of the proposed PSWG which used 3.6 Ω load at 300 rpm is 86.32% and the efficiency error between simulation and experiment is less than 1.8%. It verifies the feasibility of the proposed method to PSWG and the structural reliability optimization design.
