Abstract

The stator coreless axial flux permanent magnet (AFPM) motor with a compact structure, low torque ripple, and high efficiency is particularly suitable as a motor for electric propulsion systems. However, it still requires great effort to design an AFPM motor with higher torque density and lower torque ripple. In this paper, a stator coreless multidisc AFPM (SCM-AFPM) motor with a three-rotor and two-stator topology is proposed. To reduce rotor mass and increase torque density, the proposed SCM-AFPM motor adopts the hybrid permanent magnets (PMs) array with Halbach PMs in the two-terminal rotor and the conventional PMs array in the middle rotor. In addition, a multi-objective optimization model combining response surface method (RSM) and genetic algorithm (GA) is proposed and applied to the proposed SCM-AFPM motor. With the help of the three-dimensional finite-element analysis (3-D FEA), it is found that the torque ripple of the optimized SCM-AFPM motor is 4.73%, while it is 6.21% for the initial motor. Its torque ripple is reduced by 23.8%. Therefore, the proposed multi-objective optimization design method can quickly and reliably obtain the optimal design of the SCM-AFPM motor.
