Design and analysis of double 6/3 transverse flux bearingless switched reluctance motor

Abstract

Abstract A novel dual 6/3 Transverse Flux Bearingless Switched Reluctance Motor is proposed to solve the coupling problem between torque and suspension of conventional Switched Reluctance Motor. The working principle is introduced in detail, the motor is modelled by ANSYS, and the accurate mathematical model of the suspension force is deduced and verified. The electromagnetic characteristics of the motor are simulated, and the torque characteristics, suspension characteristics and the coupling characteristics between them are verified. The simulation results show that the torque and suspension force can be stabilised by using the zoning control of torque and suspension force, and the decoupling between torque and suspension force is excellent.
