Abstract
This paper presents a class of multiphase electric machines with axially laminated anisotropic (ALA( passive rotors. Unipolar, two-level bipolar, and sinusoidal current modes are identified. The reluctance variation in ALA rotor is computed for a wide range of airgaps and pole pitches. High ratios of inductances along d and q axes yield high torque densities. Special attention is paid to the sinusoidal current mode through a quantitative comparison with the induction and PM synchronous counterparts with the same stator. It is demonstrated that the ALA rotor sinusoidal current synchronous motor is superior in all respects to the induction motor and almost equals the performance (torque density, efficiency, power factor( the PM synchronous motor.Keywords
