A novel doubly salient single phase permanent magnet generator

Abstract
This paper presents the principles of operation, design and transient analysis of a newly developed single phase doubly salient permanent magnet (DSPM) generator. Design equations, finite element, and dynamic analysis of the new generator are described. The single phase DSPM generator has an extremely simple structure with two permanent magnets and four poles wound equipped with armature windings. The rotor of the variable reluctance machine has six poles and is laminated iron without windings. Both stator and rotor have a salient pole structure. Hence, the machine has the inverse geometry of recently reported three phase DSPM motor topologies.
