Investigation of magnetic coupling of phases in a novel transverse flux machine by consideration of self- and mutual- inductance

This paper performs an analysis on the magnetic coupling of phases for a novel transverse flux machine (TFM) by comparison of the values of self- and mutual- inductance. It is shown that the proposed TFM inherits the merit of magnetic decoupling of phases as in traditional TFM, and thus can readily achieve fault-tolerant operation and high-precision control.
