Research on Operation of Low-Speed and High-Torque Module Combined Stator Permanent Magnetic Fault-Tolerant Motor With Unequal Span Winding

Permanent magnetic fault-tolerant motors have been developed rapidly due to their high reliability and have been widely used in many special fields. Compared with the conventional module fault-tolerant motor, the module combined stator permanent magnetic fault-tolerant motor (MCS-PMFTSM) with unequal span winding has two sizes of span coils in each operation module, which realizes the electrical decoupling and mechanical decoupling between the module motors and solves the problem that the span of the double-layer winding of the conventional modular fault-tolerant motor can only be 1. Winding parameters of the unequal span are calculated, on the basis of which the operation performance of MCS-PMFTSM can be analyzed. The performance of MCS-PMFTSM in the normal operation and three failure operations (open circuit failure, Short circuit fault, concurrent failure) are analyzed by finite element method, which proves that it has good fault tolerance. The 12kW100r/min MCS-PMFTSM prototype is tested to verify the correctness of the analysis method and the rationality of the proposed MCS-PMFTSM.
