A Novel Hybrid Excitation Flux Reversal Machine for Electric Vehicle Propulsion.

A novel hybrid excitation flux reversal machine (HEFRM) is developed for application in electric vehicle propulsion. The proposed machine has a simple reluctance rotor and a stator with conventional ac armature windings and concentrated dc field windings. Besides, there are also permanent magnets (PMs) on the stator teeth. The PMs on each tooth have the same polarity, and the PMs on the adjacent t...
