3-Dimensional (3D) Flux Motor
Pursuing high torque density has always been a research hotspot in the field of traction motor applications. 3-Dimensional (3D) flux motor, which currently is investigating in IMRA, is one of potential solutions to enhance the torque density. Multi-air gaps together with integrated radial-flux and axial-flux structure are the features of 3D flux motor. Based on the existing motor topologies, IMRA systematically analyses the effects of axial and radial electrically independent/dependent and magnetically independent/dependent combinations as well as the corresponding winding configurations and core materials. Currently, IMRA is constantly looking for the novel motor topologies. Meanwhile, as the benchmarks, the conventional motor topologies are investigating under the same conditions.
