Abstract
Aiming to design a generator with high reliability, high efficiency, and especially a constant output voltage over a wide speed range for hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), this paper proposes a novel topology of a hybrid excitation doubly salient generator with separate windings (HEDSGSW). The topology herein utilizes a hybrid excitation type of PMs and DC windings to generate parallel magnetic circuits. In addition, PMs are embedded in the magnetic bridge to insulate the excitation windings with armature windings. This design can achieve compactness, efficiency, and especially constant output capability over a wide speed range. The geometry and flux regulation principles, including magnetic flux circuits, are elaborated. After comparing three power generation modes, the most suitable mode, namely, the doubly salient generation 2 (DSG2) mode, is confirmed to ensure a stable voltage output performance. Then, considering the non-uniformity effect of the stator and rotor slots, the no-load back electromotive force (EMF) expressions are derived based on the EMF to air-gap relative permeance method. Furthermore, a 1 kW HEDSGSW FEA model, with an output voltage of 42 V and a rated speed of 6000 rpm, is built to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Finally, the operating properties of the HEDSGSW, such as no-load characteristics and adjustment characteristics, are analyzed to further verify the rationality of its magnetic flux circuit and the flexibility of the excitation regulation capability.
