Özet:

Recently, much attention has been given to axial flux permanent magnet generators due to some advantages such as high efficiency, high power density, and higher torque compared to radial flux generators. In addition, increased number of poles makes them appropriate for low-speed applications such as wind power generators. In this study, an axial flux permanent magnet synchronous generator with unique features such as high power density is designed for small-scale wind turbines. The structure of generator includes a rotor and a stator. The generator is designed and then analyzed by Flux 11.2 software. The analysis includes the effects of air gap distance change with considering wind speed variations. Sinusoidal waveform of induction voltage with the acceptable harmonic characteristics confirms the optimized design of the generator.
