Abstract: Similar to armature back electromotive force (armature back-EMF), the back-EMF also exists in the field winding of hybrid excited machines. However, the existence of field back electromotive force (field back-EMF) is harmful to the safe and stable operation of machine systems, e.g., higher losses, lower efficiency, higher torque ripple, and reduced control performance. This paper systematically investigates the influence of armature/field winding configurations together with stator/rotor pole combinations on the field back-EMF ripple in hybrid excited machines with switched-flux stators. The two-dimensional (2D) time-stepping finite element modeling and prototyping experiments are used for the research. The investigated field and armature coil pitches equal to 1, i.e., non-overlapped windings. The influential factors that are investigated in this paper mainly include the number of layers of field/armature windings, the number of field/armature coils, and the stator/rotor pole combinations. The results show that the field back-EMF’s harmonic order and peak-to-peak value are closely associated with field/armature winding configurations and stator/rotor pole combinations under various conditions. Finally, for validation of the results predicted by the finite element method, a prototype machine is built and tested. Overall, non-overlapped double-layer armature and field windings are recommended for the hybrid excited switched flux machines with various stator/rotor pole combinations to realize relatively lower field back-EMF under different conditions.
