Abstract

This thesis is principally concerned with the theoretical modelling, design,
manufacture, performance testing, and development of a new type of low-cost
electronically-commutated doubly-salient wound-field brushless DC-motor,
named the flux-switching motor. The drive-system that was designed, and
developed, was specifically intended to be used in a low-power application (2.5
horsepower, less than 2 kW output-power), according to a given specification
Extensive testing using four prototype motors has been carried out in
attempting to satisfy the specification. From this testing empirical modelling
techniques have been demonstrated to be of use in the design of such motors.
The motor is showing excellent promise for the future, when it should become a
realistic alternative to currently available motors on the market.
