Prototype development of a fully coreless multi-stage axial-flux permanent-magnet machine (AFPM) through the performance comparison between single-stator double-rotor (SSDR) and double-stator single-rotor (DSSR) configurations

Cascading rotor and stator in axial flux permanent magnet (AFPM) machine is a beneficial concept to increase the power density without increasing the diameter of the machine. Multi-stage AFPM can provide higher torque capability in applications requiring high power density. In this regard single-sta...
