AbstractThe permanent magnet(PM) generator direct-driven A

by wind turbine has the advantages of high efficiency, simple
structure and reliable operation. How to improve the
performance and operation reliability, reduce the cost of the
machine by proper choice of the phase number is an important
problem to be solved for the design of a direct-driven PM wind
generator. In the paper, the characteristics of a 1.5MW
permanent magnet generator directly driven by wind turbine B
with low speed, large poles and big volume are analyzed based on C
circuit-field coupled finite element method. Under the same
(a)
volume, performance of multi-phase permanent magnet A1
generator is compared and analyzed by redundancy technology -C -D1
during one or more stator winding open-circuit situation. 360
