Development of a New Stator Module Type Vernier Motor utilizing Amorphous Cut Core

This paper presents a new stator module type vernier motor, which is applicable amorphous magnetic material effectively as a stator core material. The iron loss distribution in the stator module structure made of a Fe-based amorphous material is numerically investigated with the finite element method and compared with those made of oriented electrical steel sheets and non-oriented electrical steel sheets in a wound core pattern. The results show that the proposed model is useful to improve significantly efficiency of the vernier motor model.
