Abstract: The paper presents 3D-FEA results of electromagnetic torque characteristics of a Field Control Axial Flux Permanent Magnet Machine (FCAFPMM) obtained for different pole shapes. The influence of the angular span of iron and permanent magnet poles on the cogging torque performance has been analysed at different excitations of an additional stator winding.
