Abstract
An example system includes a dynamo-electric machine. The dynamo-electric machine includes a rotor that is cylindrical and that is configured for rotation and a stator that is arranged relative to the rotor. The stator has a stepped configuration that defines a first diameter for the stator and a second diameter for the stator. The first diameter is greater than the second diameter. Zones of the stator at the first diameter hold direct-axis (D-axis) windings and zones of the stator at the second diameter hold quadrature axis (Q-axis) windings. An airgap between the rotor and the Q-axis windings is greater than an airgap between the rotor and the D-axis windings.
Claims29
A system comprising a dynamo-electric machine, the dynamo-electric machine comprising:
- a rotor that is cylindrical and that is configured for rotation;
- and
- a stator that is arranged relative to the rotor, the stator having a stepped configuration that defines a first diameter for the stator and a second diameter for the stator, the first diameter being greater than the second diameter, where zones of the stator at the first diameter hold direct-axis (D-axis) windings and where zones of the stator at the second diameter hold quadrature axis (Q-axis) windings, and where an airgap between the rotor and the Q-axis windings is greater than an airgap between the rotor and the D-axis windings.
