Abstract :
This paper presents the design and optimization of a Permanent Magnet Transverse Flux Machine. The design procedure takes into account a script-based, 3D Finite Elements simulation and some additional analytical equations to obtain the full performance of the machine. A Genetic Algorithm optimization method is used in order to achieve the best possible relationship among mechanical power, efficiency and volume. The results will be compared to the actual machine.
