Permanent magnet flux-switching machine (PMFSM) is a relatively new structure. Available literatures mainly focused on its general design procedure and performance analysis. In this paper, Finite Element Method (FEM) is taken to ana-lyze various design techniques to reduce the cogging torque in a prototype 12/10-pole PMFSM.
