Optimizing the Structural Designs of Starter Generators for Hybrid Powertrain Vehicles

Resumo

Results of testing starter generators for hybrid powertrain vehicles are given. The objects of investigation were two starter generators with concentric teeth and a 3 × 2 distributed winding. The optimization is performed using a genetic algorithm in the Ansys Maxwell software package. The optimization of selecting a nonmagnetic gap to minimize the negative effect of the armature response to the excitation space of the permanent magnets is considered.
