Influence of Stator/Rotor Torque Ratio on Torque Performance in External-Rotor Dual-Armature Flux-Switching PM Machines by Zijie Zuo, Yidong Du, Lei Yu

“…Then, this paper investigates the influence of torque ratio on average torque under the same copper loss. It is found that the average torque decreases with torque ratio increasing due to the reduction of the positive torque component generated by the sixth airgap field harmonics and the rise in the negative torque component from the eighth harmonics. …”
